Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Judith Cherry analyses the impact of economic and cultural globalization on efforts to promote inward foreign direct investment (IFDI) in South Korea over the past four decades. The book traces the development of Korean IFDI policy from one of restriction and control to one of encouragement and promotion. Specifically, it focuses on the challenges inherent in reforming the ‘software’ of IFDI promotion (socio-cultural issues, mindsets and perceptions) as opposed to changing its ‘hardware’ (systems, laws and regulations). Although the Korean government has made sustained efforts over the past decade to enhance Korea’s attractions as a host for inward investment, it has faced significant challenges in improving Korea’s IFDI performance. The discussion in this book of the wide range of transparent and non-transparent barriers that continue to hamper efforts to promote inward investment draws not only on the Korean debate concerning strategies for maximizing the benefits of IFDI, but also on the assessment of the Korean business and investment environment revealed in interviews conducted with European investors and officials in Seoul. Foreign Direct Investment in Post-Crisis Korea will appeal to students and scholars of international business, economics and globalization, as well as those with a more general interest in Korean society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of foreign direct investments (FDIs) - an inward FDI and an outward FDI - on employment in Korea. In particular, it focuses on whether the effect has been changed after the 2000 and if so, how it has changed.The foreign direct investment is defined as the capital flows of investment aimed at acquiring a lasting interest in operating enterprises outside of the economy of the investors. OECD (1999) explains that the lasting interest implies the existence of a long-term relationship between the direct investor and the enterprise and a significant degree of influence on the management of the enterprise. According to the United Nation, the purpose of the FDI is to exert a significant degree of influence on the management of enterprise resident in the other economy. It consists of equity capital, a joint-venture, a reinvested earning, and a loan. A FDI falls under either of the two categories, inward or outward FDI, according to the destination of capital flow. An inward FDI is the inflows of direct investment made by nonresident investors in an economy, and an outward FDI is the outflow of direct investment made by resident investors abroad. At the first glance, it may seem that the effect of inward FDI on employment in a reporting economy must be positive while outward FDI should have negative effect. However, when all is said and done, it is not that simple. There continues to be dissent with regards to the effects of both FDIs on employment.In session 2, the past researches with diverse view about the effects of FDIs are summarized. Session 3 contains data description for the following empirical analysis. After the empirical model specification and their estimation procedures are provided in session 4, session 5 reports the empirical results. Lastly, session 6 suggests conclusion and implications. The contribution of this analysis is to investigate long-run relationships between both FDIs and employment, and to test the changeability of them with time.
Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment in Korea written by Bernie Bishop and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-24 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1997, this book traces the history of foreign investment policy in South Korea from 1961 until the present. It shows how Korea adopted a highly successful interventionist strategy towards foreign direct investment channeling it into areas of the economy where it could achieve the most benefit for the country’s economic development. In recent years Korea has tried to adopt a more market driven approach. However, differences within various institutions within the public and private sector led to policy confusion and ineffectiveness in meeting policy goals. The conclusion reached is that moving from an interventionist strategy to a market orientated strategy is difficult in this policy area. The book breaks new ground because it shows that while the conventional wisdom is that a 'market economy' approach is beneficial, moving from an interventionist policy to a market-orientated one is problematic and cannot be accomplished quickly.
Download or read book Going Multinational written by Frédérique Sachwald and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the 1990s, Korean firms embarked on an impressive wave of direct investment abroad. This dramatic multinationalization was considered as yet another sign of Korea's remarkable economic performance, especially as a high proportion of the foreign ventures were located in advanced countries. But this unbalanced quest for globalization actually tested the 'Korean model' to its limits; after the 1997 crisis a new policy prepared the way for a surge of inward investment. Using empirical tests and case-studies, this collection shows that Korean groups have invested in developed countries to jump over trade barriers, but also to source advanced technology and marketing capabilities. Moreover, their ambitious strategies have been stimulated by oligopolistic rivalry among the chaebols. From a policy perspective, the book provides an original discussion of national ownership by questioning the substitutability between inward and outward foreign investment and its relationship with the evolution of the national innovation system. By shedding light on the pattern of Korea's internationalization, these essays make a valuable contribution to the theory of international production and provide important insights for the current policy debates on globalization and innovation-led growth.
Download or read book Globalisation and Korean Foreign Investment written by John A. Turner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing a previously ignored area, this text analyses two converging factors: globalisation and Korean foreign direct investment policy. It looks at the emergence of the Korean government's globalisation objectives, and at the response of the chaebol, the business groups that brought about their country's rapid industrialisation. The chapters reveal a complex story with political as well as economic dimensions. They also note the impact of the 1997 crisis, and the growing importance of inward investment. The book, therefore, covers developments in Korean economic policy from the Chun-Roh regime to the Kim Dae-Joong era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) studies have evolved as one of the mainstreams in business strategy. This book presents a comprehensive perspective on the motivations behind the studies, the effects of FDI, and how it can be utilized and extended to other areas of studies. Written with a global perspective, this book not only touches upon business strategies but also covers government policies toward promoting and attracting FDI for industrial and economic development. The author, with his vast experience in consulting and research projects for multinational companies, international organizations and governments, examines real world business practices of Eastern firms and how they relate to their Western counterparts, thus making this book a valuable and practical reference not only for students, but for practitioners, too."--
