Ongoing demographic changes have brought about a substantial shift in the size and age composition of the population, which are having a significant impact on the global economy. Despite potentially grave consequences, demographic changes usually do not take center stage in many macroeconomic policy discussions or debates. This paper illustrates how demographic variables move over time and analyzes how they influence macroeconomic variables such as economic growth, inflation, savings and investment, and fiscal balances, from an empirical perspective. Based on empirical findings-particularly regarding inflation-we discuss their implications on macroeconomic policies, including monetary policy. We also highlight the need to consider the interactions between population dynamics and macroeconomic variables in macroeconomic policy decisions.

We study the effect of the high-skilled emigration rate on the growth rate of the source countries. We incorporate the foreign direct investment and the policy variables into the panel model and also their interactions with the high-skilled emigration rate, as they are related to the network externality that may be created by the high-skilled emigrants working abroad. We apply the static fixed-effects model and compare it with the results obtained in the dynamic panel model with system generalized methods of moments estimators. We find the negative effect of the high-skilled emigration rate by itself and in its interaction with the foreign direct investment only in the dynamic model. However, we find positive coefficient for the interaction of the high-skilled emigration rate and the civil liberties index, which holds across the static and dynamic specifications. This implies that the effect of the high-skilled emigration rate on the growth rate of the source countries can be positive, and the extent is larger for countries with 'poor' civil liberties. The developing countries with low levels of foreign direct investment inflows and 'poor' civil liberties can best benefit from the high levels of skilled emigration outward. Through finding significant interactions with other variables, we confirm that the high-skilled emigration should be considered along with other related variables in measuring its impact on growth. The implications offer suggestions for the international trade and aid policies.

In the later quarter of the twentieth century, the need for foreign capital is realized among the various countries of the world. Developing countries especially developed multi-pronged strategies to attract foreign capital into the country. One such strategy is the adoption of liberalization policy. Almost all the developing countries started opening their economy, out of the compulsion, to achieve faster rate of economic growth and development. Even a communist country like China adopted liberalization policy as a strategy for accelerated economic growth during 1979. India also joined the race by 1991, when the government announced the policy of liberalization. The importance of FDI extends beyond the financial capital that flows into the country. The huge size of the market in this sector and high returns on investment are two important factors in boosting FDI inflows to power sector. 100 percent FDI is allowed under automatic route in almost all the sub sectors of power sector except the atomic energy. Major foreign investment is made in this sector during 2000 to 2009 is Mauritius with an investment of US$ 4490.96 i.e., 4.24 percent of the total FDI inflows into the country during the period. The estimation of future FDI flow shows a marginal decline in the year 2010. Then from 2011 to 2015 onwards upward trend of FDI was observed.

Recently there are sharp increase in number of studies related with facilitation of Inward-FDI or Multinational Enterprises invested in Korea region. The most of studies are mainly purposing to survey - 1)how Korea Government makes counter plan and assistance policy to make foreign capital and Inward-FDI more attractively and aggressively, 2)what is the new framework or system for Inward-FDI policy, 3)what is economic effect of Inward-FDI, 4)what are determinants or conclusive factors of FDI in Korea. Under this situation, the goal of this report is to find out the new way for Multinational Enterprises to reinvest continuously thru getting their better investment performances on several factors including Marketing Competence, Management Ability, Localization Management Skill, Business Management Strategy, and R&D Competitiveness which would be much more important determinants influencing re-investment of Multinational Enterprises in Kora. This report based on the empirical result and comprehensive analysis will eventually help policy makers to implement the appropriate strategy and support Multinational Enterprises to proceed positive circle's re-investment activity in the end.

세계 각국은 과거부터 경제성장과 성장동력의 확보를 위해 꾸준히 외국인직접투자를 유치해왔으며 이는 우리나라도 예외가 아니다. 실제로, 각종 정책적 지원을 통해 양질의 투자를 유치하고 있고, 정부차원에서도 하나의 성과로 홍보하고 있다. 기존의 연구가 대부분 국가경제적 차원에서 외국인직접투자의 성과를 분석하고 있는 것에 그치고 있는 것에 착안, 본 연구는 이러한 외국인직접투자가 기업의 경영성과와 혁신성과에 긍정적인 효과를 미칠 것으로 가정하고 PSM 방법을 통해 실증분석을 하였다. 분석결과 매칭 전에는 외국인직접투자가 경영성과와 혁신성에 모두 양(+)의 효과를 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 매칭 후에는 모두 통계적 유의성을 상실하여 외국인직접투자가 기업에 미치는 긍정적인 효과가 생각보다 부진하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 분석결과는 정부의 외국인직접투자 인센티브 효과가 기대했던 것에 비해 적으며, 추후 정책에 대한 개선이 필요한 것으로 판단할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 우리나라에 진출한 외국인투자기업의 투자지분율차이와 CEO국적별차이가 고용에 어떠한 차이를 미치는지 보기 위해서 실증분석을 하였다. 실증분석을 하기위해, 투자비중, CEO국적, 설립시기, 기업규모등을 독립변수로 사용하였다. 고용증가율(EMPG)을 종속변수로 하여 일원분산분석을 실시하고 회귀분석하였다. INVRATIO는 투자비중을 나타내는 변수로서 1-0%<투자비중<50%, 2-투자비중=50%, 3-50%<투자비중${\leq}100%$을 나타내는 변수이며 CEO국적은 1-한국, 2-공동, 3-외국인을 나타내는 변수이다. 실증분석 결과 투자비중=50%, 50%<투자비중${\leq}100%$에서 0%<투자비중<50%보다 고용을 더 낮게 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 CEO국적에 따른 고용행태를 실증 분석한 결과 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 시사점은 투자지분율형태와 CEO국적별에 따른 고용분석을 이론적 검토와 통계적 분석을 함으로써 대한(對韓) 외국인직접투자에서 고용에 미칠 수 있는 영향과 그에 대한 대처방안을 검토할 수 있다는 것이다. 또한 고용에 있어서 향후 투자지분율을 현재보다 더욱 중요하게 고려해야 할 요인이라는 점을 제공했다는 것이다.

Entrepreneurial financing, such as publicly initiated venture capital or grant schemes, serves as an important policy instrument that aims to bridge the financing gap facing young, innovative businesses, a gap that is mainly due to higher risk and growing uncertainty, and to strategically promote the creation of new ventures through the revitalization of their venture capital industries. This study examines public venture capital initiatives in Australia, Canada, and Sweden, and discovered that all three countries actively foster their venture capital industry through the formation of funds or the provision of tax incentives. It is notable that the majority of financing initiatives heavily depend on supply-side measures rather than demand-driven policies that focus on stimulating private investment in technological innovations and discoveries. This paper discusses in-depth the policy impact of public financing initiatives and their subsequent side-effects raised in the process such as overlapping in funding structure across the country, lack of monitoring and evaluation for feedback, fragmentation across the government ministries and agencies, and competition with the private sector, which may cause inefficiency as a result of public intervention. Financial constraints may arise for many reasons, partly resulting from the lack of investment readiness of young entrepreneurs. This signals a policy shift towards the creation of market-driven demand away from the traditional supply-push approach, and is a grand challenge to policymakers in entrepreneurial financing. Attention is leaning towards the efficiency and effectiveness of these public-financing initiatives in terms of their policy roles. It is worth noting that policy should focus on generating synergy so available resources can be channeled into the early, risky stage of new ventures, working as facilitator to the achievement of an intended policy goal.

With the limited resources the proper distribution of the national R&D investment is very crucial to improving the national competence. This crucial decision should be based on the priorities which are driven with the consideration about the relative importance among the scientific technology fields. Such priorities can be useful in planning the national R&D investment and in determining the direction of the national R&D investment policy. In this paper, we used the AHP in order to drive systematically and scientifically the priorities of the major science and technology areas in the national R&D investment, and also analyzed the evaluation differences among the expert groups.
