Kamaci, Ahmet, Ekrem Gul et Mustafa Torusdag. « FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS, TRADE OPENNESS AND CO2 EMISSIONS RELATIONSHIP : THE CASE OF 1995-2019 EU COUNTRIES ». Revista de Investigaciones Universidad del Quindío 33, no 2 (1 octobre 2021) : 56–73. http://dx.doi.org/10.33975/riuq.vol33n2.637.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Foreign direct investments (FDI), which are very important in the economic development of countries, prefer regions with free trade. Since the share of international trade in the world economy is constantly increasing, trade openness and foreign direct investments have become more important for countries. However, the increase in trade and FDI entries can have negative effects on the environment. Although many different variables are included in the literature as determinants of carbon emission, foreign direct investments are mostly taken as an explanatory variable with the effect of the economic globalization process.
The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between FDI, trade openness and CO2 emission for the 1995-2019 period in 24 EU countries. The relationship between variables was estimated by applying panel AMG estimator and Emirmahmutoglu and Kose causality tests to series with cross-sectional dependency. Empirical results for the overall panel show that there is unidirectional causality from carbon emission to trade openness and FDI. There is a directional causality from FDI to trade openness for the general panel has been determined.
When analyzed on a country basis, there is unidirectional causality from carbon emission to trade openness for Bulgaria, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Portugal and Slovenia. Likewise, for Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland, there is unidirectional causality from carbon emission to FDI. In addition, when analyzed on a country basis, there is a one-way causality relationship from foreign direct investments to trade openness for Bulgaria, Italia, Latvia, Poland, Portugal and Slovenia. For Bulgaria, Finland and Germany, there is a one-way causality from trade openness to foreign direct investment. The importance of this study derives from the emphasis on the need for environmentally protective FDIs to reduce carbon emissions.

Ramaswamy, M. P. « The Scope and Limitations of Legal Protection of Chinese Foreign Investments in Lusophone Markets and the Role of Macau Society ». European Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies 4, no 2 (31 mai 2019) : 95. http://dx.doi.org/10.26417/ejms-2019.v4i2-543.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The paper examines the significance of legal protection of Chinese Foreign Investments in Lusophone markets with a specific reference to Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs) with Cape Verde and Portugal and assesses how Macau SAR as a Lusophone society could play a positive role in facilitation of foreign investments. With the keen Chinese interest on Lusophone markets and its official designation of Macau as a facilitator, most studies have been focused on broader economic relations with them as a group and the present paper investigates the scope of legal protection in certain specific bilateral investment relations. The paper comparatively examines the scope of legal protection of Chinese investments in two sets of Lusophone markets namely those which have no BITs with China and those which have succesfully concluded the BITs (particularly Cape Verde and Portugal). Based on the analysis, key limitations and some potential barriers to bilateral investment flows are highlighted. The final part of the paper scrutinizes how Macau SAR could contribute to enhance investment flows between China and Lusophone markets, especially in the light of its legal system with a Portuguese influence. The paper concludes with a discussion on the need and viability of a regional investment protection and facilitation agreement under the auspices of the Forum Macau to address the identified challenges and promote the utitlity of related legal and other allied services Macau society could offer.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Development is directly associated with financial development, according to experts, the most efficient way to improve economy is to attract foreign investments. The foreign investment is crucial for a country’s development and growth. Financial instruments are the tools to govern and organize the economic activities of a country especially when it comes to foreign investments. Pakistan was the fastest growing economy of Asia five years prior. According to indicators Pakistan stock exchange was ranked at number 1 in Asia according to economic surveys and financial indicators. The economic performance of Pakistan is incredible. Pakistan was listed the best stock exchange in 2017. Similarly, despite being member of the European Union, Portugal was one of those countries which adopted industrialization very late. After adopting new economic trends and financial instruments, Portugal’s growth was rapid. Hence, the said two countries were the perfect pair to analyze the inclusion and role of financial instruments for attracting investors of growth, economy and international market. Current article was only one of its kind as it was the only study to specifically analyze the two countries on such specific areas. the analysis was done on the basis of available data provided by the governments of both countries to analyze the performance of both economies and the measures taken by both countries to attract the investors. The study gives a brief data of financial instruments being used by both countries and their contribution in attracting the investors.

U.Porto Journal of Engineering 8, no 1 (16 février 2022) : 51–58. http://dx.doi.org/10.24840/2183-6493_008.001_0006.
Texte intégralRésumé :
This study investigated the possible causes behind the significant growth of the number of Iranians in Portugal. By considering the published reports, it was found that a major part of the Iranians are students or working in academic fields. A question that arises is why the number of Iranian students at higher educational levels or later academic activities is increasing in Portugal. To investigate this, a survey was disseminated between the Iranians resident in Portugal. The results showed that beside the available scholarships, the immigration policies are one of the main reasons in choosing Portugal. Investments in the educational system in Portugal and incentives for receiving foreign students are additional reasons that have increased the number of Iranians immigrating to Portugal. It was also found that the advanced levels of facilities, living expenses, etc. are other important factors that influence the number of foreign students, especially the Iranians in Portugal.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Using a newly-developed data set for Portugal, we analyze the industry-level effects of infrastructure investment. Focusing on the divide between traded and non-traded industries, we find that infrastructure investments have a non-traded bias, as these shift the industry mix towards private and public services. We also find that the industries that benefit the most in relative terms are all non-traded: construction, trade, and real estate, among the private services, and education and health, among the public services. Similarly, emerging trading sectors, such as hospitality and professional services, stand to gain. The positive impacts on traded industries are too small to make a difference. These results highlight that infrastructure-based strategies are not neutral in terms of the industry mix. Moreover, with most of the benefits accruing to non-traded industries, such a development model that is heavily based on domestic demand may be unsustainable in light of Portugal’s current foreign account position.

Energies 16, no 3 (24 janvier 2023) : 1258. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/en16031258.
Texte intégralRésumé :
This paper investigates the relationship between geothermal energy consumption, economic growth, and foreign direct investments in countries where geothermal energy production is possible. Panel Fourier Granger causality and panel Fourier Toda–Yamamoto causality tests (2020–2021) were applied, which can take into account smooth transitional structural breaks with trigonometric functions using quarterly data for the period 2016 Q1–2020 Q3. Data were obtained from the International Energy Agency (IEA), Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), and the OECD official website. According to the results obtained based on panels, there is one-way causality from economic growth to geothermal energy and one-way causality from geothermal energy consumption to foreign direct investments. The results obtained based on individual countries indicate that one-way causality from foreign direct investment to geothermal energy consumption was found for Mexico and Portugal, and one-way causality from geothermal energy consumption to economic growth was found for Italy and Mexico. On the other hand, causality from economic growth to geothermal energy consumption was observed for Germany, Japan, and USA. No significant results were found for Turkey and New Zealand, and it is understood that the macroeconomic structures of these countries are not affected by geothermal energy. The difference in the results reveals that the application recommendations on this subject should also be different.

U.Porto Journal of Engineering 7, no 1 (19 février 2021) : 63–75. http://dx.doi.org/10.24840/2183-6493_007.001_0008.
Texte intégralRésumé :
In the last fifteen years, the number of Brazilian students in Portugal has shown an increase of more than 600%. This trend was firstly driven by Portuguese economic recovery, which included investments in university education and incentives for receiving foreign students, through the international student statute, established in 2014. In the same year, Portugal started to accept the Brazilian national exams (ENEM) for the university admission, increasing the educational migratory flux once a directly access was stablished. Moreover, other secondary reasons led to this increase, such as the opportunity to study and live in a safer country and the possibility of obtaining a prestigious foreign degree. Currently, Brazilian students represent more than 33% of the foreign students in Portugal. However, the Brazilian students are highly concentrated in the top 3 Portuguese universities, Coimbra, Lisbon and Porto. In the specific case of the University of Porto, 73% of the foreign students are of Brazilian origin, with the Faculty of Engineering (FEUP) representing the largest contingent. This sharp growth in a specific group of foreign students on the engineering courses has created several important educational challenges, as the Brazilian students often exhibit higher failure rates in exams and curricular units as well as increased dropout rates when compared with Portuguese students. This is due to several factors, such as differences on the educational methodology, the quality of the high-school education, cultural differences, difficulty of adaptation and other socioeconomics aspects. The present work evaluates the causes behind the limited academic success of Brazilian students and introduces the measures and methodologies applied to the Brazilian students on the Faculty of Engineering of University of Porto, and on the Integrated Master’s in Mechanical Engineering (MIEM) in particular, in the pursuit of maintaining educational equality and ensuring success for all enrolled students, independently of their origin.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Economic growth is a prerequisite for economic development. However, there is no “recipe” for countries to create an environment of prosperity and to achieve high rates of economic growth. Many researchers have examined the drivers of economic growth and find that economic growth depends on many economic and institutional variables. In this context, the main objective of this paper is to examine the role of good governance on economic growth in piicgs countries (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, and Spain). The database was collected from many sources and the empirical analysis is based on a 2SLS (two-stage least squares) technique. In our empirical results, we find that trade openness, gross capital formation, inflation, political stability, rule of law, debt rule, budget balanced rule, and the combination between debt rule/budget balanced rule with political stability and combination between debt rule/budget balanced rule with rule of law are significant drivers of economic growth in piicgs countries while foreign direct investments, government effectiveness, voice and accountability, regulatory quality, fiscal rule index and expenditure rule are insignificant. However, the results may be different if we use other sample groups and/or different periods.

Texte intégralRésumé :
PurposeThis study aims to explain the role of health on economic growth for OECD countries in the context of sustainable development. Accordingly, the study investigates the relationship between health and economic growth in OECD countries.Design/methodology/approachThis study employed cluster analysis and econometric methods. By cluster analysis, 12 OECD countries (France, Germany, Finland, Slovenia, Belgium, Portugal, Estonia, Czech Republic, Hungary, South Korea, Poland and Slovakia) were classified into two clusters as high and low health status through health indicators. For panel threshold analysis, the data included growth rates, life expectancy at birth, export rates, population data, fixed capital investments, inflation and foreign direct investment for the period of 1999–2016.FindingsThe study determined two main clusters as countries with high health status (level) and low health status (level), but there was no threshold effect in clusters. It was concluded that an increase in the life expectancy at birth of countries with higher health status had no significant impact on economic growth. However, the increase in the life expectancy at birth of countries with lower health status influenced economic growth positively.Research limitations/implicationsThis study used data that including period of 1999–2016 for OECD countries. In addition, the study used cluster analysis to determine health status of countries, and then panel threshold analysis was preferred to explain significant relations.Originality/valueThis study showed that the role of health on economic growth can change toward country groups as higher and lower health status. It was proved that higher life expectancy can influence economic growth positively in countries with worse or low health status. In this context, developing countries, which try to achieve sustainable development, should improve their health status to achieve economic and social development at the same time.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is projected high-standard and inclusive free trade agreement which is being conversed between the United States (US) and European Union (EU). Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership is a chain of trade negotiations operating between EU and US. The TTIP is mainly about decreasing the regulatory obstacles to trade to open up a way for bigger businesses such as environmental legislation, food safety, sovereign powers of the individual nations and also banking regulations. The US and EU are two of the most integrated countries when it comes to economy globally. It is as a result of their trade in services, investments and the high commercial presence in each other's financial prudence. These two regions support each other when it comes to the economy, and that's why they are good trading partners in products and services. The EU and U.S trade and investment partnership which is sometimes referred to as transatlantic economy has a significant global relationship and creates a mutually beneficial understanding between the two states (Hoekman and Kostecki, 2009). The TTIP is one of the largest trade and investment partnership in the world and also the most significant because of its absolute size. It has many for example the European Union has 28 member states which include: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Belgium, Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, Denmark, Finland. Greece, Ireland, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Lithuania, Romania, Spain, Latvia, Sweden, Portugal and United Kingdom are also part of the partnership. The initial negotiations on TTIP which was to become the first largest bilateral free trade and investment partnership agreement were earlier supported by a paramount and independent study of the Center for Economic Policy Research (CEPR). The study by CEPR was called Reduction of the Transatlantic Barriers to Trade and investment. The negotiations were mainly to provide independent advice to the two negotiators based on the additional research. Despite, TTIP being one of the largest trade and investment partnership, it has created both negative and positive impacts on the two states. There are benefits t being enjoyed by the member states such as job creation and home growth. The EU depends on the US exports; they can get investments from the US and also import the goods and services they require (Khanna, Palepu, and Sinha, 2005). Other positive impacts of the TTIP includes; upholding and promoting human rights, governing in a transparent manner that can hold to account individuals in authority and also has markets that can be open to free and reasonable competition and is well-regulated market areas. TTIP also protects the people and the planet through their international rules. For example, the rules look at everyone's health, their condition at workplaces, the endangered species around them and the entire environment. There are also challenges that have come out from TTIP in the field of politics and economics, poor labor standards, workers' rights and security of their workplaces, democracy, and state authority. Foreign shareholder protection, public health and the environment as a whole, health care, consumer safety and food security, climate change and environment protection, banking regulation and privacy and many others. Some competitors challenge the TTIP on slowness in services than in goods leading to difficulty in opening markets in service areas.

A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and EconomicsAttracting foreign direct investments (FDI) is an important objective as it can stimulate the economic development of societies. German companies are among the largest investors in Portugal and contribute significantly to the country’s value creation. However, Portugal’s attractiveness as an investment location has been decreasing in recent years as new competitors have emerged in the global economy. This report analyzes FDI trends and determinants as well as Portugal’s relative strengths and weaknesses, identifies potential investment opportunities for German investors and makes practical suggestions to improve the country’s current investment promotion activities, focusing in particular on the automotive supplier industry.

Castro, Francisco B. « Foreign direct investment in the European periphery : the competitiveness of Portugal ». Thesis, University of Leeds, 2000. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/2612/.
Texte intégralRésumé :
This thesis analyses the evolution and characteristics of Portugal’s inward and outward foreign direct investment (FDI) in recent years and how they reflect changes in the country’s competitiveness. Inward FDI was investigated using regression analysis and a postal questionnaire. For outward FDI, semi-structured interviews were conducted at locally owned firms with productive capacity abroad. The investment development path (IDP) was the framework used to integrate the results obtained with the analysis of national competitiveness. The thesis also suggests a novel functional relationship for the IDP in order to reconcile the empirical tests with the underlying theory. Inward FDI flows into Portugal have declined sharply in recent years, which was shown to be incommensurate with Portugal’s size and level of development. The questionnaire survey suggested that efficiency seeking investment was especially affected. This points to the geopolitical changes that have occurred in Europe as a major reason for Portugal’s lower attractiveness as a location for FDI. Bureaucracy and a shortage of skilled workers were other important obstacles to foreign investment. Both correspond to institutional failures: the failure to promote an efficient legal environment, and the failure to create advanced assets that compensate for rising production costs as locational determinants of FDI. Outward FDI was found to be more in line with Portugal’s level of development. It is growing fast but requires consolidation. Investment is concentrated in few locations, and cultural proximity (particularly language) plays a major role. I Iowever, more than exploiting existing ownership advantages, the firms surveyed were internationalising in order to build new ownership advantages. To reach an efficient size, which is not possible at home when the market is small, or to consolidate the relationship with important clients in oligopsonistic industries were the dominant motivations for internationalisation amongst the firms surveyed.

Mestrado em FinançasEste estudo tem como objetivo, avaliar e perceber qual a extensão do impacto dos impostos no investimento direto estrangeiro (IDE) em Portugal, desde 1996 até 2013. Outras variáveis consideradas relevantes pela literatura existente, nomeadamente de natureza económica e legal, foram também testadas para perceber qual o seu efeito no IDE. Utilizando dois conjuntos de dados, sendo eu o primeiro contém apenas informação sobre o valor total de IDE, sem discriminar os países de origem desses fluxos financeiros. O segundo conjunto de dados, contém informação sobre os fluxos de IDE, informação essa, que está desagregada por ano e país de origem. Foram corridas duas regressões OLS, para ambos os conjuntos de dados. A primeira, que testa os efeitos das variáveis fiscais, ficou provado que a taxa de imposto nominal e os encargos com a Segurança Social, estão negativamente correlacionados com o IDE. Na segunda regressão, que testa o efeito das variáveis económicas e legais, verifica-se que o investimento público tem correlação positiva com o IDE. Os resultados das regressões são iguais para ambos os conjuntos de dados.
The objective of this study is to understand and evaluate the extent to which taxes impact foreign direct investment (FDI) flows in Portugal, from 1996 to 2013. Other variables that previous literature considered important, were also tested for economic and legal effects. This work has a cross section data and a panel data, the first uses the total amounts of FDI flows, disregarding the country of origin. The second, contains data that discriminates those flows by country of origin. Two regressions were tested to both data sets, one testing for fiscal effects and other for economic and legal effects. The regression for fiscal effects, show that nominal tax rates and social security as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) are negatively correlated with FDI. The regression looking for economic and legal effects, shows that Public investment as a percentage of GDP has a positive correlation with FDI. The results hold for both data sets.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Doutoramento em EconomiaThis thesis addresses the impacts of public policies on outward foreign direct investment, seeking to contribute to a better understanding of the interplay between pro-internationalisation policies and firm behaviour. Home country measures associated with these policies are explored in terms of use and awareness, as determinants of foreign direct investment, as drivers of policy objectives, in terms of perceived importance and impact in different scenarios of internationalisation. Using a comprehensive database of 441 Portuguese firms, being those that had participated at least in one of the 11 types of public support between 1994 and 2009. The empirical papers presented here reveal a moderating effect of firm capabilities and internationalisation conditions on policy objectives. In fact, firms’ resources and capabilities frame the awareness and use of home country support measures, the existence of public policy determinants of foreign direct investment, the decision to carry out more aggressive modes of entry and the choice of more demanding environments, the impact of policy objectives, and the perceived importance of incentives. In practical terms, the findings of this thesis points that firms’ resources and capabilities are negatively associated with the use of public support, contrasting with awareness, which is found to increase with firms’ resources and capabilities. This insight sheds light on a potential problem of incentives allocation. Our results support the established theorizing about the co-evolution of government and firms' policies, home country measures being found as determinants of foreign direct investment. It is also shown that prointernationalization policies reinforce the firms’ resources and capabilities, which seems to have a positive impact on international growth. An evaluation of public policy, from the foreign direct investor's lens, supports the argument that firms involved in more demanding projects tend to attribute more importance to public supports. Behind the specific and concrete contributions identified in each of the empirical papers, as a whole this thesis makes methodological contributions by introducing the evaluation of impacts of public policies to the field of international business through the firm perspective; these contributions are achieved by taking the pro-internationalisation policies of a small open economy to better understand the impacts of public policies, and by shedding light on co-evolution between resource and institutional-based views.
O presente trabalho propõe-se contribuir para a avaliação de políticas públicas com impacto nos investimentos diretos realizados no estrangeiro. Desta forma,esta tese permitirá uma melhor compreensão da ação recíproca entre politicas pro-internacionalização e o comportamento das empresas em presença das mesmas. Um conjunto de medidas implementadas pelo país de origem são exploradas para obter um melhor entendimento relativamente ao seu uso e conhecimento pelas empresas. Estas medidas também são analisadas como determinantes do investimento direto realizado no estrangeiro, como fortificantes de recursos e capacidades das empresas, em termos de importância percebida, e como apoio para os objetivos de política pública. Utilizando uma base de dados com 441 empresas Portuguesas que receberam apoios públicos entre 1994 e 2009 são apresentados quatro artigos empíricos que revelam um efeito considerável das características das empresas e das condições de internacionalização sobre os efeitos das políticas. De facto, as capacidades e os recursos das empresas são fundamentais para o conhecimento e uso dos apoios, para a existência de investimento direto realizado no estrangeiro, para absorver e canalizar os efeitos dos apoios e para a decisão de explorar mercados externos com modos mais agressivos de internacionalização. Para além das contribuições identificadas, em termos genéricos esta tese contribui também com aspetos metodológicos relevantes. Nomeadamente, usando uma perspetiva da empresa, é introduzida a avaliação de políticas com impacto no investimento direto estrangeiro. Estes impactos são analisados para melhor compreender a ação reciproca entre politicas e comportamentos da empresa tomando como pano de fundo uma pequena economia.

A performance empresarial tem sido apontada por vários autores como um importante tópico de pesquisa no ramo dos Negócios Internacionais (International Business), principalmente no que diz respeito às empresas multinacionais. As empresas, em geral, coordenam as suas actividades por objectivos e competem para alcançar vantagem competitiva através do desempenho. Esta dissertação investiga se as empresas multinacionais estrangeiras (FO) e as domésticas (DO) diferem em desempenho comparativo. Especificamente, este estudo pretende determinar se há diferenças de performance significativas entre as multinacionais estrangeiras e as suas congéneres domésticas, e se essas diferenças variam consoante as medidas de performance. O enquadramento que subjaz a este estudo baseia-se em teorias de organização industrial (IO) e de negócio internacional (IB), e, na sua aplicação empírica, analisa uma amostra recente (dados para o ano de 2006) que inclui as maiores empresas portuguesas retiradas da base de dados SABI (Sistema de Análise de Balanços Ibéricos/Coface MOPE). Este estudo foi realizado utilizando modelos econométricos estimados por método de mínimos quadrados (OLS) com desvios padrão robustos e por regressão de quantis. Os resultados são inequívocos: as empresas FO têm um impacto positivo e significativo na performance empresarial em ambos os tipos de medidas de desempenho usadas (lucro e produtividade). Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que há uma diferença significativa ao nível do desempenho entre as empresas FO e DO na indústria transformadora em Portugal. Este estudo contribui também para o debate sobre medidas de política pública relevantes, nomeadamente aquelas relacionadas com a promoção de investimento directo estrangeiro (IDE), com externalidades, e com os efeitos do IDE em empresas domésticas.
Firm Performance has been pointed by different authors as an important research matter in International Business, notably in multinational corporations (MNCs). Organisations in general coordinate their activities by objectives and compete to seek competitive advantage via performance. This dissertation investigates if foreign owned (FO) and domestic owned (DO) firms differ in comparative performance. Specifically, this study seeks to determine if there are significant performance gaps between foreign MNCs and their domestic counterparts, and if those differences/gaps vary with different performance measures. This study draws on an underlying theoretical framework based on industrial organisation (IO) and on international business (IB) theories, which is tested by examining a large scale recent sample (for the year 2006) including the Portuguese top largest firms extracted from the SABI database (Sistema de Análise de Balanços Ibéricos/Coface MOPE). This study was done using econometric models estimated by ordinary least squares (OLS) with robust standard errors and by quantile regressions. The results are unequivocal: FO firms have a positive and significant impact in firm performance in both types of performance measures used (profitability and productivity). The findings of this study suggest that there is a significant performance difference between FO and DO firms in the manufacturing industry in Portugal. This study also contributes to the debate about relevant policy measures, notably related to inward investment promotion, performance externalities and effects of inward investments in local economies.

Os resultados são inequívocos: as empresas FO têm um impacto positivo e significativo na performance empresarial em ambos os tipos de medidas de desempenho usadas (lucro e produtividade). Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que há uma diferença significativa ao nível do desempenho entre as empresas FO e DO na indústria transformadora em Portugal. Este estudo contribui também para o debate sobre medidas de política pública relevantes, nomeadamente aquelas relacionadas com a promoção de investimento directo estrangeiro (IDE), com externalidades, e com os efeitos do IDE em empresas domésticas.
Firm Performance has been pointed by different authors as an important research matter in International Business, notably in multinational corporations (MNCs). Organisations in general coordinate their activities by objectives and compete to seek competitive advantage via performance. This dissertation investigates if foreign owned (FO) and domestic owned (DO) firms differ in comparative performance. Specifically, this study seeks to determine if there are significant performance gaps between foreign MNCs and their domestic counterparts, and if those differences/gaps vary with different performance measures. This study draws on an underlying theoretical framework based on industrial organisation (IO) and on international business (IB) theories, which is tested by examining a large scale recent sample (for the year 2006) including the Portuguese top largest firms extracted from the SABI database (Sistema de Análise de Balanços Ibéricos/Coface MOPE). This study was done using econometric models estimated by ordinary least squares (OLS) with robust standard errors and by quantile regressions. The results are unequivocal: FO firms have a positive and significant impact in firm performance in both types of performance measures used (profitability and productivity). The findings of this study suggest that there is a significant performance difference between FO and DO firms in the manufacturing industry in Portugal. This study also contributes to the debate about relevant policy measures, notably related to inward investment promotion, performance externalities and effects of inward investments in local economies.

The relevance of foreign direct investment (FDI) (UNCTAD, 2007) is recognised by a vast body of literature. However, until recently most studies and policy-making initiatives were focused on the mere magnitude of FDI inflows (i.e. the quantity), neglecting the quality of these investments. Recent literature on subsidiaries roles and evolution is shedding light on the asymmetric quality of multinationals (MNEs) operations, hence helping to understand their differentiated impact on host economies. This dissertation contributes to this literature by investigating empirically the quality of foreign subsidiaries activities located in Ireland and Portugal. Using data from a purposely designed questionnaire survey, the following questions will be analysed. First, which characteristics of multinational subsidiaries are conducive to innovation? This study will consider the impact of age, education and R&D intensities, among other characteristics, on innovation. This question will be analysed using a probit model. Second, do foreign subsidiaries based in Ireland and Portugal differ in a systematic way with regard to these characteristics and with regard to the motivations that led to their establishment? This question will be studied using nonparametric methods. The empirical results (first application) corroborate the hypotheses that age, education and R&D intensities of the subsidiary impact positively on innovation. The results are consistent with previous studies that emphasise the time dependent aspect of multinational subsidiaries evolution (Young, Hood and Peters, 1994; Birkinshaw and Hood, 1997, 1998) and those that highlight the importance of human capital (Bartel and Lichtenberg, 1987; Narula and Marin, 2003) and R&D activities (Cohen and Levinthal, 1989, 1990) for technology absorption and creation. It was also found (the second empirical application) that the asset-seeking motivation played a more important role in attracting investors to Ireland than to Portugal and that subsidiaries based in Ireland tend to display greater education and R&D intensities than those based in Portugal.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The recent expansion of Portuguese exports can not only promote post crisis recovery but also accelerate economic growth if the theoretical predictions on the relationship between exports and growth are correct. The export-led growth hypothesis advocates that export expansion is key in promoting long run performance. However, controversies remain on the causal relationship between the variables. We investigate this nexus for Portugal over the period 1970-2012 by estimating a bivariate VAR model with output and exports and applying cointegration, Granger causality and impulse response analysis. The results show a long-run equilibrium relationship between exports and output supporting the export-led-growth hypothesis. We also investigated the growth impact of exports of manufactured and non-manufactured products. The findings point to the existence of a positive impact of manufactured exports on output and a “limiting” effect of non-manufactured exports supporting in this way the view that what a country exports matters for growth.

Texte intégralRésumé :
With the collapse of communism, some former communist States of Eastern Europe managed to muddle through their way to a market economy and entered the European Union. This brought about the acceleration of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) among the European economies and accelerated the globalization process. Although there is plenty of research on FDI and trade among countries, the aim of this chapter is to analyze how trade between Portugal and the Czech Republic have evolved over form 2000 until 2015. The chapter seeks to complement previous studies on FDI and trade as Portugal and the Czech Republic are part of the European Union, but have had different historical, cultural, and economic paths. The main conclusion of the chapter is that trade between both countries has grown significantly. The main reason affecting trade between both countries is the economic unrest Portugal has been through since 2008.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This chapter explores the tenets and the practice of a transnational initiative to promote local entrepreneurial growth: the Building Global Innovators (BGI) model, a startup accelerator based in Lisbon (Portugal) and in Cambridge (Massachusetts, USA). We examine the pathways through which BGI's process and global network of experts helped two successful Portuguese technology startups grow and scale very quickly – Movvo and Veniam. We combine literatures from strategic management, marketing and economic geography to explore BGI's transnational acceleration model, which taps into global “pipelines” and distant entrepreneurial ecosystems, namely as a way to access the expertise, market opportunities and venture capital that is often unavailable in emergent and policy-sheltered local clusters. We discuss the relevance of such a transnational acceleration model for high-tech startups in peripheral economies.
