      abstract = {This paper examines the extent to which foreign direct  investment in the software sector in Ireland has an impact  on the reported profits in domestic firms. A model of  corporate profitability is developed to assess the  implications for the domestic sector of inward investment  flows. The paper concludes that there is a significant  positive relationship between the two and contributes to  the present debate relating to the potential dynamic gains  of inward investment and the role of MNC’s as engines of  growth.},
