Abstract
This paper investigates the empirical determinants of the initial FDI entry decisions by Japanese firms to enter into the U.S and Taiwanese markets. The study is based on a full-sample survey of firms listed on Japanese stock exchanges and is for the period 1976–2000. We find that a number of macro/financial as well as micro (company-specific) variables are highly significant in explaining the observed entry pattern.
