Foreign Direct Investment Inflow Into Partner Countries

5. The modern international trade theories explain trade from a firm, rather than a country, perspective.

Foreign direct investment by multinational corporations is the action of obtaining controlling equity share of a firm in a foreign country. There has been many discussions about the role of FDI in affecting a country’s unemployment rate and economic growth. Of which many believed

Foreign direct investments, unlike loans and grants given to a country, are more stable and resilient especially during economic down turns8. Changes in interest rates greatly affect the loans and grants given to a country for developments especially during economic crises. This negates the level of development achieved due

Engaging in international trade is an effective stimulation of economic growth. David Ricardo’s principle of comparative advantage argues while nations involved in international trade, a country will become specialised in producing a product that has the lowest relative costs. (Economist, 2015) By focusing on the production onto a limited scope of product or industries, firms or the nation will experience rise in productivity due to higher efficiency in allocation and utilisation of resources. As the process of specialisation will cause reallocation of other less efficient resources, nations, as a result, will import products that are less efficiently produced from other countries. While different nations specialising in different goods and services, a greater variety and cheaper products will become available for consumption, improving the quality and quantity of consumption by all nations. To determine whether developing nations are experiencing disadvantage in the international trade, it requires a careful examination with Porter’s Diamond factor endowments. It analysis a nation 's competitiveness under four categories: factor endowments, demand condition, related and supporting industries and firm strategy, structure and rivalry.

Figure 1 shows the net inflow of FDI into the developing countries. There is a fall into the amount of FDI going to the developing countries from late 1980 to early 1990 and in the late 2000. Overall, there is an upward trend of amount of FDI going to the developing countries. The same trend with ODA shown in Figure 2. The amount of Net ODA received by developing countries from 1990 to mid-1990 is fluctuating then continued to fall until 2000. From year 2000 onwards, there is a steady increase of ODA received by the low-income countries. Compared with FDI and Net ODA, personal remittances has a steady upward trend (shown in Figure 3), noting a huge increase in 2008 of US$4.5 billion from US$15.2 billion in 2007. With the

Throughout a range of researches show the widespread perceptions on “open” economies that they encourage more foreign investment. According to Charkrabarti (2001), the ratio of exports and imports to GDP is mostly used to see the significance of openness to FDI. Jordaan (2004) states that the more a country is open to international trade, the more likely to be a factor in the FDI destination decision. The paper further claims that multinational enterprises engaged in export-oriented investments tend to prefer to invest in a more open economy due to high level of transaction costs associated with exporting. High trade protection caused by increased market imperfection affect and implies higher transaction costs.

The focus of this research is examining the affects of foreign direct investment on economic growth. Then the research reached this question: How Does Foreign Direct Investment Effects On Host Country’s GDP (Economic Growth)? Firstly, research starting with discussing the potential of FDI to affect host country’s economic growth and argues that two important objectes for FDI affects on economic growth, inflows of physical capital and technology spillovers, and according to research the technology spillovers have the stronger effect to enhance economic growth in the host country.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has been considered important for the growth of a country. When the individuals or companies from a country invest in another country, it is regarded as FDI. FDI not only strengthens the manufacturing base of the host country but also contributes to the strengthening of the economic outlook. FDI can be seen as an investment that leads directly to job creation in an economy. The unemployment rate decreases due to FDI, which leads to stability in economic, social and political spheres. This leads to establishing the notion that FDI is necessary for a country because it helps in strengthening the economy of a particular country. Ireland has been benefitted by

The correlation between foreign direct investment (FDI) and economic growth is well documented see (Borensztein, De Gregorio, J-W. Lee 98). Even though there has been an extensive amount of research, which includes both FDI and economic growth, there still seems to be a substantial divide between the results; which are concluded within these papers. To begin in this research paper we will define foreign direct

Many writers have tried to figure out if there is a direct link between Foreign direct investment (FDI) and economic growth of an economy in terms of Gross domestic product (GDP) but a reliable procedure hasn’t been found yet.

Recently India’s Home Minister Mr. P. Chidambaram pointed out that surge in foreign capital inflow can be a cause of the rise inflation rate in the economy. This is true! With opening up of the economy, foreign capital has become one of the important factors affecting our economy. The country’s economic policies have changed. We are now an open economy affected by the economic and political happenings of the world. We therefore need to broaden our handling of domestic economic problems like inflation. Inflation is no more only due to supply constraints caused by domestic supply constraint caused by poor monsoon or floods. It is affected by global demand and supply of goods and capital.
