FDI and the relevance of spatial linkages: do third-country effects matter for Dutch FDI?
[journal article]
Abstract The aim of this paper is to test for the relevance of spatial linkages for Dutch (outbound) foreign direct investment (FDI). We estimate a spatial lag model for Dutch FDI to 18 host countries. After controlling for fixed effects, we find for our sample period 1984–2004 that third-country effects mat... view more
