“…This paradigm posits that MNEs invest abroad to take three kinds of advantages: Ownership (O), Location (L) and internalisation (I) advantages (Dunning, 2001(Dunning, , 2009Dunning & Lundan, 2008). Ownership advantages referred to access to natural resources and highly skilled human capital or sophisticated technology, the capacity and ability to innovate and differentiate products (Aleksandruk & Forte, 2016). Location advantages refer to differences in endowments between the countries or location attractiveness such as lower labour cost, transportation cost, market risk and potential demand (Miniesy & Elish, 2017;Rasciute & Downward, 2017).…”

“…Location advantages refer to differences in endowments between the countries or location attractiveness such as lower labour cost, transportation cost, market risk and potential demand (Miniesy & Elish, 2017;Rasciute & Downward, 2017). The internalisation factor explains that firms must engage and exploit the foreign opportunities of FDI in term of more return to investment rather than granting licences or making agreements with foreign firms (Aleksandruk & Forte, 2016;Miniesy & Elish, 2017). In line with the eclectic paradigm, seeking a foreign market, cost minimisation (efficiency gains), and resource acquirement are the key motives of Chinese MNEs engage in investment ventures.…”

Asia is a heterogeneous region including countries with distinct features in quite a few facets. This study is designed to unravel the motivations of Chinese FDI in 30 Asian countries (For list of countries see Appendix 1.) during 2003-2016. For estimation, we utilised the Random effect (RE), Fixed effect (FE) and System-GMM (SGMM) methodologies. We transpired that both market and natural resource (mineral richness) seeking motives of Chinese FDI in the whole sample analysis. With respect to income group, we confirmed the market seeking FDI in both high and middleincome countries whereas, mineral richness is priority for Chinese FDI in middle-income group. Thus, Chinese firms targeted middle income developing economies to acquire non-fuel natural resources. Analogously, on the regional basis, the results show that in all regression models, GDP is positive and significant predictor, characterising market seeking FDI by Chinese firms in West, East and South East Asia. In resource seeking motive, among the two types of natural resources, mineral richness affect Chinese FDI positively in East & South East Asia. In a nutshell, seeking market is the common motive for Chinese FDI in the entire sample, whereas the resource seeking motive varies across the income groups and regions.

Research background: Globalization has so far brought the possibility of international trade as well as the possibility of establishing companies abroad. Countries see a number of benefits in attracting foreign enterprises. However, the question arises about how countries may affect the number of enterprises established by domestic companies abroad? Purpose of the article: The aim of this article is to find out whether corporate income tax rates have an impact on establishment of foreign controlled companies by Slovak companies abroad. Secondly, the aim of the work is to uncover whether trading across borders (which represents globalization), may influence the decision-making of such companies. To verify this, two groups of countries were created: one with a lower and the other with a higher average corporate income tax rates compared to the average rates in the Slovakia. The hypothesis is that paying taxes plays negative role in the number of foreign controlled enterprises by Slovak companies. Methods: To estimate the hypothesis, the panel regression analysis is applied. Findings & Value added: The results of the work may help in policy making decisions aimed at monitoring of foreign controlled companies from the Slovak republic. The findings reveal that taxes might not be the best, and at the same time the results reveal different area that may affect the establishment of such companies – namely trading across borders.

“…The location served as the central point for several researches, where it is generally highlighted as a motive for FDI. The significance of the location in FDI has been substantially supplemented by a number of studies [19][20][21]. Despite the immense work on the phenomena, the determination of the core location drivers for the FDI remained unknown.…”
