چکیده
This paper investigates the spillover effect (backward, forward, and horizontal linkage) of foreign direct investment (FDI) firms on technical efficiency local firms. research extends literature by employing meta-frontier framework analysis which is superior to single stochastic because each industry has a different combination inputs (or dissimilar production technology). Using large data set (178,700 firm-year observations), this finds evidence negative impact forward linkages meta-technical inefficiency for as whole well in three economic regions, private owned firms, capital labor-intensive sectors Vietnam.

Technological Spillovers From FDI : Evidence from Tunisian Manufacturing Firms
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in developing countries is expected to foster technology transfer from foreign-owned to local firms. Using detailed panel data from Tunisian manufacturing firms, we show that technological spillovers generated by FDI, as a form of technology transfer, help firms move near the best practice frontier (production frontier) measured by the Schmidt and Sickles method....
متن کاملSpillovers from FDI and skill structures of host-country firms
This paper uses panel data across UK manufacturing from 1983 to 1992, to test whether inward flows of FDI have contributed to increasing trends in the employment of relatively higher skilled individuals. Moreover, the paper isolates the effect on domestic firms, and shows that this effect is a function of the size of the foreign productivity advantage. The results show, that even after controll...
متن کاملExport Spillovers of FDI on China’s Domestic Firms
This paper examines the horizontal and vertical export spillovers of foreign direct investment (FDI) on China’s manufacturing domestic firms by using firm-level census data over the period of 2000–03. Based on a Heckman two-step procedure combining first differencing and instrumental variable regression techniques, we find that FDI has had a positive impact on the export value of domestic firms...
متن کاملFDI Knowledge Spillovers and Innovativeness of Chinese Firms
We investigate theoretically and empirically the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the product innovation activity of Chinese firms. We extend the existing literature by examining a new type of spillover benefit, as well as new mechanisms by which knowledge spillovers occur. Theoretically, we extend the existing FDI spillover literature that mainly focuses on industry-level spillover...
متن کاملDo Productivity Spillovers from Japanese and U.s. Fdi Differ?
FDI comes from different sources, with different levels of technology, different modes of transferring it and into different industries. The spillover effects of FDI may therefore differ. The paper attempts to study empirically the spillover effects of Japanese and U.S. FDI on the total factor productivity growth of the Indian firms, both at the firm and the industry level. The results show tha...
