[article]
Titre : Internationalization of R&D : industry-level analysis of United States transnational corporations'affiliates in developing and developed countries Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Adugna Lemi, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 1-34 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Entreprises multinationales Tags : Multinationales Supply chain Recherche et développement USA Economies en développement Résumé : This study examines the determinants of the internationalization of R&D by affiliates of United States transnational corporations (TNCs)in developed and developing countries. The study investigates three hypotheses related to the impacts of labour cost, spillover and networking, and existing technology in a host country. Industry-level data on United States TNCs with majority ownership of the affiliates in a host country between 1989 and 2003. The results of the study suggest that labour cost had positive impact on the internationalization of R&D only for developed host countries. Spillover and networking effects seem to influence high-tech and low-tech industries in developed countries, whereas only medium-tech industries respond to spillover and networking effects to locate R&D in developing host countries. Furthermore, affiliates’ proportion of local sales and sales back to the United States have exhibited differential impacts on R&D spending in developed and developing countries.

Titre : The international financial crisis and transnational corporation strategy Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Alan M. Rugman, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 103-116 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Multinationales Crise financière Supply chain Résumé : As is well-known to readers of this journal, foreign direct investment (FDI) is undertaken by transnational corporations (TNCs). In many ways FDI is not a financial investment decision, rather it is a micro-level, firm-driven, strategy decision. Thus FDI and TNC strategy need to be carefully distinguished from financial (portfolio) investment decisions which are country-level, macroeconomic, decisions. This distinction between FDI and portfolio investment has eluded many commentators on the international financial crisis. For example, although large banks and financial institutions are types of TNCs, their firm-level strategic FDI decisions need to be distinguished from country-level macroeconomic trade and financial imbalances. In this paper, we attempt to work through the logic of this distinction between FDI and portfolio investment to analyse the international financial crisis.
