摘要 This paper presents a three-stage game to model the entry behavior of amultinational
     firm in the presence of R&D spillovers. The multinational firm’s entry mode choice –
     that is, to invest to set up a new plant or merge with a local firm – is a function of the
     magnitude of spillovers, as well as the relative cost of greenfield investment, and mergers
     and acquisitions (M&A). Our model shows that if there exist relatively high R&D leakages
     and relatively small difference in cost between M&A and greenfield investment, an R&Dintensive
     foreign firm tends to choose greenfield investment rather than M&A, while if there
     exist relatively low R&D leakages, the foreign firm is more likely to choose M&A rather
     than greenfield investment. It is also shown that the size of social welfare of the host country
     depends on the degree of R&D spillovers. These results produce strong implications for
     antitrust policy for particularly developing countries.
