FOREIGN OWNERSHIP AND PRODUCTIVITY IN ASEAN MANUFACTURING: THE MODERATING ROLE OF ABSORPTIVE CAPACITY

The purpose of this paper is to explore whether foreign-owned ASEAN
manufacturing firms experience higher productivity than their domestic
counterparts. It also examines how the firm’s absorptive capacity
moderates this aforementioned relationship. By applying a random-
effect regression on a panel dataset consisting of 688 firms from
Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam covering the 2014-2018 period, this
study provides partial support for the existence of productivity
differentials and found that absorptive capacity negatively moderates
this relationship. However, due to a lack of internal validity, the latter
finding must be interpreted with caution as it may be misleading.
