Ricardo, Duarte Jorge Portela. "Oil, foreign aid and FDI flows: The missing link?" Master's thesis, NSBE - UNL, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10362/9770.
Повний текст джерелаThis paper studies the possible strategic use of foreign aid to get preferential access to oil. Furthermore, it also addresses the role of oil as a determinant factor for the allocation of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Using a panel data set of 48 oil producing countries for a period of 30 years, ranging from 1980 to 2010, it was found that, not only is oil a key factor for the determination of foreign aid and FDI, but also that there is a clear distinction between the importance conceived by donor and/or investing countries in their current and future level of oil dependence.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis investigates the determinants of Swedish foreign direct investments to 24 European countries during the period 1998 to 2008 with 2000 and 2008 as sample years. The thesis emphasizes five factors that affect the Swedish FDI flows to these countries, which are grouped into OECD countries and CEE countries (Central and Eastern European Countries). The explanatory variables studied are economic growth, property rights, labor cost and two dummy variables with one targeting whether the country is culturally affiliated with Sweden and the other is dealing with whether that country is an OECD country or not. We use multiple regressions to find out to what extent each of these variables can explain the variance of FDI during the years 2000 and 2008.
The coefficient estimates show the expected sign in the relationship between FDI and the various explanatory variables, with the exception of labor cost but only OECD membership shows a significant relationship to FDI (and only when using 2000 data).

Повний текст джерелаThe link between foreign direct investments (FDI) and trade is firmly established in economic literature. Yet despite the vast amount of literature on this subject, very few have tried to look at FDI through the lens of trade theory, choosing rather to approach the subject on either a macroeconomic-level or on firm-level. The purpose and scope of this paper is to explore FDI through the lens of trade-theory. The central questions in this thesis are whether the gravity model of trade can serve as a reliable model for FDI value as well? Are there certain variables in the gravity model that are distinctively powerful determinants of FDI? Two econometric models are used to determine the gravitational impact on FDI, one ordinary OLS model and one fixed-effect model. The findings when using OLS regressions are that the components of the gravity model of trade are indeed key determinants of FDI value, and the two most significant positive determinants were home country GDP as well as home country per-capita GDP. In the fixed-effect model however, several variables were found to have no significant effect on FDI value and only home country GDP and host country per-capita GDP were consistent positive determinants of FDI.

Esta dissertação objetiva analisar comparativamente a evolução dos fluxos de investimento externo direto na economia mundial e brasileira no período entre 1994 e 2011. A metodologia é baseada na estatística descritiva utilizando a correlação de Pearson e dados secundários relacionados com os fluxos de investimento externo direto, estoque, além da origem dos investimentos (países) e discriminação das atividades receptoras de investimento. Examinaram-se inicialmente os fluxos mundiais e constatou-se que os mesmos têm aumentando, atingindo US$ 1,5 trilhões em 2011. Os fluxos também têm se direcionado para os países em desenvolvimento que apresentaram aumento de 12% em 2011 com relação ao ano anterior. Com relação à origem dos investimentos diretos externos, os países que mais investiram no mundo foram por região, Portugal, Estados Unidos, Japão e Nova Zelândia. As atividades da economia que mais receberam investimento externo direto mundial, foram indústria e serviços, com destaque para a indústria química e serviços de utilidade pública. No caso brasileiro, os países que mais investiram foram os Países Baixos, seguido dos EUA e Espanha. Nas atividades econômicas, o Brasil recebeu maiores investimentos no setor de serviços em 2011, com destaque para os serviços financeiros. O impacto na balança comercial e emprego foram positivos, todavia, com taxas de crescimento bem distintas. No caso do investimento brasileiro no exterior, os fluxos se direcionaram em sua maioria para os Países Baixos, e as atividades econômicas mais investidas no mundo pelas multinacionais brasileiras foram petróleo e gás natural e extração de minerais metálicos, metalúrgica e serviços financeiros. Com a análise da correlação entre os fluxos de investimento direto e o PIB, taxa de câmbio, taxa de inflação, taxa de juros e taxa de desemprego, concluiu-se que o produto interno bruto está positivamente relacionado com os fluxos de investimento direto com intensidade alta; a relação com a taxa de câmbio se mostrou positiva em alguns anos e negativa em outros; a taxa de inflação, a taxa de juros e a taxa de desemprego se mostraram negativamente relacionadas com os fluxos, confirmando a teoria.
This dissertation aims to comparatively analyze the evolution of FDI flows in the world economy and Brazil between 1994 and 2011. The methodology is based on descriptive statistics and analysis of secondary data related to flows of foreign direct investment, stock, beyond the origin of investments (countries) and discrimination against recipients of investment activities. Were examined initially global flows and found that they are increasing, reaching $ 1.5 trillion in 2011. The flows have also been directed to developing countries which showed an increase of 12% in 2011 compared with the previous year. Regarding the origin of foreign direct investment, countries that have invested most in the world by region, Portugal, United States, Japan and New Zealand. The activities of the economy that received more foreign direct investment worldwide, were industry and services, with emphasis on the chemical industry and utilities. In Brazil, the countries that invested were the Netherlands, followed by the USA and Spain. In economic activities, the country received more investment in the service sector in 2011, with emphasis on financial services. The impact on the trade balance and employment were positive, however, with very different growth rates. In the case of Brazilian investment abroad, the flow is directed mostly to the Netherlands, and economic activities more invested in the world by Brazilian multinationals were oil and natural gas extraction and metal ore, metallurgical and financial services. With the analysis of the correlation between flows of direct investment and GDP, exchange rate, inflation rate, interest rate and unemployment rate, it was concluded that the gross domestic product is positively related to direct investment flows with high intensity , the relationship with the exchange rate was positive in some years and negative in others, the rate of inflation, the interest rate and the unemployment rate showed negatively related flows, confirming the theory.

Повний текст джерелаNos dias que decorrem, assistimos a uma necessidade de resposta organizacional aos desafios e pressões do mercado a uma escala cada vez mais global, assim como uma dependência cada vez maior dos mercados externos. A internacionalização das empresas tornou-se numa das tendências mais importantes na economia de hoje. Este é um dos maiores desafios para empresas de todas as dimensões, mas, ao mesmo tempo, um dos maiores objetivos. Desta forma, as empresas têm atribuído, ao longo dos anos, uma importância crescente ao fenómeno da internacionalização e do Investimento Direto Estrangeiro, uma vez que a Exportação tem demonstrado não ser, por si só, suficiente para o sucesso de várias organizações. O conceito de IDE está, portanto, cada vez mais presente na mente dos gestores que pretendem arriscar e que não ficam satisfeitos apenas com a presença nos mercados internos. Neste sentido, com a realização deste trabalho que tem por base a investigação através da utilização do método exploratório qualitativo de estudo de caso, pretendo estudar, em primeiro lugar, os fluxos de investimento entre a Polónia e Portugal e expor quais as motivações que levam os investidores portugueses a deslocarem-se a si e, em alguns casos, aos seus negócios para a Polónia, ou seja, o que faz da Polónia um país tão atrativo para o investimento estrangeiro, nomeadamente o investimento português. O outro objetivo do meu trabalho é estudar as determinantes e variáveis que influenciam os fluxos internacionais das empresas de produção polacas, assim como os melhores modos de entrada nos mercados estrangeiros. Para tal, foquei-me no estudo de caso da empresa Eco-skór, uma empresa industrial polaca, fundada por um gestor português que se mudou para a Polónia com o intuito de fundar esta empresa, juntamente com um gestor polaco. Após o enorme sucesso da mesma no mercado polaco e em mercados estrangeiros, através de exportação, os gestores decidiram dar início ao processo de internacionalização da empresa através de IDE e estão, neste momento, a construir uma filial em Portugal.
Nowadays, we are witnessing a need for organizational response to market challenges and pressures on an increasingly global scale, as well as an increasing dependence on external markets. The internationalization of companies has become one of the most important trends in today's economy. This is one of the biggest challenges for companies of all sizes, but at the same time one of the biggest goals. In this way, companies have attributed, over the years, an increasing importance to the phenomenon of internationalization and Foreign Direct Investment, since Exportation has shown not to be, by itself, sufficient for the success of several organizations. The concept of FDI is, therefore, increasingly present in the minds of managers who want to take risks and who are not satisfied only with their presence in domestic markets. In this sense, with the realization of this work, which is based on research through the use of the exploratory qualitative case study method, I intend to study, firstly, the investment flows between Poland and Portugal and expose what motivations lead Portuguese investors to move themselves and, in some cases, their businesses to Poland, i.e., what makes Poland such an attractive country for foreign investment, namely Portuguese investment. The other objective of my work is to study the determinants and variables that influence the international flows of Polish manufacturing companies, as well as the best ways to enter foreign markets. To this end, I focused on the case study of Eco-skór, a Polish industrial company, founded by a Portuguese manager who moved to Poland in order to found this company, together with a Polish manager. After the enormous success of the company on the Polish market and on foreign markets, through exports, the managers decided to start the process of internationalization of the company through FDI and are currently building a subsidiary in Portugal.

Understanding determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Agricultural Foreign Direct Investment (AGFDI) is vital to policy makers in developing countries. FDI is a source of capital for the host country that does not affect its debt balance. Even so, technological spillover, better infrastructure as well as an increase in value added and market access have been the source of motivation to increase efforts to attract FDI. As for AGFDI, ongoing uncertainty with the financial markets created a shift in private investment towards tangible assets, which favors AGFDI to developing countries. Nevertheless, investment in agriculture suffers from low commodity prices and increasing productivity loss that discourage FDI and AGFDI. Therefore, it is crucial for policy makers to understand the determinants of AGFDI to create an attractive environment for potential investors. We use country level panel data to estimate the impacts of country-level economic and social variables on FDI and AGFDI. The data consist of 22 developing countries. A subsample of 13 Latin American countries is also studied. Country and year fixed effects are used to isolate the impacts of the explanatory variables on FDI and AGFDI. The explanatory variables wer constructed to avoid contemporaneous endogeneity. FDI determinants are consistent with previous studies and confirm traditional variables such as economy size, infrastructure and trade openness encourage FDI. A new variable that measures energy imports as a share of total energy use was negative for both main samples of FDI. The results of the Latin American panel for AGFDI, were mostly consistent with FDI determinants. Infrastructure, energy imports and economy size, as well as forestland share and agricultural value-add were statistically significant for the amount of investment inflow and total flow respectively. Further analysis with larger samples is necessary to confirm findings. Also, social and environmental impacts of AGFDI should be included in future studies.

Повний текст джерелаIn an attempt to answer these questions, this thesis tackles the main issues underlining FDI and developing countries. After analysing the pros and cons of FDI for developing countries and other interested parties, this thesis scrutinizes the regulation of FDI as a means to balance the interests of the concerned parties, giving an assessment of the balance of interests in some existing and potential FDI regulations. Furthermore, this thesis highlights the case against the deregulation of FDI and its consequences for developing countries. It concludes by formulating regulatory FDI guidelines for developing.

This paper studies economic factors that affect a multinational’s decision between serving a foreign market via foreign direct investment (FDI) and setting up a joint venture (JV) with a local firm in the host country. The factors that we consider include the substitutability of products produced by competing firms, as well as the hotly debated intellectual property rights (IPRs) protection. In a simple North-South framework, we show that JV is the equilibrium market structure when the degree of R&D spillover is moderate, products are considerably substitutable, and IPRs strong. The government of South needs to maintain a minimum level of IRP to encourage an effective JV. For increasing social welfare, the South also needs to have a policy that limits foreign ownership in a JV.

This doctoral thesis is composed by three articles about the influence of the external factors shaping the foreign direct investment (FDI). I propose three discussions specifically about the institutional environment and macroeconomic conditions shaping the FDI behavior. First, the study analyzes the impact of country-specific macroeconomic variables on outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) flows from Brazil. I have applied a vector auto-regression (VAR) in order to determine the key drivers of OFDI flows, and tested the variables for Granger causality. This study improves on previous empirical analyses about home country determinants of outward FDI, which have proposed comparable time series models, mostly with inconclusive results. I argue that some of these studies have been biased by ill-conditioning arising from the estimation of too many factors with too few data points. This study corrects this by using a thresholded VAR, which explicitly imposes a parsimony restriction to the number of coefficients to be estimated. The results corroborate theoretical models of OFDI, and shed more light on the macroeconomic drivers of foreign direct investment from an emerging economy, using Brazil as a case study. In sequence, I discuss the impact of corruption levels on FDI. I have applied a panel data set in order to determine the duration of FDI flows invested abroad based on the corruption levels of the host countries. I argue that the time of permanence of FDI flows could varies since the existence of corruption levels, since the existence of weak institutional environment would create unfavorable conditions, and also shaping the kind of FDI projects which means a short or long term duration. Finally, I propose a discussion on the effectiveness of institutional environment regarding law application and its impact on the firm’s performance. Specifically, I test the conjecture of how different institutional environment perceptions (represented by firms’ expectations about the legal system) result in different performance levels of firms. I contend that the mere existence of a law system does not ensure their enforcement. Therefore, firms respond distinctively towards each environment to increase their performance. This suggests the need to examine more carefully the interaction of institutions.
Esta tese é composta por três artigos que tratam da influência do ambiente externo como fator de moldagem dos fluxos de investimento direto estrangeiro (IDE). São propostos três ensaios tendo em vista discutir como o ambiente institucional e condições macroeconômicas moldam os fluxos de investimento direto estrangeiro. O primeiro ensaio analisa o impacto de variáveis macroeconômicas na saída de investimento direto estrangeiro no caso brasileiro. Utiliza-se como metodologia vetor auto regressivo (VAR) e causalidade de Granger para determinar os determinantes dos fluxos de IDE das empresas brasileiras no exterior. Este estudo contribui para a literatura em negócios internacionais mediante da melhoria de análises empíricas já realizadas sobre o tema. A literatura existente, comparada ao uso de séries temporais mostra-se inconclusiva. Argumenta-se que alguns destes estudos são enviesados pela falta de coerência na especificação dos dados. Nesta ótica, o ensaio corrige usando thresholded VAR, do qual impõe restrições no tratamento dos dados e no número de coeficientes a ser estimado. Os resultados corroboram com os modelos de IDE existentes e oferece um novo olhar sobre os vetores que IDE de um país emergente, neste caso, usando o caso brasileiro. Em seguida, é discutido o impacto dos níveis de corrupção no IDE. Foi aplicado a metodologia de dados em painel para determinar a duração dos fluxos de IDE e a respectiva interação com os níveis de corrupção dos países hospedeiros. Argumenta-se que o tempo de permanência dos fluxos de IDE varia de acordo com os níveis de corrupção, uma vez que um ambiente institucional fraco é cria condições desfavoráveis. Desta maneira, níveis de corrupção moldam o tipo de projeto de investimento externo, no que condiz o seu tempo de duração. Por fim, propõe-se uma discussão acerca da efetiva do ambiente institucional tendo em vista a aplicação das leis e o impacto no desempenho das empresas. É testado, especificamente, como as diferenças na percepção do ambiente institucional (representado pela expectativa do Sistema Legal pela ótica empresarial) resulta em distintos níveis de desempenho. Neste trabalho, afirmase que a mera existência do sistema legal não garante a sua efetividade. Destarte, empresas reagem de maneira distinta em cada ambiente em prol de aumentar seu desempenho. Tal distinção ressalta um olhar mais apurado e cuidadoso em como as instituições interagem.

Повний текст джерелаForeign Direct Investment (FDI) began as a worldwide phenomenon in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Even then, it formed only a small portion of foreign investments for decades, as a greater percentage took the form of portfolio investments. This was the case for example in 1914, when 90% of all foreign investment flows took the form of portfolio investment. Over time, however, there was a steady shift in the composition of foreign investments. In fact, about a quarter of foreign investment flows took the form of FDI in the 1920s. The drop in portfolio investments came about as a result of the collapse of the world monetary system in the 1930s, provoked by World War 1 and the Great Depression. There was, however, a general drop in the two types of investment during the interwar years. Unlike portfolio investment, FDI proved amazingly resilient and gradually recovered in the late 1930s. FDI again improved with the end of the Second World War, and became even more prominent after the 1960s in developing countries. This was not the case, however, which was yet to have its share of FDI flow. The main focus of this study is to investigate why Cameroon lags behind other developing countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) in terms of attracting FDI in spite of its membership of, and participation in, bilateral, regional and multilateral trade and investment treaties, and its attractive investment policies. The above argument applies explicitly to FDI because Regional Integration Agreements (RIAs) are said to boost FDI inflows from non-member countries. It is universally acknowledged that a well-designed policy framework for investment, capable of attracting FDI, would be productive and successful. Thus, for Cameroon to be competitive in attracting FDI, it is obliged to review its investment policies which continue to face the challenges of a changing global economy.
