Title: Home Country Effects of Foreign Direct Investment: Evidence from Sweden

Author(s): Magnus Blomström and Ari Kokko

Publication Date: April 1994

Keyword(s): Foreign Investment, Home Country Effects, Multinational Firms and Sweden

Programme Area(s): International Trade and Regional Economics

Abstract: This paper examines two broad issues related to foreign investment by Swedish multinational corporations (MNCs): first, the effects of outward foreign direct investment on domestic investment, exports and employment, and second, the effects on the domestic economy from the increasing division of labour between the parents and foreign affiliates of Swedish MNCs. The paper summarizes and synthesizes the existing empirical evidence on these matters (much of which has hitherto only been available in Swedish) and discusses some possible long-run effects that have received little attention in the literature.
