Abstract
This paper presents a model that helps explain incomplete outsourcing in the presence of spillovers. Outsourcing may require training of workers in the low wage economy. Such training yields spillover benefit to rival firms located in the low wage economy. The outsourcing firm must balance the marginal gain (cost saving) with the marginal cost (lowering rivals' cost).
