The Impact of Domestic Productivity of Inward Investment in the UK Author info | Abstract | Publisher info | Download info | Related research | Statistics Driffield, Nigel
Additional information is available for the following
registered author(s):
One of the basic tenets of UK industrial policy, that attracting inward investment into the UK stimulates domestic productivity growth, is examined. A model of productivity growth is developed for the indigenous sector of UK manufacturing, linking domestic productivity growth to theoretical explanations of inward investment. The paper demonstrates that inward investment does stimulate productivity growth in the domestic sector of around 0.75 per cent per annum. However, this cannot be attributed to investment or output spillovers, but is a result of the productivity advantage exhibited by the foreign firms.
