Abstract

Foreign Direct Investment has evolved from an initial focus on the benefits of firms from advanced economies producing in multiple foreign locations, to an understanding of the different outcomes for home and host countries and the regulation of this. Interest in FDI as an indicator and stimulator of development has shifted to consider the wider impact of FDI as well as the differences between advanced and emerging economies that engage in outward FDI.
