Over the past decade, foreign direct investment (FDI) around the world has nearly tripled, and with this surge have come dramatic shifts in FDI flows. In Foreign Direct Investment, distinguished economists look at changes in FDI, including historical trends, specific country experiences, developments in the semiconductor industry, and variations in international mergers and acquisitions. Chapters cover such topics as theoretical accounts of FDI patterns, the growth of multinational enterprises, and the FDI experiences of Japan, the United States, and selected developing countries. This volume will interest economists, government officials, and business people concerned with FDI today.

This paper analyzed the relationship between the investment climate and foreign direct investment (FDI) using a sample of 18 Latin American countries. The main results show that obstacles related to financial infrastructure and customs clearance might reduce the probability of a country receiving FDI, while physical infras-tructure obstacles do not significantly affect the influx of FDI. The disaggregated data show that financial infrastructure is important for attracting both vertical and horizontal FDI. On average, policies in Latin America that minimize financial obs-tacles and reduce the time it takes to clear customs will increase the likelihood of attracting FDI.Keywords: developing countries; FDI; export.JEL code: F21; F23
