FDI Decision-Making Process on Additional Investments; a case study of Singapore Multinationals in Europe
Summary
Decisions on overseas investments are very strategic and financially important because they are likely to have a big impact on a company's competitive advantage. The basic idea of promotion agencies is to influence that decision on FDI in order to attract and retain investments. It is this latter point that forms the focus of this research. This research attempts to shed light on how Singapore multinationals make FDI decisions on additional investments in Europe. Moreover, since embeddeness and expansion are important to the NFIA Singapore it is in this research to find out how decisions on additional investments differ from decisions on initial investments.
