Comparing the growth rates of foreign liabilities in the first quarter of 2020, the wedge between advanced and emerging countries is about 3%, and it is at least twice as large for G7 countries. This wedge is paired with evidence of momentum trading by foreign investors.

Our findings show that the text differentiation measure better explains the product differentiation impact on prices and flows than the measures based on fund characteristics. Our text differentiation results indicate that younger SR funds and funds belonging to smaller families are more differentiated. In addition, differentiation allows SR funds to charge higher fees and attract more money flows.

We find that when spillover effects are measured at the aggregate level only, (positive) horizontal and backward productivity spillovers can be identified. However, when FIEs are disaggregated, those horizontal and backward spillover effects are most closely associated with majority foreign ownership and high-export profiles. Moreover, we can now identify positive forward spillovers transmitted by low-importing and low-exporting FIEs exclusively to high-technology domestic firms.
