Does Economic Integration Cause Foreign Direct Investment?
Open accessAbstract
The authors analyze the effect of economic integration on oligopolists' international trade and foreign direct investment activities, using a three-country, three-firm model. Increased country size leads to dispersed foreign direct investment, while improved market accessibility leads to export-platform foreign direct investment. Increased intraregional market accessibility prompts outside firms to invest in the regional bloc, reducing product prices, profits of intrabloc firms, and increasing total surplus. Integrating economies are more likely to gain from improving intraregional market accessibility than from tougher external trade policy, and may wish to offer investment incentives to encourage foreign direct investment by outside firms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
