Foreign direct investment and productivity spillovers : evidence from Turkey

Aysa Ipek Erdogan

This article analyzes the horizontal productivity spillover effects of foreign ownership on Turkish firms that are among the top 500 industrial enterprises in Turkey. Using a panel of 215 firms over the period 2004-2008, we find that domestic firms benefit from productivity spillovers from foreign-owned firms. However, absorptive capacity does not matter for productivity spillover benefits. -- foreign direct investment ; productivity ; spillovers
