This project investigates the association between the level of economic activity and national realized absorptive capacity. Absorptive capacity is a dynamic process that has four dimensions: acquisition, assimilation, transformation, and exploitation of the external knowledge. From macroeconomic perspectives, national absorptive capacity can be defined as the process by which a nation internalizes external resources for its economic growth. The literature shows that many variables, including development level, drive the dynamics of national absorptive capacity. We distinguish between a nation's potential and realized absorptive capacity, then use data from the World Bank to empirically identify if there are significant differences in realized absorptive capacity among nations grouped into the four income categories defined by the World Bank. The association between the change in foreign direct investment net inflows as the percentage of gross domestic product and a country's growth of real gross domestic product is used as the indicator of the nation's realized absorptive capacity. We estimate fixed effects regressions, which show that countries are different in their national realized absorptive capacity. The regression results reject the null hypothesis that countries at higher level of development have higher national realized absorptive capacity. In fact, we find the opposite. We further find evidence that investment in infrastructure and economic inequality have positive associations with national realized absorptive capacity.
