Title: Globalisation and New Realities for MNE-Developing Host Country Interaction
Abstract: Globalisation has resulted in the increased mobility and knowledge intensity of the ownership advantages of MNEs, which they increasingly seek to utilise in conjunction with the created-asset intensive location advantages of countries. We highlight that that the relative opportunity sets (and thus bargaining positions) of both developing country host governments and MNEs varies by the stage of economic development and the motive of FDI. In general, globalisation has shifted the balance in favour of the MNE, and governments increasingly need to provide unique, non-replicable created assets in order to get foreign firms to be ''locked into'' these locations.
