Book Synopsis From which Foreign Direct Investment Channels can Domestic Firms Benefit the most in Developing Countries? by : Yannick Koniezny
Download or read book From which Foreign Direct Investment Channels can Domestic Firms Benefit the most in Developing Countries? written by Yannick Koniezny and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Economics - Foreign Trade Theory, Trade Policy, grade: 1,0, University of Dusseldorf "Heinrich Heine", language: English, abstract: In the wake of globalization, the importance of Foreign Direct Investments (henceforth FDI) has strongly increased. From 1990 to 2017 the amount of FDI inflows in the world has increased sevenfold. Most FDI expenditures flow between industrialized countries. But also developing countries show a strong increase in FDI inflows. Especially China became attractive for FDIs in the past years after reducing FDI restrictions. In the year 1978, before substantial reforms, almost no FDIs were made in China. 39 years later, in 2017, approximately 9.5% of the worldwide FDIs were conducted in China. In the same period, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita of China has increased fifty-six-fold. At the same time, the export ratio of China has increased from approximately 4.5 % to 19.8 %. These developments suggest that FDI may have a positive influence on economic growth and thus on firms' growth in developing countries. Therefore, governments of developing countries try to attract their country and companies for FDI by granting tax holidays or other benefits in the hope that the domestic economy can benefit from positive FDI spillovers. Companies have various reasons to make an investment in a foreign country e.g. lower wages, new market access, better resources, etc. All those motives are linked to the superior objective of profit maximization. According to John H. Dunning’s "Eclectic paradigm", there are three conditions which must be fulfilled so that companies make an investment in a foreign country. First, the ownership advantage which means that a company must have an exclusive competitive advantage over competitors in the foreign market. Second, the location advantage which means that a company must benefit from the differences between home and host countries for example through lower wages or factor costs and third, the internalization advantage which means that a company must exploit its specific competitive advantages itself and not sell them to existing companies, e.g. in the form of licenses.

Book Synopsis Foreign Investment and Spillovers (Routledge Revivals) by : Magnus Blomstrom
Download or read book Foreign Investment and Spillovers (Routledge Revivals) written by Magnus Blomstrom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spillover effect of multinational companies has, historically, been subject to much debate. The assumption that the host country can be expected to enjoy spillovers – improvements in the balance of payments, in the influx of foreign currency and in other sectors of the economy not directly affected by the multinational – has not necessarily been corroborated in practice. First published in 1989, this book addresses this debate, and the very different conclusions that can be drawn about spillovers. Reporting on significant research on Latin America and drawing comparisons with findings elsewhere, Foreign Investment and Spillovers provides students and researchers with a truly international perspective.

Book Synopsis Trade, foreign direct investment, and international technology transfer : a survey by : Kamal Saggi
Download or read book Trade, foreign direct investment, and international technology transfer : a survey written by Kamal Saggi and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: May 2000 - How much a developing country can take advantage of technology transfer from foreign direct investment depends partly on how well educated and well trained its workforce is, how much it is willing to invest in research and development, and how much protection it offers for intellectual property rights. Saggi surveys the literature on trade and foreign direct investment - especially wholly owned subsidiaries of multinational firms and international joint ventures - as channels for technology transfer. He also discusses licensing and other arm's-length channels of technology transfer. He concludes: How trade encourages growth depends on whether knowledge spillover is national or international. Spillover is more likely to be national for developing countries than for industrial countries; Local policy often makes pure foreign direct investment infeasible, so foreign firms choose licensing or joint ventures. The jury is still out on whether licensing or joint ventures lead to more learning by local firms; Policies designed to attract foreign direct investment are proliferating. Several plant-level studies have failed to find positive spillover from foreign direct investment to firms competing directly with subsidiaries of multinationals. (However, these studies treat foreign direct investment as exogenous and assume spillover to be horizontal - when it may be vertical.) All such studies do find the subsidiaries of multinationals to be more productive than domestic firms, so foreign direct investment does result in host countries using resources more effectively; Absorptive capacity in the host country is essential for getting significant benefits from foreign direct investment. Without adequate human capital or investments in research and development, spillover fails to materialize; A country's policy on protection of intellectual property rights affects the type of industry it attracts. Firms for which such rights are crucial (such as pharmaceutical firms) are unlikely to invest directly in countries where such protections are weak, or will not invest in manufacturing and research and development activities. Policy on intellectual property rights also influences whether technology transfer comes through licensing, joint ventures, or the establishment of wholly owned subsidiaries. This paper - a product of Trade, Development Research Group - is part of a larger effort in the group to study microfoundations of international technology diffusion. The study was funded by the Bank's Research Support Budget under the research project Microfoundations of International Technology Diffusion. The author may be contacted at [email protected].
Book Synopsis Foreign Direct Investment, China and the World Economy by : P. Buckley
Download or read book Foreign Direct Investment, China and the World Economy written by P. Buckley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-11-29 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China has become such an important element of the global economy that its influence cannot be ignored in almost any field of endeavour. The phenomenal impact of FDI in China and its (largely trade-related) consequences has been well documented and now there is a significant literature on the phenomenon of outward investment from China too. This book is an in depth study of the international business relationships of China covering both inward and outward foreign direct investment, its impact and related theoretical and policy issues. This volume of highly renowned author Peter Buckley's collected papers from 2005-8 continues his interest in the theory of international business (Section I) and policies towards foreign direct investment (FDI) (Section IV) but has a major concentration on China, both as regards outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) from China (Section II) and FDI in China (Section III).
Book Synopsis Much Ado About Nothing? Do Domestic Firms Really Benefit from Foreign Direct Investment? by : Holger Görg
Download or read book Much Ado About Nothing? Do Domestic Firms Really Benefit from Foreign Direct Investment? written by Holger Görg and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments the world over offer significant inducements to attract investment, motivated by the expectation of spillover benefits to augment the primary benefits of a boost to national income from new investment. There are several possible sources of induced spillovers from foreign direct investment. This article evaluates the empirical evidence on productivity, wage, and export spillovers in developing, developed, and transition economies. Although theory can identify a range of possible spillover channels, robust empirical support for positive spillovers is at best mixed. The article explores the reasons and concludes with a review of policy aspects.
Book Synopsis Do FDI Firms Employ More Workers than Domestic Firms for Each Dollar of Assets? by : Mr.Sakai Ando
Download or read book Do FDI Firms Employ More Workers than Domestic Firms for Each Dollar of Assets? written by Mr.Sakai Ando and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2020-03-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies whether FDI firms employ more workers than domestic firms for each dollar of assets. Using the Orbis database and its ownership structure information, we show that, in most economies, domestic firms tend to employ more workers per asset than FDI firms. The result remains robust across individual industries in the case study of the United Kingdom. The analysis of the switchers (ownership changes from domestic to foreign or vice versa) suggests that ownership changes do not have an immediate impact on the employment per asset. This result suggests that different patterns of employment per asset seem to come from technological differences rather than from different ownership structures.
