dc.description.abstract | Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has gained importance in recent years and there is an abundant literature about its determinants. However, there is no consensus about the main variables to be included in a model. Using Canadian outward FDI stocks we look for the most relevant explanatory variables using Bayesian model selection techniques. We have a sample that goes from 1995 to 2014 for a group of 20 developed and emerging host countries and 26 potential explanatory variables. Due to the heterogeneity of the host countries, we have divided them into groups according to their geographical position. We have found that the factors that determine FDI are very diverse depending on the group of countries considered. Moreover, the patterns found are in line with di erent economic theories. In the case of emerging countries, \vertical" FDI models explain the Canadian outward activity. Also, in the case of Europe, the explanatory variables di er between core and peripheral countries: market size, openness and institutional factors are the relevant factors for the periphery. Credit, colonial link, internet use and language are the relevant variables for core countries. | ca_CA |
