Note: Institutional Distance and The Multinational Enterprise
Abstract
We draw from the recently developed construct of institutional distance to propose a framework that explains foreign direct investment by the multinational enterprise. We decompose the institutional distance between the host and home countries into distances on the regulative, normative, and cognitive dimensions of institutions, and match these with firm-level attributes to produce propositions regarding host country selection and foreign market entry strategies.

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.
