Globalization has let into the emergence of the called new/digital economy which assimilates in a great degree IPRs. To that extent, in a knowledge-driven economy, the successful protection of IPR is emerging as a crucial ingredient of commercial triumph. Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) are the intangible capital forming FDI that has significantly changed the landscape of the global economy.

The current work via a quantitative analysis of IPRs laws of 79 countries and an econometric analysis provides an answer.
