This book was released on 2017 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign Direct Investment is globally considered as an inevitable vehicle for the prospective development of developing countries. Governments across the globe are taking all possible efforts to pull in as much Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) as possible. Across countries it has proved significantly time and again that FDI enhances the development of the economy in many channels. This paper examines the existence of link between FDI and economic growth. Pair wise Granger Causality Analysis is used to study causality. Gross Domestic Product is proxied with Economic Growth. With two lags, our results suggest that there exists a bi directional relationship between lagged values of FDI and GDP.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using time-series and panel data from 1981 to 2005, this paper examines the Granger causality relations between GDP, exports, and FDI among the three first generation Asian newly industrializing economies (ANIEs): Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, and the four second generation Asian newly industrializing economies (ANIEs): Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand, in addition to China. We first show the difference between the first and second generation ANIEs in terms of real GDP per capita, trade structure, and inward FDI, and find some individual characters of each economy. After reviewing the current literature and testing the properties of individual time-series data, we estimate the VAR of the three variables to find various Granger causal relations for each of the seven economies. We found each country has different causality relations and does not yield general rules. We then construct the panel data of the three variables for the first generation ANIEs, the second generation ANIEs, and finally, all seven economies as a group. We then use the fixed effects and random effects approaches to estimate the panel data VAR equations for Granger causality tests. The panel data causality results reveal that there are bidirectional causality relations among all three variables for the three first generation ANIEs, but only a weak bidirectional causality between real exports and GDP for the four second generation ANIEs. However, when all seven ANIEs are grouped for panel data analysis, we found FDI has unidirectional effects on GDP directly and also indirectly through exports, exports also causes GDP, and there also exists bidirectional causality between exports and GDP for the group. Our results indicate that the panel data causality analysis has superior results over the time series causality analysis. Economic and policy implications of our analyses are then explored in the conclusions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigates the relationship between the foreign direct investment (FDI) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) over the period 1975-2013. Granger causality test & Johansen's co-integration test have been applied to explore the direction of causality & long run relationship between the variables foreign direct investment (FDI) and gross domestic product (GDP). The result shows that the FDI and the GDP are co-integrated and, hence, a long-run equilibrium relationship exists between them. It is observed that the FDI positively relate to GDP. In the Granger causality sense, FDI causes the GDP in the both long-run and short-run. There is bidirectional causality exists between FDI and GDP.

The analysis indicates that the effects of foreign direct investment are shaped by existing development patterns.
Download or read book Mechanisms of how FDI contributes to GDP in Asian Countries A study written by Antoine Niyungeko and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: "-", , language: English, abstract: The study aims to analyze mechanisms by which foreign direct investment inflows (FDI) contributes to gross domestic product (GDP) in Asian countries. FDI is used as an independent variable. GDP is used as dependent variable. Export (EXP), house hold consumption (HHC), and gross capital formation (GCF) are used as mediator variables. Many studies analyzed direct relationships between FDI and GDP without explaining how FDI contributed to GDP. Therefore, little is known about the way FDI contributes to GDP in the receiving country. The study focuses on the question: What is the indirect relationship between FDI and GDP in Asian Countries? The novelty of this paper is to provide a deep understanding on how FDI is related to GDP in Asian countries which did not get much attention in prior literature. The study used causal mediation analysis with bootstrap procedure. Annual data 2018 related to FDI, GDP, EXP, HHC, and GCF were collected from the World Bank website. The impact of foreign direct investment on economy growth got much attention in all continents. The findings of the prior researches show mixed results. Some of them concluded that FDI has positive impact on GDP. While other concluded that FDI has negative effect on GDP. For instance, Raghuveer and Muthusamy (2019) investigated the relationship between FDI and economic growth in some Asian countries including Bangladesh, China, India, Lao PDR, Mongolia, Korea Republic and Sri Lanka. They used Ordinary Least Squares, Augmented Dicky-Fuller and Granger Causality test, and found that the effect of FDI inflow on economic growth was not the same in the analyzed countries. Diouf and Hai (2017) examined the effect of the interaction between FDI, trade openness and economic growth with by focusing on Asian FDI, trade and 13 West African countries covering the period 1980-2015. They used Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study empirically examines the relationship between foreign direct investment and economic growth in South America using panel data for the period 1970-2013. The variables used in the study include real GDP, real foreign direct investment, real gross capital formation, real openness, real government consumption expenditure, index of human capital and labor force participation rate. The data were obtained from World Bank, UNCTAD and Penn Table. Ten out of twelve countries were included in the study. The study employs cointegration test and vector error correction analysis as the estimation technique. The evidence indicates that there is a positive and statistically significant long-run relationship between foreign direct investment and GDP. Additionally, the results reveal a bidirectional Granger causality between foreign direct investment and GDP in the short-run. The conclusion is that increases in FDI inflows translate to economic growth in South America. Also, in the short-run, there is a two-way causation between foreign direct investment and economic growth. The study recommends that incentives should continuously be offered by the countries in South America to attract FDI. Additionally, the region should strengthen its legal framework regulating foreign investment as this will create a conducive investment environment to attract FDI.
Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment in South Asia written by Pravakar Sahoo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s, the governments of South Asian countries acted as ‘facilitators’ to attract FDI. As a result, the inflow of FDI increased. However, to become an attractive FDI destination as China, Singapore, or Brazil, South Asia has to improve the local conditions of doing business. This book, based on research that blends theory, empirical evidence, and policy, asks and attempts to answer a few core questions relevant to FDI policy in South Asian countries: Which major reforms have succeeded? What are the factors that influence FDI inflows? What has been the impact of FDI on macroeconomic performance? Which policy priorities/reforms needed to boost FDI are pending? These questions and answers should interest policy makers, academics, and all those interested in FDI in the South Asian region and in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan.

This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international flow of long-term private capital has increased dramatically in the 1990s. In fact, many policymakers now consider private foreign capital to be an essential resource for the acceleration of economic growth. This volume focuses attention on the microeconomic determinants and effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the East Asian region, allowing researchers to explore the overall structure of FDI, to offer case studies of individual countries, and to consider their insights, both general and particular, within the context of current economic theory.
Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment Trade and Economic Growth written by Shahid Ahmed and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the opportunities and challenges in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and trade, particularly service trade, for developing and emerging economies in a globalised world. Using comprehensive case studies from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and other South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries, it explores various channels through which trade and FDI affect the process of economic growth and development. In particular, it determines growth trajectories impelled by service trade (such as telecommunications, transport, finance and distribution), where developing countries are playing an increasingly significant role. It also discusses value chains and production networks in the backdrop of the financial crisis of 2008. Combining theoretical and empirical tools, rigorous methodology and latest data, this work will serve as an important resource for formulation of international trade and economic policies in developing countries. It will be of special interest to students, researchers and policy makers dealing with international trade and FDI, and those in economics, commerce, business & management and political science.

Download or read book How Does Foreign Direct Investment Affect Economic Growth written by Mr.Eduardo Borensztein and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1994-09-01 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We test the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on economic growth in a cross-country regression framework, utilizing data on FDI flows from industrial countries to 69 developing countries over the last two decades. Our results suggest that FDI is an important vehicle for the transfer of technology, contributing relatively more to growth than domestic investment. However, the higher productivity of FDI holds only when the host country has a minimum threshold stock of human capital. In addition, FDI has the effect of increasing total investment in the economy more than one for one, which suggests the predominance of complementarity effects with domestic firms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful book analyses the impact of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in China as well as making valuable contributions to the theory of FDI more broadly. the authors provide empirical analysis of key factors including the location-specific determinants of FDI; the impact of FDI on domestic investment, income distribution, consumption and tourism; the relationship between FDI inflows and income inequality; causality between FDI, domestic investment and economic growth; and causality between FDI and tourism. the study concludes that FDI plays a crucial and positive role in the economic development of China. Rather than crowding out domestic investment, FDI is found to stimulate economic growth by complementing it. China's Economic Miracle will be warmly welcomed by potential investors who are interested in investing in China. It will be highly useful for academics and postgraduate students with an interest in FDI or the Chinese economy. With strong policy-oriented analyses and discussions on implications the book will also prove invaluable to policy-makers in various government and private sectors who have trade-links with China.
