Abstract: We use a general equilibrium model to examine the welfare effect of domestic equity requirements on multinational firms in the presence of alternative types of trade instruments and varying degrees of the mobility of foreign capital. It turns out that, under quotas, raising equity requirements improves welfare in the short run but reduces welfare in the long run. In contrast, when tariffs are in place, the policy of domestic equity requirements lowers welfare in the short run but raises welfare in the long run.
