Abstract: In this paper, a random coefficient simultaneous equation system is used to study Direct Foreign Investment by French firms. The problem of formulating and estimating a random coefficient system is discussed at first in a general setting and an easily implementable solution is proposed. The estimating procedures are then applied to a panel of 64 plants belonging to 17 French firms over the period 1976-82.
