- Li, Shaomin & Park, Seung Ho (2006): Determinants of Locations of Foreign Direct Investment in China
This study examines the factors that affect the choice of location for foreign direct investment (FDI) in China. We identify three groups of factors that may affect the location choice by foreign firms: agglomeration economies, infrastructure, and institutional changes resulting from the economic reform. ... The findings show that agglomeration economies, in particular the clustering of foreign firms and domestic firms, exert the strongest effect on FDI location. Higher FDI concentration tends to attract more foreign firms. The clustering of domestic firms exerts a negative effect on FDI locations.

We investigate how North–South integration affects the location of foreign direct investment (FDI) between the two regions. The theoretical analysis suggests that integration affects the incentives of partner and nonpartner Northern countries to locate in the South differently and may lead to investment diversion from the Northern partner.

He C. (2002) Information costs, agglomeration economies and the location of foreign direct investment in China, Reg. ... Foreign investors suffer from adverse information asymmetry and face internal and external uncertainties in host economies. Better access to information and a variety of agglomeration economies could attenuate the disadvantages that foreign investors encounter. Statistical results strongly buttress the argument that foreign investors are inclined to favour such locations that could minimize information costs and offer a variety of agglomeration economies. Theoretical and policy implications and further research directions are discussed at the end.

This paper studies a multinational enterprise's (MNE's) location decision in a vertically related market with endogenous vertical technology transfer (VTT). ... When the opposite occurs, the MNE sometimes locates in a DC where, although it faces stronger competition, it obtains the input at better terms. Therefore, by arguing that the MNE's decision can be crucially affected by the upstream market's outcomes, an alternative explanation is provided for the commonly observed foreign direct investment (FDI) in DCs.

The question where to locate a company at regional level remains a very challenging issue because the regional attractiveness patterns for investments are very complex and dynamic. The paper gathers and analyses several studies that use quantitative methods to describe the mechanism of the regional location of foreign companies. The focus is on the nested logit models that identify the highest probability of a location for being chosen from several groups of alternatives according to a set of determinants of various types. ... Nevertheless, the most important contribution of the paper is synthesizing the regional determinants of the location of FDI and the efficiency of regional policies.

This paper investigates the effect of agglomeration on foreign direct investment (FDI) location in China. ... The results suggest that urbanization, foreign-specific agglomeration and industry diversity have positive impact on FDI location. Urbanization, foreign-specific agglomeration and industry specialization, also significantly promote industrial FDI. ... Other factors including market size, wage, education, road density, government policy and trade cost also have significant impacts on FDI location.
