| Summary: | This paper empirically examines the effects of Japanese parent financial performance with interactions on the
Japanese foreign subsidiaries financial performance. We used Japanese outward Foreign Direct Investment
(FDI) with a panel data of two ASEAN countries that received the highest Japanese FDI for the period 2003
until 2009. The purpose of this paper is to establish a relationship that is statistically significant with regard
to the performance of Japanese subsidiaries located in Malaysia and Thailand using the ORBIS database. A
multiple regression model has been applied in this research and the results reveal that some parent’s financial
ratios have influence on the subsidiaries financial performance. Moreover, the parent company’s ‘R&D per
operating value’, ‘profit margin,’ and ‘solvency ratio’ are the best indicators of the performance of the
subsidiaries in the two-host countries.
