This paper presents an empirical study of spatial origin and destination effects of European regional FDI dyads. Recent regional studies primarily focus on locational determinants, but ignore bilateral origin- and intervening factors, as well as associated spatial dependence. This paper fills this gap by using observations on interregional FDI flows within a spatially augmented Poisson interaction model. We explicitly distinguish FDI activities between three different stages of the value chain. Our results provide important insights on drivers of regional FDI activities, both from origin and destination perspectives. We moreover show that spatial dependence plays a key role in both dimensions.

本文对欧洲区域 FDI 对偶的空间起源和目的地效应进行了实证研究。最近的区域研究主要关注位置决定因素，但忽略了双边起源和干预因素，以及相关的空间依赖性。本文通过在空间增强的泊松相互作用模型中使用对区域间 FDI 流动的观察来填补这一空白。我们明确区分价值链三个不同阶段的 FDI 活动。我们的研究结果从来源地和目的地的角度为区域 FDI 活动的驱动因素提供了重要的见解。此外，我们表明空间依赖性在两个维度中都起着关键作用。
