The document investigates the externalities of foreign direct investment (FDI) from multinational corporations (MNCs) to local firms, focusing on the existence of positive and negative linkages. It critiques the common use of domestic sourcing coefficients as indicators of linkage potential, proposing a new measure based on inputs bought domestically per worker. The study finds that while MNCs in Brazil, Chile, and Venezuela exhibit higher linkage potential than local firms, this is not the case in Mexico. The paper highlights the complexity of measuring FDI externalities and suggests that while MNCs may generate positive vertical externalities to upstream industries, they often do not provide horizontal benefits to local firms in the same sector.
