We examine the characteristics of U. S. multinationals that control operations in the middle east, a geographic region in which the foreign investment climate has been unfavorable. By comparing U. S. multinationals in the middle east to a random sample of U. S. multinationals absent from the region, we find that the former have significantly greater R & D intensity and sales than the latter. Dividing multinationals with a presence in the middle east between those in israel and those in other countries, we find that the former are more R & D intensive, have a greater proportion of overseas sales, but are smaller in terms of total sales. We discuss the strategic implications of these findings and highlight avenues for future research.
