- catalog abstract ""Employing the annual data of the Jenks-Simon series of British capital exports, the following are some major questions answered by this study about pre-1914 British foreign investment: Who were the chief recipients of British capital exports during the period 1865-1914? What was the industrial composition of the capital exported to each leading recipient? How did the industrial composition of British investment differ among the leading recipients? How did the ranking of leading recipients shift over time? How did the character of British capital exports change during periods of expansion as opposed to periods of contraction? How important was the British Empire as a sphere for British overseas investment? Did government incentives influence British foreign investment? Which British investments in overseas industry were competitive with domestic British Industry? What was the security composition of British foreign investment? Many other aspects of British capital exports are also explored."--Jacket.".
