Synopsis

A clear, data‑driven look at how Spain attracted and used foreign investment, and what it means for readers today.

This edition examines Spain’s experience with foreign direct investment, from historical patterns to the impact of European Union membership. It analyzes how location, ownership, and government actions shaped inward and outward FDI, and what that means for future growth and policy choices.

The book combines historical context with industry and country‑level data to explain why Spain’s FDI profile evolved, where assets were created, and how Spanish firms increased their own ownership of foreign operations. It highlights the role of R&D, infrastructure, and human capital in shaping investment decisions.

  • Understand how Spain’s FDI has shifted over decades and what that signals for future investment.
  • See which factors attract inward FDI and which drive outward investment from Spain.
  • Learn how R&D, education, and policy choices influence the creation of assets and competitiveness.
  • Explore how internalization and ownership patterns affect how Spanish firms compete abroad.

Ideal for readers of economic policy, investment strategy, and history who want a grounded view of Spain’s role in the global investment landscape.
