- Most of the MNEs that we surveyed believe that the FTA-NAFTA have had either a positive or neutral impact on their organization.
- There is a clear gap between U.S.-owned and EU-owned subsidiaries. The former reported an excellent performance vis-à-vis their local and global competitors, whereas the latter viewed their own performance less favourably.
- U.S.-based MNEs have been able to transfer key knowledge and skilled personnel within the home NAFTA region more easily than have EU-based firms.
