With a firm-level data set, we study the location decision of South Korean multinationals across China’s regions. Our conditional logit estimates confirm agglomeration effects along industry and along national lines.We add an upstream and downstream (backward and forward) linkage effect. We find that the presence of upstream and downstream South Korean affiliates significantly increases the lik...

With a newly constructed dataset on foreign firms in Japan for the period 1995-2008 from firm-level surveys, this paper estimates the impact of foreign firms on industrial productivity at the regional level. A Bayesian-model averaging approach is taken to account for model uncertainty resulting from various linkages between foreign firms and domestic industries. The results show that the foreig...

This paper investigates the spillover effect (backward, forward, and horizontal linkage) of foreign direct investment (FDI) firms on technical efficiency local firms. research extends literature by employing meta-frontier framework analysis which is superior to single stochastic because each industry has a different combination inputs (or dissimilar production technology). Using large data set ...

As global warming accelerates extreme weather events such as floods, droughts and storms are likely to increase in intensity and frequency. With regard to a highly globalized world economy built on complex supply and value-added chains, this trend will challenge societies locally and globally. Regional production disruptions might induce shock waves that propagate through the global supply netw...
