MOGROVEJO, Jesús. Factores determinantes de la inversión extranjera directa en algunos países de Latinoamérica. rlde [online]. 2005, n.5, pp.51-82. ISSN 2074-4706.

The research work pretends to expose the determinant factors that encourage foreign firms to invest and operate in the nineteen latin-american countries, solely, by the conditioning factors approach that represent the intrinsic characteristics of these countries in the attraction of investment, and not (as a function of) the internal factors of the investing firms. As such, this study tries to corroborate to what extent the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is a function of the size of the market, the commercial aperture, the country risk, labour costs of these countries and the atypical investments inputs -privatization and unexpected FDI inputs -. In this context, a brief theoretical description is done in order to give way to a descriptive analysis, which is formalized by econometric models that contemplate panel data for nineteen countries and with a timeframe comprised between 1990 and 2003.
