Book The Macroeconomic Determinants of United States Direct Investment in Australia

Download or read book The Macroeconomic Determinants of United States Direct Investment in Australia written by Mark Hill and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a significant increase in inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in Australia since the liberalisation of the economy in the mid 1980s. The United States (US) continues to be the single most important source of FDI. Despite the increase in FDI, studies examining the determinants of US FDI in Australia are sparse. Previous studies suffer from several problems, such as: changes in the macroeconomic climate, an absence of a robust analytical framework, the use of inappropriate proxy variables, and the use of only survey based data, focusing on the impacts of US direct investment, but not its determinants. Econometric results suggest that the rapid increase in US FDI in Australia is primarily due to increasingly outwardly orientated trade policy, a stable macroeconomic climate, a small but highly valued domestic market, a favorable real effective exchange rate and the previous impact of other foreign investment in the form of a quasi-public good. Policy recommendations are made which would encourage ongoing FDI in Australia.

Book Geographic Determinants of Australian Foreign Direct Investment

Download or read book Geographic Determinants of Australian Foreign Direct Investment written by Kishor Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The volume of investment that has flowed from Australia into the outside world, and its implications for economic policy, has attracted substantial policy debate among Australian policy makers, particularly in the context of regionalisation of the world economy. Using hypotheses from investment demand model and new trade theory we investigate if market size, its growth rate, openess, regional economic integration, cultural similarity and availability of knowledge capital have any impact in attracting Australian investment offshore. Our results suggest that countries which are open, have a large domestic market and stable macro-economic environment tend to attract most Australian FDI. Regional integration, and the similarity in language and culture do not have any effect in attracting FDI from Australia. This result has a significant policy inplications not only for Australia, but also for other countries who are increasingly engaged in forming trading blocs like Australia-US free trade agreements (AUSFTA)."--ABSTRACT.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2010, the Latin American and Caribbean region showed great resilience to the international financial crisis and became the world region with the fastest-growing flows of both inward and outward foreign direct investment (FDI). The upswing in FDI in the region has occurred in a context in which developing countries in general have taken on a greater share in both inward and outward FDI flows.

The third describes the presence China is beginning to build up as an investor in the region. Lastly, the fourth and fifth sections analyze the main foreign investments and business strategies in the telecommunications and software sectors, respectively.

Book The Selected Essays of John H Dunning

Download or read book The Selected Essays of John H Dunning written by John H. Dunning and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes should be required reading for anyone with an interest in international business and globalisation. They add immeasurably to our understanding. Mira Wilkins, Business History Dunning is one of the most prominent researchers and thinkers in the IB field. In these books, he has set out his most celebrated writings and has provided us relatively easy access to widely scattered references in the literature. Rajat Kathuria, Global Business Review The modern academic study of the multinational enterprise started with John Dunning s pioneering study of American Investment in British Manufacturing Industry in 1958. In the early 1970s he began to publish an influential and authoritative stream of papers integrating theoretical and empirical analysis of the multinational enterprise. This fascinating volume charts the evolution of John Dunning s thinking, highlighting his attempts to develop a richer, more dynamic and historical framework for the analysis of the multinational enterprise. It makes compelling reading, and offers unique insights into the intellectual development of his well-known eclectic paradigm of international production. Mark Casson, University of Reading, UK This volume contains a selection of John Dunning s best known and highly acclaimed writings on the theory of international business activity. Spanning more than three decades, the 16 contributions trace the evolution of his thoughts and ideas as an economist, from his first article on the determinants of international production, published in 1973, to his most recent essay on relational assets, networks and global business activity, completed in 2002. Theories and Paradigms of International Business Activity gives particular prominence to the author s much renowned eclectic paradigm, which he first promulgated at a Nobel Symposium on the international allocation of economic activity in 1976. Since then, the author has written over 60 articles, pamphlets and chapters in books which have extended, refined and updated his theorizing on the interface between trade, FDI and MNE activity, in the light of the changing characteristics of the world economy and advances in international business scholarship. This, the first of two volumes of John Dunning s work, is essential reading for all students, scholars and researchers with a special interest in the reasons behind the explosive growth in post-war FDI and the globalization of business activity.

Book Challenges to Globalization

Download or read book Challenges to Globalization written by Robert E. Baldwin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People passionately disagree about the nature of the globalization process. The failure of both the 1999 and 2003 World Trade Organization's (WTO) ministerial conferences in Seattle and Cancun, respectively, have highlighted the tensions among official, international organizations like the WTO, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, nongovernmental and private sector organizations, and some developing country governments. These tensions are commonly attributed to longstanding disagreements over such issues as labor rights, environmental standards, and tariff-cutting rules. In addition, developing countries are increasingly resentful of the burdens of adjustment placed on them that they argue are not matched by commensurate commitments from developed countries. Challenges to Globalization evaluates the arguments of pro-globalists and anti-globalists regarding issues such as globalization's relationship to democracy, its impact on the environment and on labor markets including the brain drain, sweat shop labor, wage levels, and changes in production processes, and the associated expansion of trade and its effects on prices. Baldwin, Winters, and the contributors to this volume look at multinational firms, foreign investment, and mergers and acquisitions and present surprising findings that often run counter to the claim that multinational firms primarily seek countries with low wage labor. The book closes with papers on financial opening and on the relationship between international economic policies and national economic growth rates.
