Industrial organisation explanations
Hymer distinguished the difference between portfolio
investment and direct investment.
• He argued that the distinction between portfolio
investment and direct investment basically is a
question of who controls the enterprise in which the
investment is made.
• If the investor directly controls the foreign enterprise,
his investment is called a direct investment.
• If the investor does not control the foreign enterprise,
his investment is a portfolio investment.
