Abstract
Recently, there has been a significant rise in the volume and significance of FDI flows. The foreign direct investment (FDI), which is undertaken by multinational corporations, affects not only the host economy but also the home economy in many ways. The impact of FDI on host economy has been very well explained by several researchers. But there is lack of literature that has investigated the impact of FDI on the economy of the investing country. The purpose of this paper is to revisit the empirical studies which are related with exploring the impact of outward FDI on various economic activities such as exports, domestic investment, productivity and economic growth in the investing country. In this pursuit, a through survey of empirical literature in this area, published since 1980 across different journals has been made and presented.
