“…By looking at Russia, Buccllato and Santangelo (2009, p. 15) provided evidence that FDI were mainly driven by vertical specialization and agglomeration. The study of Chidlow, Salciuviene and Young (2009) showed that foreign investors in Poland were attracted by agglomeration, knowledge and market factors in the strongest urban and business service agglomeration and the richest region of the country. However, investors interested in low input costs, availability of labour and natural resources were attracted by other regions (ibid., p. 129).…”

Due to the liberalization and transformation of emerging markets economies, the attractiveness of these countries for foreign direct investors has been rising in the last decades. This paper explores foreign direct investment location choice factors of German and Austrian companies in Brazilian regions. We perform the quantitative analysis, based on the Multinomial Nested Logit Model and supplement its findings by the qualitative analysis, based on the semi-structured experts' interview. The analyses shown that investor-nation specific agglomeration, industry specialization, workforce qualification and physical infrastructure were important FDI location choice factors for German and Austrian companies in Brazil. Suggestions for future research of the FDI location choice factors are discussed.

“…Although there are some studies regarding the determinants of FDI in Poland (e.g., Cieślik, 2013;Chidlow et al, 2009;Gorynia et al, 2007), to the best of our knowledge there is none that focuses on the case of Portuguese FDI in the country. Furthermore, most of the existing studies focus on the determinants from a macro perspective and not from a micro perspective.…”

“…Blonigen (2005) provides a useful review of this literature, noting the tendency to use various intensities (R & D, advertising, skilled labour) in such empirical models. Chidlow et al (2009) in their study of inward FDI in Poland define a series of efficiency variables including labour endowments and a several knowledge seeking variables, such as educated labour. Driffield et al (2009) link technological influences to productivity and endowments of skilled labour.…”

This study provides an empirical analysis of US inward foreign direct investment (FDI) with particular reference to the role of skilled labour. The theoretical foundations of the analysis are rooted in OLI theory and, in particular, its locational aspects. However, the empirical techniques employed are e more commonly associated with factor proportions theory. Thus, the contribution of the paper is partly methodological in applying such techniques to the determinants of inward FDI. The paper also produces evidence that US inward FDI is focused on skill intensive economic activities, using multiple categories of skilled labour. It also finds that strategic asset seeking behaviour focused on skilled labour overlaps with efficiency seeking behaviour linked to productivity change, export activity and market seeking behaviour.
