Brookings Trade Forum 2007: Foreign Direct Investment by Susan M. Collins

"This tenth issue of the Brookings Trade Forum examines a variety of dimensions of FDI. On balance, have developing countries benefited from FDI inflows? To what extent has FDI played an important role in China's impressive economic performance? How do tax and productivity differences between source and host countries affect bilateral FDI flows? How have profits been shared between multinational corporations and host country governments in resource-rich economies? Why do U.S. investors appear to earn substantially higher returns on their investment abroad than foreigners earn on their investments in the United States?" - Brookings
