Making Foreign Direct Investment Work for Sub-Saharan Africa : Local Spillovers and Competitiveness in Global Value Chains (2014, neutral): “While our focus here is on the suppliers’ output share to foreign firms and not on FDI spillovers, our findings can be related to those by Sinani and Meyer (2004), who find that a larger share of human capital leads to negative FDI spillovers (see chapter 2), although the underlying mechanisms may b”
When and where does foreign direct investment generate positive spillovers? A meta-analysis (2009, background): “Liu (2002) in China, Yudaeva et al. (2003) in Russia and Sinani and Meyer (2004) in Estonia find positive effects, while other studies find negative effects in Bulgaria, Romania (Konings, 2001) and the Czech Republic (Djankov and Hoekman, 2000).”
FDI, Linkages and the Efficiency of State-Owned Enterprises in China (2008, background): “…overcomes the aggregation bias inherent in studies based on provincial data, the paucity of microeconometric analysis in this area must be of concern to Chinese policy makers, given the importance of assessing accurately the role of FDI in transition economies (for example, Sinani and Meyer, 2004).”
Perspectives on multinational enterprises in emerging economies (2004, background): “Buckley et al. (2002) and Sinani and Meyer (2004) find that received spillovers vary across firms in different forms of ownership, which they attribute to different absorptive capacity.”
How and By How Much does Foreign Direct Investment Increase the Productivity of Domestic Firms (2008, background): “Small firms make important contributions to innovation because they are less bureaucratic and exploit innovations that might otherwise appear insignificant to large firms (Sinani and Meyer, 2004).”
When does FDI matter? The roles of local institutions and ethnic origins of FDI (2013, background): “In addition to the injection of new investment funds, FDI stimulates a host economy’s growth through the transfer of advanced technology (e.g., Sinani & Meyer, 2004) and human capital (e.g., Carkovic & Levine, 2002), creating the ‘‘first-order’’ effects.”
Technology spillovers from foreign direct investment in Vietnam: horizontal or vertical spillovers? (2011, result): “This supports the argument given by Sinani and Meyer (2004) that international trade-oriented firms are influenced by international competitors, rather than by foreign firms in the domestic market.”
Social structure and technology spillovers from foreign to domestic firms (2012, neutral): “In this vein, scholars have examined the effects on spillovers of domestic firms’ export orientation, ownership structure and size (Sinani & Meyer, 2004).”
Economic upgrading through global value chain participation: which policies increase the value-added gains? (2017, background): “Sinani and Meyer (2004) confirmed that more sectoral competition, both of foreign firms and of domestic firms, has a positive impact on the growth of sales on local firms in Estonia, but does not control for the interaction of competition with FDI.”
