Sammendrag
Based upon African countries and their level of industry development, this study

analyzes the impact of host country industry development (HCID) on the survival

of FDI. The study consists of a dataset with 1146 observations of FDI in the African

continent. Literature in institutional theory, FDI spillovers, and liability of

foreignness have been reviewed and connected towards the analysis to form a

theoretical framework. Thereafter, the hypotheses regarding the relationship

between HCID and FDI survival, as well as the moderating effects of Job Creation,

Capital Inflow, and Experience towards that underlying relationship are formulated,

presented and discussed with the applied theories. The hypotheses are tested by

applying the Cox proportional hazard regression while case studies will also be

conducted to clarify the research context as well as the quantitative findings. The

main findings from quantitative results suggest that HCID has a negative

relationship with the survival of FDI in Africa. The paper has also found out that

while Job Creation can help to weaken that negative relationship, a similar effect is

not found in Capital Inflow and Experience of the focal FDI. On the other hand,

the case study has showed that practitioners share the same thoughts with the

hypotheses which are drawn from theories in the literature review.

Keywords: FDI survival, FDI spillovers, host countries industry development, job

creation, capital inflow, FDI experience, Africa
