International Investment Patterns

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 2008, vol. 90, issue 3, 538-549

Abstract: We provide a systematic analysis of the bilateral factors driving portfolio equity holdings across countries. We find that bilateral equity holdings are strongly correlated with bilateral trade in goods and services. Larger bilateral positions are also associated with proxies for informational proximity.
