Abstract: Abstract Völgyi and Peragovics present outward FDI of six emerging Asian countries (South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam) in V4 countries, namely, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. After analysing the global trends of outward FDI of the six Asian countries, they focus on the activities of South Korean, Taiwanese, and ASEAN companies in V4 countries. Companies originating from the six Asian countries are engaged in several manufacturing and services sectors in the V4. Among them, Völgyi and Peragovics pay special attention to the automotive and electronics sectors, which are the most preferred one. In the last section of the chapter, they identify the pull factors for market- and efficiency-seeking investments in these two sectors.
