This study employs state-level panel data to explore the relationship between inward foreign direct investment (FDI) and income inequality in the US. Using panel cointegration techniques that allow for cross-sectional heterogeneity, cross-sectional dependence and endogenous regressors, the authors find that the short-run effects of FDI on income inequality are insignificant or weakly significant and negative.
