Abstract

In light of the important and expanding role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in today's global economy, a vast literature has emerged attempting to uncover the salient factors determining the spatial and temporal pattern of FDI activity. This chapter investigates one potential factor: bilateral tax treaties. The chapter is organized as follows: Section A describes the empirical methodology. Section B discusses the data. Section C presents the results, while Section D concludes.
