“…A study by Kiyota and Urata (2004) indicates that the depreciation of the host country currency attracts FDI and large volatility in real exchange rate restricts FDI. On the other hand, Solocha, Soskin, and Kasoff (1989) find that FDI is positively correlated with the level and volatility of foreign exchange rates.…”

A decision to establish foreign direct investment (FDI) involves a lot of critical thinking, especially in deciding a place to locate the investment. Evaluation and consideration comprise of costs and benefits of launching the FDI. This study focuses on time series data for the sample period of 1970 to 2009. The main objective of this study is to identify the major determinant of the inward flows of FDI for Malaysia by employing the bounds testing (ARDL) approach to cointegration. Of all the variables being tested, trade openness is found to be the most influential variable in attracting the inflows of FDI as it shows consistent results in the short run as well as in the long run in all models being tested. Since the trade openness which represents the liberalization of the Malaysian economy could induce the inflows of FDI, some policy actions can be taken up to enhance the trade openness.

Agglomeration and Competition among Chinese Cities: An Investigation of Taiwanese High-Tech Foreign Direct Investment

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The purpose of this study was to investigate how Taiwanese high-tech firms' foreign direct investment (FDI) leads to agglomeration and competition among cities in China. By using social network analysis to analyze 1,111 subsidiaries affiliated with 270 multinational corporations (MNCs) during the years between 1988 and 2006 in 30 major Chinese cities, this study finds that: 1) agglomeration in Chinese cities falls into three primary categories: the hub cluster, the communication-extended cluster, and the computer-extended cluster. Among the aforementioned clusters, the hub cluster is the most critical in terms of firm location, and therefore is often a high-priority investment site for Taiwanese high-tech firms. 2) Chinese cities fall into four primary groups, or blocks: the core block, the coast block, the inland block, and the periphery block; these groups were determined by applying a structural equivalence analysis of which members of each type are in competition with one another. By linking the findings of the urban network characteristics to Chinese regional economic policies, this study provides guidance to aid executives in determining the optimal location for future FDI. Implications and suggestions for host country governments in terms of firms' investment strategies are also discussed
