本文分析了日本制造业在亚洲的对外直接投资动态模式。日本电子公司在20世纪90年代将制造业务转移到国外。我们关注的是外国直接投资激增的时机:为什么在这一时期,日本电子公司增加了在亚洲的制造业外国直接投资?实证结果表明,除了生产率的提高之外,从外国直接投资中学习经验是外国直接投资浪潮的主要决定因素。企业自身过去的FDI经验、其他企业的经验(溢出效应)以及自身分销服务的存在都鼓励制造业FDI。
This paper analyzes the dynamic pattern of Japanese manufacturing foreign direct investment (FDI) in Asia. Japanese electronics firms shifted manufacturing operations abroad in the 1990s. We focus on the timing of the surge in FDI: why in this period did Japanese electronics firms increase manufacturing FDI in Asia? The empirical findings indicate that, in addition to productivity improvements, learning experiences from FDI were the primary determinants of the FDI wave. Firms' own past FDI experiences, the experiences of other firms (spillovers), and the presence of own distribution services encourage manufacturing FDI.
