摘要：Recent attempts at reaching an international investment agree-
ment have been met with considerable opposition and failed. An im-
portant reason for this failure is the diverging interests between the
parties involved. The present paper focuses on the interests of host
countries, with difference in market size as the source of conflict. We
analyse the welfare effects of an international investment agreement as
a function of the intensity of technological spillovers, the technology
gap between the investor and host country firms, intra-regional trade
costs, and the difference in market size.
