The top 200 multinational companies control about a third of the world’s output. After discussing their importance, this chapter builds models to explain their existence and then examines sectoral and geographical trends, focusing on the European scene. There follows a sectoral analysis of multinationals and a discussion of attitudes towards inward foreign investment. The chapter concludes by examining multinational pricing policies.
