Effect of Knowledge Spillover on the Logistics Performance

Abstract

This study aims is to investigate whether FDI inflows and innovative activities act as an knowledge spillover channel that increases the logistics performance of countries. In the analysis, the effects of these activities on the logistics performance were questioned according to the development levels of countries and six different logistics performance indicators by the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) Estimator method. The estimation results show that FDI, R&D investments and patent applications, which are considered as the knowledge spillover channels, have a statistically significant and positive effect on the logistics performance of countries. In addition, it is concluded that this effect is higher in developing countries compared to developed ones.
