The project analyzes the historical role of multinational companies and the characteristics of the various cycles of foreign direct investment in Argentina from a business history perspective. In order to provide new evidence on the relationship between foreign investment, firms and economic development in Argentina, the Foreign Companies in Argentina Database FCAD–PICT 2010/0501 has been set up. It contains information on all foreign companies, collected and systemized for the following selected years: 1913, 1923, 1930, 1937-8, 1944, 1959-60, 1970-1. You are welcome to visit the FCAD Database and contact us with any doubts, comments or suggestions.
