Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper provides a systematic analysis of bilateral, source and host factors driving portfolio equity investment across countries, using newly-released data on international equity holdings at the end of 2001. It develops a model that links bilateral equity holdings to bilateral trade in goods and services and finds that the data strongly support such a correlation. Larger bilateral positions are also associated with proxies for informational proximity. It further documents that the scale of aggregate foreign equity asset and liability holdings is larger for richer countries and countries with more developed stock markets.

Book excerpt: This paper examines the bilateral, source and host factors driving portfolio equity investment across a set of countries using International Monetary Fund's new dataset on international equity holdings at the end of 1997, 2001 and 2002.The paper finds that the bilateral equity investment is strongly correlated with the underlying patterns of trade in goods and services. The information asymmetries and cultural-institutional proximity are important for bilateral equity investment. The size of domestic stock market is the key correlate of aggregate foreign portfolio equity asset and liability holdings. The scale of aggregate foreign equity asset holdings is larger for countries having high income per capita.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We show that recent methodological advances in econometric theory raise questions about the results obtained by some influential contributions on the determinants of international investment patterns, since the seminal paper by Lane and Milesi Ferretti (2008) (LMF). In most such contributions, estimated equations are affected by heteroscedasticity, which may be shown to lead to inconsistent estimates in log-linearized models. Thus, the empirical findings of these works may need to be reassessed. By taking the results in LMF as a benchmark, we use a different methodology, which produces consistent estimates even under heteroscedasticity, and report substantial differences with respect to the traditional methods. Moreover, we extend the dataset over time (over years 2001-2009) to estimate a panel gravity model, which allows to properly account for unobserved heterogeneity through country-pair fixed effects, and further improves on the cross-section analysis, by also reconciling empirical evidence with economic theory. Our panel estimates suggest the relevance of a diversification motive in driving international equity purchases.

Download or read book Shaping Globalization written by Bertelsmann Stiftung and published by Verlag Bertelsmann Stiftung. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of new economic powers in Asia and Latin America has changed the size and the direction of cross-border investment flows. Emerging economies like China, Brazil and India have become major destinations of foreign direct investment within the past decade, and they are also taking on the role of investor themselves. The unprecedented shifts in global investment flows have revived the debate over the effects of foreign investment on growth, employment and income distribution. In this book, leading experts analyse the most important trends, from the increasingly active role emerging economies play as investors in Africa to the rising suspicion in the U.S. and Europe of Chinese takeovers. Global challenges like climate change and the ageing of societies will act as new drivers of foreign investment, reshaping the patterns of globalization once again.
