Although there is growing literature evidence of linkages between global value chains (GVCs) and foreign direct investment (FDI), the results are mixed and ambiguous by geographic dimension, time period and sectoral scope. Moreover, bilateral approaches on these connections have been rarely analyzed. In this context, we investigate the effect of bilateral greenfield FDI and cross-border M&A on GVC linkages between host countries and source countries. We match three-year averages of bilateral FDI and UNCTAD-Eora GVC value-added data from 2005 to 2019 between 37 OECD sources and 176 host countries (37 OECD versus 139 non-OECD countries). In the structural gravity model, the empirical specification includes bilateral and country-period fixed effects and uses a Poisson Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood (PPML) estimator. We find that greenfield and M&A FDI promote forward and backward GVC linkage for all sectors between OECD countries, whereas greenfield FDI promotes backward GVC linkage between OECD and non-OECD countries. In addition, the results indicate that the degree of influence of GVCs by FDI flows is greater for forward GVC than backward GVC among OECD countries.

본고는 파키스탄의 외국인직접투자 정책에 영향을 미치는 관련법에 관한 고찰이다. 그동안 세계경제에서 소외되어 왔으나 글로벌 투자와 외국인 직접투자의 증가로 주목받는 파키스탄의 투자제도와 관련법규의 변천과정 등을 살펴보고 이와 관련된 주요법안인 외국인 민간투자(촉진.보호)법, 경제개혁의 보호법, 외화계좌(보호)법 등을 중점적으로 분석하였다. 본고에서는 이러한 법안들이 후속 실행되지 못하고 종종 정책의 변화가 일어나는 과정에 주목하였으며 외국인 직접투자의 주요 정책과 제도의 소개를 통해 현지 진출시 외국기업들이 숙지해야 하는 핵심사항을 법과 정책적 차원에서 고찰하였다.

이 논문은 한국이 체결한 자유무역협정(FTA)이 해외직접투자를 추진하고 있는 한국기업들의 생산성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 가를 분석하기 위해 작성되었다. 특히 기업규모에 따라 영향의 차별이 나타나는지를 보기 위해서 기업대상을 대기업과 중소기업으로 나누어서 FTA 체결을 전후로 총요소생산성의 변화가 나타나는지를 조사하였다. 조사기간은 2002년부터 2010년까지로 하고 국내 모기업과 해외 현지법인의 기업별 자료를 이용하였다. 분석결과 FTA를 체결한 나라들에 투자한 한국기업들 중 중소기업의 모회사와 해외현지법인은 FTA 발효후 생산성이 상승하는 것으로 나타났고, 대기업의 경우는 유의성을 발견하지 못하였다. 이는 자유무역협정이 대기업에 유리한 영향을 줄 것이라는 일반적인 견해와 다른 것이다. 중소기업의 생산성이 상승한 배경에는 FTA 발효이후 모회사는 자본집약적 성향이 더 강해졌고, 해외현지법인의 경우는 한국으로의 수출이 증가한 것 등이 작용하고 있음을 발견하였다.

This study analysed determinants of Foreign Direct Investment to ASEAN+ 3 member nations using panel data for which cross-sectional data are combined with time series data. The data for the analysis included the amount of FDI, GDP, and indexes of economic independence. This study collected data from six nations(Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) whose data were easily available, China and Japan from 2003 to 2007 and analysed them. The results are summarized as follows: Using the pooled OLS method, we found Model 2 had the highest explanatory power whose adjusted R-squared was 89.4%, which accounted for about 89% of foreign investment. Using the fixed effect model, Model 2 had the highest explanatory power whose adjusted R-squared was 96.8%, which accounted for about 97% of foreign investment. Using the probability effect model, Model 5 had the highest explanatory power, but in respect to its statistical significance, only GDP was 1% significant and the rest variables had no significance.

The study aims to investigate the pattern of relationships such as symmetric or asymmetric, between exchange rate and foreign direct investment in Bangladesh by applying Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) and nonlinear ARDL. In this study, we employed quarterly data for the period of 1974Q1 to 2016Q4. Data were collected and aggregated from various sources namely, Bangladesh Economic Review published by Ministry of Finance and statistical yearbook published by Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics and an annual report published by Bangladesh Bank. The relationship between exchange rate and FDI inflows attract immense interest in the recent periods, especially for developing countries' perspective. The results of the study ascertain the long run relationship between FDI, exchange rate, monetary policy, and fiscal policy. Considering the asymmetric assumption, the findings from NARDL confirm the existence of a long-run asymmetric relationship in the empirical equation. In the long run, it is observed that positive change that is the appreciation of exchange rate against USD decrease FDI inflows and negative shocks results in grater inflows of FDI, however, the positive shocks produce higher intensity that negative shocks in Exchange rate. For directional causality, the coefficients of error correction term confirm long-run causality, in particular, bidirectional causality unveiled between FDI and exchange rate.

This paper investigates the effect of institutional quality on FDI inflows by using FDI outflows from Asian countries from 2009 to 2017. We used the FDI data from five major Asian economies, which are South Korea, China, Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong. The gravity model was used to examine the effect of institutional quality on FDI flows. The regression model considers several independent variables, and we select the most appropriate variables by using the Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) estimator. We have shown that foreign direct investment from Asian countries depends on the size of home and the partner countries, geographical distance, trade interaction between two countries, economic freedom, labor supply, tariff rate, and capacity of the government. The results of different estimation techniques emphasize that multinational enterprises prefer to invest in those countries which have a higher income, which shows the evidence for Lucas's paradox. The results also show that economic freedom and control of corruption have a positive impact on FDI inwards. The regression results show that better institutional quality in host countries encourages more FDIs from Asian economies. It suggests that the state should control corruption and create a free economic environment to attract FDIs.

Using panel data for 29 developed countries, this paper studies the relationship between financial flow and trade markets on Dutch diseases for the period 2000-2010 and applying a fixed effects model. In particular, the study shows that an increase in inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI) leads to an appreciation of the real exchange rate. The result also suggests that an inflow of FDI accompanied by exports or government expenditure from tax revenue leads to real exchange rate appreciation. This paper also argued that stock market with FDI does not cause an appreciation of the real exchange rate.

외국인 직접투자가 개발도상국가들의 경제성장에 매우 중요하다고 많은 정책입안자들과 학자들이 주장하고 있음에도 불구하고 외국인 직접투자 유입과 경제 성장 간의 긍정적인 관계에 대해서는 보편적인 합의가 이루어지지 않고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 많은 개발도상국들이 자국의 경제성장을 위하여 적극적으로 외국인 직접투자를 유치하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 1995년부터 2009년까지의 88개 개발도상국가들의 자료를 활용하여 외국인 직접투자와 경제성장 간의 관계를 실증분석 한다. 분석에 사용된 국가들은 소득수준이 높은 선진국, 석유 생산국가 그리고 가용 가능한 자료가 부족한 국가들을 제외하였다. 분석에 적용된 모형은 솔로우 모형으로 본 모형은 외국인 직접투자뿐만 아니라 실물자본, 인구증가, 인적자본을 동시에 고려하였다. 분석 결과, 외국인직접투자는 개발도상국의 경제성장에 긍정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 뿐만 아니라 실물자본, 인적자본 모두 개발도상국가들의 경제에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 개발도상국들은 외국인 직접투자를 통해 효율적으로 경제성장을 위하여 도로, 철도, 전력, 병원과 같은 사회간접자본에 대한 투자와 인적자본에 대한 투자가 필요한 것으로 보인다.

Purpose - This paper intends to conduct theoretical analysis and empirical test on the action mechanism of South Korea-China trade and South Korea's FDI to China on green total factor productivity, so as to provide a new perspective and ideas for the improvement of China's green total factor productivity and promote the high-quality development of China's economy Design/methodology - This paper uses the data of 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China from 2004 to 2017 as the research sample, adopts the GML index method of SBM Directional Distance Function to measure GTFP, and analyzes the influence of South Korea-China trade and FDI from South Korea on China's GTFP. Findings - Trade is conducive to promoting technological progress, which has a significant promotion effect on China's green total factor productivity. While FDI has a significant inhibitory effect on China's green total factor productivity, which verifies the "pollution haven" hypothesis. In addition, such influence has certain regional overall heterogeneity. Trade has a more significant promoting effect on GTFP in eastern coastal areas, while FDI has a more significant inhibitory effect on GTFP in central and western inland areas. The interaction between trade and FDI is conducive to the improvement of green total factor productivity, indicating that the benign mechanism of trade and FDI has been formed. Urbanization, industrial structure, human resource level and investment in science and technology are all conducive to the improvement of GTFP. Originality/value - Through theoretical analysis and empirical test on the action mechanism of South Korea-China trade and South Korea's FDI on green total factor productivity, this paper provides a solid theoretical foundation for the further development of China-South Korea economic and trade cooperation in the future.
