Book Exchange Rate Volatility and Inward Foreign Direct Investment in Greece

Download or read book Exchange Rate Volatility and Inward Foreign Direct Investment in Greece written by Nicholas Apergis and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this paper is to examine the impact of exchnage rate uncertainty on foreign direct investment (FDI) flows from European Union (EU) countries (the source countries) into Greece (the host country). Measuring exchange rate uncertainty through the ARCH methodology, the empirical results show that exchange rate uncertainty exerts a negative impact on FDI inflows from EU countries, implying the negative profit exposure of FDI investors as well as the absence of sophisticated capital markets in Greece.

Book Foreign Direct Investment  Trade and Exchange Rate Volatility

Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment Trade and Exchange Rate Volatility written by Bedassa Tadesse and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The desire of firms' to enhance their global presence, diversify their production and the interest of policymakers to augment domestic production with more efficient foreign technology has contributed to a surge in the cross border flow of capital. By taking into account market characteristics such as market maturity and export platform status of Japanese FDI hosts during the 1990s, this dissertation examines the link between FDI, trade and exchange rate volatility. More specifically, the following questions are addressed: What induces multinational firms to reach diverse destinations? Which of the host country characteristics attract investing firms most? Are trade flows among partners related to the volume of FDI flows between them? What does the geographical distribution of FDI reflect: efficiency, technological advances, or liberalization of trade and FDI policies? Given the diminishing role of the traditional FDI driving factors (such as factor abundance and cheap labor), to what extent do market maturity, export platform status and size of the host nations matter in determining the inflow of FDI?

Book Exchange Rate Flexibility  Volatility and the Patterns of Domestic and Foreign Direct Investment

Download or read book Exchange Rate Flexibility Volatility and the Patterns of Domestic and Foreign Direct Investment written by Joshua Aizenman and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the factors determining the impact of exchange rate regimes on the behavior of domestic investment and foreign direct investment (FDI). Producers may diversify internationally in order to increase the flexibility of production. We characterize the possible equilibria in a macro model that allows for the presence of a short-run Phillips curve. It is shown that a fixed exchange rate regime is more conducive to FDI relative to a flexible exchange rate, and this conclusion applies for both real and nominal shocks. If the dominant shocks are nominal (real) we will observe a negative (a positive) correlation between exchange rate volatility and the level of investment.

Book Do Exchange Rates Have Any Impact Upon UK Inward Foreign Direct Investment

Download or read book Do Exchange Rates Have Any Impact Upon UK Inward Foreign Direct Investment written by Andrew James Abbott and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This paper examines the impact of the level and volatility of the real exchange rate on UK foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows from the seven major countries of origin of the investment over the period 1975 to 2001. We use both fixed effects and dynamic generalised methods of moments (GMM) panel estimation techniques, and manufacturing data disaggregated by high and low R&D content of the sector of destination. Our results provide strong evidence that exchange rate volatility has a negative impact on FDI flows into the UK, irrespective of the sector of destination of the investment. On the other hand, the level of the real exchange rate is found to have a statistically insignificant effect on FDI after controlling for endogeneity of the regressors

Book Japanese Foreign Direct Investment and Regional Trade

Download or read book Japanese Foreign Direct Investment and Regional Trade written by Mr.Tamim Bayoumi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-08-01 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the relationship between Japanese FDI outflows, domestic and foreign fixed investment, and the exchange rate. The results indicate that aggregate FDI outflows have been driven by investment in Japan and the exchange rate, while the geographic distribution of such investment has been influenced by foreign economic conditions. We also find that FDI outflows have a temporary impact on exports but a permanent effect on imports. We find no evidence that behavior with respect to East Asia differs from that with respect to North America or Europe.
