Keywords: | Enterprise development; FDI; Foreign direct investment; Headquarter service; International outsourcing | Issue Date: | 2010 | Journal Volume: | 9 | Journal Issue: | 2 | Start page/Pages: | 147-157 | Source: | International Journal of Management and Enterprise Development | Abstract: | In Antràs and Helpman's (2004) model, the most productive firms refer foreign direct investment (FDI) to international outsourcing in their lobalisation strategy. This paper adds Griliches's production function to Antràs and Helpman's (2004) model in order to determine how an endogenalized headquarter services reshape firms' global organisational structures. We argue that while an intensive headquarter services help reduce incomplete contract distortion, the most productive firms with a sufficiently high headquarter service intensity may prefer international outsourcing to FDI.
