Die Internationalisierung der Schweizer Wirtschaft

Author

Abstract

In diesem Beitrag berichten wir über die Resultate einer Studie, die auf Daten für ca. 1900 Firmen basiert. Diese stammen aus einer im Jahr 2010 durchgeführten Erhebung bei einer repräsentativen Stichprobe von Unternehmen der Sektoren Industrie, Bau und Dienstleis - tungen (DL). Der Schwerpunkt der Analyse liegt auf folgenden vier Aspekten der Internationalisierung schweizerischer Unternehmen: a) Bestimmungsfaktoren und Motive für Aktivitäten an ausländischen Standorten; b) Leistungsverflechtung zwischen den Mutterfirmen und ihren ausländischen Filialen; c) Auswirkungen der Auslandpräsenz auf das Wachstum der Produktivität der Mutterfirmen, und d) Beurteilung der Frage, ob Investitionen im Ausland den Standort Schweiz – wie häufig ver - mutet – schwächen (Verlagerung) oder umgekehrt, ob sie diesen stärken (komplementäre Aktivitäten).
