This empirical research investigates state based factors affecting the inward FDI employment among fifty states of the United States, uses annual data for the period of time from 1997 to 2007 and identifies several state-specific determinants of FDI employment. The results indicate that the major factors exerting positive impact on inward US FDI employment are: real wages, infrastructure, unionization level, educational attainment, FDI stock and manufacturing density. In addition, the results show that gross state product growth rate, real per capita taxes and share of scientists and engineers have negative impact on FDI employment. Our findings indicate the importance of selected variables in evaluating the effects of FDI flow on state employment.

This paper investigates factors affecting the inward foreign direct investment (FDI) flows among fifty states of the United States. The analysis uses annual data for the period 1997 until 2007. The study identifies several state-specific determinants of FDI and investigates the changes in their importance during the period. Our results show that among the major determinants; real per capita income, real per capita expenditure on education, FDI related employment, real research and development expenditure, and capital expenditure have a significant positive impact on FDI inflows. There is also evidence that the share of scientists and engineers in the workforce exerts a small positive impact on inward FDI flows. In addition, per capita state taxes, unit labor cost, manufacturing density, unionization, and unemployment rate exert a negative impact on FDI inflows.
