dc.description.abstract The aim of this study is to examine the recent evolution of Turkish outward foreign direct investment together with Turkish firms' cross-border acquisitions across time countries and industries. The article suggests that macro-economic restructuring and institutional reforms together with strengthened competition at home and globally not only allowed but also forced Turkish firms to expand internationally. It shows that Turkish acquisitions are mostly directed towards European countries and are concentrated more in manufacturing than in the services industry. In addition most of the acquisitions involve firms operating in low-technology manufacturing and less knowledge-intensive services. These findings imply that Turkish firms might be motivated mainly towards accessing new markets and that the acquisitions do not seem to be utilized for technological upgrading and productivity improvements. en_US]
