Three things an MNE should consider when considering the move overseas:
Ownership-specific advantages (OAs) - something that firm can offer the country they want to conduct business in. For example FDI, skills, expertise or a uniqueness.
Location-specific advantages (LAs). For example natural resources, workforce, knowledge or market.
Internalisation advantages (IAs) (see next week slides) - essentially direct investment rather than indirect investment.
This is proposed by Dunning (find the source)
