Dear AIB colleagues: Please note our new book ODI from BRIC Countries: Firm-level Evidence. Authors: Valeria Gattai (University of Milan-Bicocca), Rajssa Mechelli (Catholic University of the Sacred Heart), Piergiovanna Natale (University of Milan-Bicocca). Palgrave 2018 https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-319-97340-1 The book investigates the rise in outward direct investment (ODI) from four emerging economies, Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC). Over the last two decades, these countries have transformed from recipients of foreign direct investment (FDI) into important international investors. The book explores the reasons behind the impressive surge in ODI from developing economies, and examines the characteristics of firms within BRIC countries by creating and testing a conceptual framework. Addressing the need for a greater understanding of aggregated ODI patterns, the book focuses on the different types of ODI being employed by firms within BRIC countries, covering details such as destinations and foreign ownership structures. Thanks, P.
