John D. Daniels and Charles J. Quigley

Foreign Trade Review, 1980, vol. 15, issue 3, 263-288

Abstract: Although much attention has focused on direct investment behaviour, there has been little attempt to explain why some countries receive much more than others. This study analyses differences in investment outfiows from the United States of America to different OECD, Latin American, and other lesser developed countries. A few variables explain most of the differences among each group of countries. Their identification, however, depends on the group of countries being considered.
