Resumen

En un ámbito tan explorado como es el de la Inversión Extranjera Directa (IED), aún existen aspectos por abordar. A pesar de la importancia del sector servicios en el tema, son escasas las investigaciones que se han centrado en explicar la relación del sector en los flujos de IED hacia América Latina. La diversidad de temas que pueden influir en esta explicación, así como las características del sector servicios, la convierten en una tarea compleja, tanto para la investigación académica como para la gestión empresarial. Siendo conscientes de este hecho, este trabajo representa un intento de reducir dicha complejidad al plantear la relación entre flujos de IED y métodos de entrada a mercados externos. El método de entrada de la IED ha jugado un papel protagónico en la internacionalización de las empresas de servicios, particularmente en el caso de las multinacionales eléctricas europeas, las cuales han sido las responsables del incremento en los flujos de inversión hacia la región.

Palabras clave:
Inversión extranjera directa
internacionalización
métodos de entrada
servicios y sector eléctrico

The entry methods FDI has played an important role in the internationalization of services companies, particularly in the case of the European electrical multinationals, which have been the responsible of the increase in the flows of Investment towards the region.
