Öz:
Noticing the visible hand of state capitalism in global production and value chain system, this studyexamines the outward foreign direct investment strategy of sovereign wealth funds (SWFs). Leveragingtheoretical insights from the conventional political economy and international business literature, thestudy first conceptualizes a yield institutions-based viewdmarketization to sustainable competitiveadvantagedto gain a better understanding of the main purposes and economic and institutional determinants of SWFs. Efforts have been made to deepen the institutions-based perspective of globalstrategy and introduce it into, establish its relevance to SWFs research. Second, the study presents SWFs'outward FDI patterns and acquisition deals in times of global financial market turbulence. Findingssuggest that SWFs’ outward FDI choices are primarily determined by institutional transitions, marketdevelopment and government legitimacy in the home country, thus to invest globally, earn highereconomic returns, and secure resources. These choices are firmly motivated toward advanced financialmarkets, and real estate and infrastructure sectors. Third and last, the study discusses several importantimplications for state capitalism, policymakers, and sustainable development.
