Chapter 6 in Foreign Direct Investment:Ownership Advantages, Firm Specific Factors, Survival and Performance, 2018, pp 131-139 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: The purpose of this book was to extend and develop the literature in foreign direct investment, ownership advantages and performance of multinational companies’ subsidiaries. The research contributes to the literature by providing empirical support for several theories and previously defined and/or tested constructs. The parent and subsidiary factors measured in this study suggest the importance of internationalization and the ownership advantages of Dunning’s eclectic theory. Moreover, according to resource-based theory, the number of employees, capital and total assets constructs measured in this study suggest examining the effect of firm’s resources on performance and ownership of foreign affiliates.
