Summary/Abstract: The paper addresses the issue of mobility of business knowledge. Capital is largely regarded as a mobile factor, while labour as one whose mobility is greatly limited. Business knowledge is usually divided into two groups: tacit and explicit knowledge. Interestingly enough the duality can be observed in case of its mobility as well, because explicit business knowledge is found to be a mobile factor, while the mobility of tacit knowledge is more like that one of labour. This duality has great effects on the investment strategy of transnational corporations as well.
