Chapter Focus
This chapter seeks to identify the economic
rationale that underlies Foreign Direct

The Form of FDI: Acquisitions versus
Greed-Fields
The majority of
investments is in the
form of mergers &
acquisitions:
Represents about 77%
of all flows in developed
countries.
Represent about 33% of
all flows in developing
countries.
Fewer target firms
to acquire.
Why the preference for
mergers & acquisitions?
Quicker to execute.
Foreign firms have
valuable strategic
assets.
Believe they can
increase the efficiency
of the acquired firm.

Horizontal FDI and Factor
Considerations
Horizontal FDI: when a firm invests in the same industry as
in the home country
Transportation Costs: High/low value to weight impacts
costs.
If the product is low in value-to-weight ration like soft drinks
Or cement , then transportation costs add to the costs.
Here , FDI is a better option.
If the product has a high value-to-weight ration then exporting
Is a better option unless there are other factors to consider.

Horizontal FDI and Factor
Considerations
Market Imperfections (Internalization Theory): Factors
that inhibit markets from working perfectly. This
includes (1) governments impeding the free flow of
products between nations(Toyota), and (2)
impediments to the sale of know-how.(RCA, Matsushita &
Sony)
Strategic Behavior: Concentrated industries (oligopoly) tend
to mimic each other’s moves. Where there is
multipoint competition, competing firms match each
other’s moves to keep the competitor in check.
Example: Orascom Vs Telenor

Horizontal FDI and Factor
Considerations
The Product Life Cycle: Suggests that foreign market
demand leads to FDI, probably not true and
therefore is not a good predictor of FDI.
Location-Specific Advantages: Advantages that arise
from using resource endowments or assets tied
to a particular location (Dunning - eclectic paradigm)
Example: Silicon Valley.

Vertical FDI
Two forms:
Backward: Providing inputs (raw materials, parts)
for a firm’s domestic production processes.
Forward: An industry abroad sells the outputs of
the firm’s domestic production processes.

Why Do Companies Engage in FDI?
Strategic Behavior: Can raise entry barriers or shut out
new competitors, or circumvent barriers established by
companies already doing business in the foreign country.
Alcoa and Alcan went to T&T to gain control over
bauxite.
Market Imperfections: Need to overcome lack of know-
how or the firm must invest in specialized assets whose
value depends on inputs provided by a foreign supplier.

A Decision Framework
Figure 6.6
Yes
How high are
transportation costs
and tariffs?
Is know-how amenable
to licensing?
Is tight control over
foreign operation
required?
Can know-how be protected
by licensing contract?
Then license
