Abstract
This paper examines the sectoral patterns and determinants of inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in Greek manufacturing. The panel-econometric analysis across manufacturing sectors reveals that, in contrast with low labour costs, a sector's size, labour productivity, scale economies and R&D intensity do significantly affect the attraction of FDI across manufacturing industries. Additionally, the empirical findings imply that policy measures which strengthen the natural resources-based advantages, promote industrial clusters and export processing zones, as well as upgrade the export-oriented logistics and outsourcing activities, would be expected to raise the inflow of manufacturing FDI in the country.
