The objective of this presentation is to analyse the factors that determine the intensity of FDI in the British Aerospace Industry.
FDI was analysed as the Offshoring activity and three theories of the Theory of the Firm; Resources Based View, Resources Dependence View and Transaction Cost Economics were utilized as main frameworks to explain the company activity.
