Outward FDI and Home Country Exports: Theoretical Approaches and Empirical Evidence

Rosa Forte and Vera Silva

The International Trade Journal, 2017, vol. 31, issue 3, 245-271

Abstract: This article reviews the growing body of literature that empirically analyzes the impact of outward FDI on home country exports. Focusing the analysis on the various types of studies and identifying the methods used and the countries analyzed, this study allows us to identify gaps in the literature and make suggestions for future research. Future research efforts should focus on more disaggregated data, particularly at the firm and product levels, and adopt a multilateral approach, which is essential for a complete analysis of the relationship between FDI and exports.
