Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Vietnam's economy moves further along the path of development, this book presents urgent lessons for policymakers from the country's first decade of experience of FDI. A mere decade after the start of its reforms towards a market-oriented economy, a World Bank report named Vietnam the second largest recipient of foreign direct investment (FDI). Drawing on a wealth of hitherto unpublished data and qualitative analysis, this work critically examines the overall impact of FDI on Vietnams economy, as well as the performance of individual projects. A major finding is that government policy and intervention have been important in channelling foreign investment flows towards national and regional development goals. This book is also a significant addition to the debates on FDI-induced effects such as technology transfer and employment creation in developing countries. It will be of great interest to all those researching or involved in policymaking in transitional economies in particular.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,3, Berlin School of Economics (Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Recht (HWR) Berlin), course: International Corporate Finance, language: English, abstract: Foreign direct investment (FDI) is found almost everywhere in the world today and closely connected to worldwide globalization. Why do enterprises which are suc-cessfully operating in their home market decide on making investments in unknown and more insecure markets? Why do investment destinations have an interest in admitting foreign investors into the economy? Considering that FDI has grown in importance in the global economy in the last decades, obviously there has to be significant advantages for both sides. The World Investment Report (WIR) of UNCTAD reports in their recent publication (2008) high records in FDI flows in the world (UNCTAD 2008a). While developed countries still attract the largest volume of FDI inflows, developing countries possess the highest growth rate in drawing a significant volume of investment into their economy. Transforming and emerging markets in South, East and Southeast Asia particularly showed rapid development of generated inflows and their economies are prospering. China is a famous exam-ple. In our paper, we would like to introduce a not so well-known little tiger - Vietnam - and South Korea, which is after impressive growth in the last decades due to FDI now on its way to becoming an industrialized country. First we will give a short theoretical overview of FDI. We will not analyze all global flows and development of FDI. Our focus lies in the development and framework of FDI in both above-mentioned countries and answering the question which impact did FDI have on their economic development. Therefore follows an especially economical introduction of both countries and then a deeper look into sectors of FDI. We will give a short classification of development in Vietnam and in S

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vietnam's economy has been fundamentally changed by the policy reforms implemented in the 1980s to provide an environment that is more conducive for economic growth and social stabilization. The policy reforms have had a tremendous impact on economic activities and on all aspects of social life. The economy is presently moving from a centrally planned system largely based on public ownership to a market-oriented and mixed economy. Social structures and values have changed, and legal, institutional, and administrative systems are gradually changing as well. The reform process gives rise to exciting challenges and opportunities for development. Based largely on Vietnamese sources of data and information, this book presents an analysis of the main features of economic policy reforms in Vietnam, their socioeconomic impact, and several major theoretical and practical problems Vietnam faces on its path to development.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides broader economic underpinnings for the specific issues relating to international discussions or negotiations on investment. It starts with a discussion of the effects of foreign direct investment on development through trade, one third of which takes place within corporate production systems. Then, it explores its impact on development beyond trade. By its nature, foreign direct investment brings into the recipient economy resources that are only imperfectly tradable on markets, especially technology, management know-how, skilled labor, access to international production networks, access to major markets and established brand names. The effects of foreign direct investment on development often depend on the initial conditions prevailing in the recipient countries, on the investment strategies of transnational corporations and on host government policies.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment in Vietnam written by Anh Ngoc Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vietnam has been quite successful in attracting FDI inflows since the inception of economic reform in 1986. The inflow of FDI has contributed significantly to the economic development of Vietnam. Still, the determinants of FDI inflow and its impacts on the economy of Vietnam are under-researched. In this paper we provide an overview of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Vietnam and attempt to review of the current status of economic research on the determinants of FDI and its impacts on the economy of Vietnam. Our regression analysis of the determinants of FDI spatial distribution across provinces points to the importance of market, labour and infrastructure in attracting FDI. Government policy as measured by the Provincial Competiveness Index (PCI), however, does not seem to be a significant factor at the provincial level. Foreign investors from different source countries seem to behave differently in choosing the location of investment.
Download or read book The Contribution of Foreign Direct Investment to Economic Growth in Vietnam During the Period 1990 2013 written by Quoc Anh Ho and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of foreign investment (FDI)on economic growth has been a controversial topic of debate among economic researchers. FDI is expected to bring many benefit to recipient countries, however there are also many potential disadvantages from a development point of view (Thirlwall, 2011). This paper will estimate the empirical impact of FDI on GDP growth of Vietnam during the period 1990-2013 and compare the impact between two divided periods: post and after the WTO accession of Vietnam in 2007. Firstly, the result shows that for the whole period, FDI has statistically and economically contribute to the growth of GDP in Vietnam. Secondly, the estimated result provides an evidence that FDI might have crowding out effect on domestic investment. Finally, it is shown that before joining the WTO, domestic source of investment has larger impact than FDI on GDP growth. But after the WTO accession there is weak statistical evidence to support the expectation that the impact of FDI on Vietnam's economic GDP growth has increased.

Download or read book Does Foreign Direct Investment Accelerate Vietnamese Economic Growth A Simultaneous Equations Approach written by Hiep Luu and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on economic growth in Vietnam over the five-year post-crisis period of 2010-2014. In addition, it also provides a comparative analysis with the pre-crisis period to yield greater insight into how the FDI-growth nexus evolved over time and under different economic conditions. Our empirical work is based on a panel data set containing 63 provinces in Vietnam. We start our analytical section by examining the FDI-growth relationship using two simple ordinary-least-square (OLS) models, where FDI and economic growth are the dependent variables and are regressed on a number of other factors that seemingly influence FDI and growth. With an awareness of the possible endogeneity bias, we re-estimate our model using the simultaneous equation approach, employing the two-step system generalized method of moment (GMM) estimator. We complement our study by re-estimating the model on the pre-crisis sample during the period 1999-2006. Then, we re-run our regressions on the full-sample setting and take into account the possible effect of the 2007/2008 crisis by incorporating the crisis dummy variables (D2007 and D2008) to shed more light on the impact of the crisis on FDI and economic growth. Overall, we find some evidence of the simultaneous relationship: increased inward FDI promotes economic growth, while at the same time, greater growth could help the country to attract additional FDI capital. However, this bi-directional relationship only existed in the post-crisis period, and not in the pre-crisis time. During the pre-crisis period, growth does not exhibit a significant impact on FDI, while FDI is found to be an important driver of growth. In our full-sample setting, we find a robust positive significant influence of FDI on economic growth. However, economic growth, again, does not exhibit a significant positive impact on FDI. Some other factors, including domestic investment, market size, exports, level of trade openness and infrastructure development, either promote economic growth or inward investment. We also find some evidence suggesting that Vietnam should invest more in human capital to obtain a sufficient absorptive capability in order to benefit from advanced technologies and knowledge transfers that accompany inward FDI. In the end, our empirical findings suggest that the country should implement a more 'open door' policy to exploit further benefits from additional FDI inflows.
Download or read book Absorptive Capacity Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth in Vietnam written by Lan Phi Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis starts with an in-depth review of economic growth and foreign direct investment theories. These theories are used to critically evaluate policies that are used Vietnamese government to attract FDI in different regions of Vietnam. This discussion paves the way for the development of methodology and empirical work presented in the thesis. The thesis utilises panel data on 61 provinces of Vietnam. Panel data analysis allows one to take into account the impact of unobservable factors and hence yield more reliable results. The thesis mainly utilises the Generalised Method of Moments (GMM) estimation technique. This technique is considered to be most appropriate because it avoids the potential endogeneity and related complications.
Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment and Its Contributions to Economic Growth and Poverty Reduction in Vietnam 1986 2001 written by Thi Phuong Hoa Nguyen and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2004 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s, Vietnam experienced high economic growth, significant reduction in poverty and remarkable inflows of foreign direct investment. The book aims at examining impacts of foreign direct investment on economic growth and poverty reduction in Vietnam during 1986-2001 analytically and empirically. The triangulation methodology is used. Conclusions are that foreign direct investment contributed significantly to Vietnam's growth and this worked mainly through capital accumulation and intra-industry spillover. Economic growth in turn reduced poverty. Direct impact of foreign direct investment on poverty was insignificant at the national level but significant in three localities where most foreign investors located. Foreign direct investment thus helped reduce poverty in Vietnam.

This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the turn of the century, the liberalization of capital markets has caused exponential growth of foreign direct investment (FDI). However, developments in recent years have shown that countries have placed limitations on foreign investors. In addition, dynamic economic developments in the surge of financial and economic crisis and later have clearly exposed the possibility that FDI will change course and result in foreign direct divestment. This book looks at specific country experiences related to FDI as well as determinants of FDI that could be connected to the new course of divestment.
