Abstract:
This paper investigates the enabling factors of domestic institutions and foreign direct investment (FDI) on firm innovation in China. China has made significant institutional changes and has attracted substantial FDI, aiming to facilitate domestic innovation. Drawing on the institution-based view, we investigate how domestic institutions and FDI affect firm innovation. The results from a comparative case study of five Chinese firms and a large-sample econometric analysis based on Chinese firms reveal the positive impact of domestic institutions on innovation, but FDI is shown to have negligible effects. We argue that, given China's institutional setting, FDI may be a channel for technology transfer but this does not necessarily lead to innovation.

Abstract This study focuses on the influence of institution quality on foreign direct investment (FDI) outflows. For empirical estimation, we use a dataset covering 102 home and 67 host countries from 2001 to 2016. We use the gravity approach and apply the Poisson pseudo maximum likelihood method to derive unbiased estimates. A set of institutional variables in a country is integrated into a single institutional index using principal component analysis. Our main findings are the following. First, we only identify a positive influence of the level of institutional development on FDI outflows for the institutionally developed countries. Second, we have not found evidence for crowding out national investment in the countries with weak institutions. Third, increases in the level of institutions stimulate horizontal rather than vertical outward FDI in an economy. Finally, institutional distance negatively affects the level of outward FDI only when the institutional distance between the two countries is large. The policy implications of this research are strongly in favour of further developing institutions.

Abstract:
Abstract Institutions are generally perceived as an important determinant of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Which institutions matter and why for FDI, remains however one of prominent questions in public policy debate amid complexities related to different institutional dimensions, and incomplete or even vague understanding of underlying mechanism(s) at work. In this paper we account for these ambiguities, and focus on institutions that reveal government efforts to design proper institutional and policy framework to attract FDI, as opposed to considering institutions in broader sense. Specifically, we contribute to FDI policy debate by analysing the impact of institutions measuring Investment policy and promotion on inward FDI flows in South East Europe (SEE). To this end we use a unique dataset that is comprised of specific, FDI related institutional indicators developed and published by the OECD. The results of this empirical investigation deeper our understanding on whether differences in FDI policies and institutional set-up across South East European (SEE) countries explain variations in inward FDI flows relaying on bilateral FDI flows and the gravity modelling technique. We bring novel evidence that investment policy efforts seemingly do pay off, highlighting the importance of progress and reforms embodied not only in FDI regulation, but also in FDI policy variables including FDI Promotion and Facilitation, Transparency, Privatisation policy and Public Private Partnership in attracting FDI in SEE. The analysed institutional effect properly accounts for the possible time-variant and context-dependant effect of institutions. The suggested importance of FDI policy variables seem valuable in terms of general FDI policy issues and trade-offs.

Abstract:
This paper discusses the influence of institutional quality on FDI stock inflows towards eight developing countries in Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Institution in this paper is classified in four forms, namely legal, bureaucratic, politics, and economic institutions. This paper utilizes the method of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and panel data regression. After using PCA method to identify which variables hold the most importance, the authors then constructed an individual index for four institutions as defined before. These indices are then used for panel data regression. The result of this paper indicates that out of four forms of institutions, three institutions are found to be significant determinants. These three institutions are legal, bureaucratic, and economic institutions. Surprisingly, while bureaucratic institution has positive coefficients, the other two forms of institutions have negative coefficients, suggesting that FDI stock inflows towards developing countries in ASEAN are more likely to be motivated by weak legal and economic institutions.

Abstract:
China has become the world's second largest FDI destination in recent years, despite its poor institution status. The success of China seems to undermine the existing theoretical paradigm that good institutions are significantly determinant factors to attract FDI. This paper aims to explain three locational advantages possessed by China which are domestic market, relatively low wages and broad global market access as attracting factors to FDI inflow amid poor institutions. Furthermore, this paper will explain correlation of FDI with poor institutions in China from some elements of governance.

Abstract:
In this paper, we re-assess the nexus between various institutional indicators and foreign direct investment (FDI) flows in 16 Arab countries for the period (1985-2017) by employing the system Generalized Method of Moments. We contribute to existing literature in three ways: First, the impact of each institutional quality indicator on FDI flows is examined separately. Second, construct an institutional index in order to capture the overall impact of institutions on FDI. Finally, the paper also looks at the impact of the Arab Spring on FDI flows. Based on dynamic panel models, the empirical results show that some institutional indicators are more important than others in attracting more FDI in-flows. The results indicate that, the investment profile, law and order, and political institutions, lead to increased FDI flows. We also find a negative association between the Arab Spring unrest and FDI inflows.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to find out how the legal system interacts with other institutions in attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into Africa. Design/methodology/approach The authors use annual panel data of 49 African countries over the period 1980 to 2011, and use the system generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation technique and pooled panel data regression. Findings The authors find that the source of a country’s legal system deters FDI inflow as institutions alone cannot bring in the needed quantum of FDI. In terms of trading blocs, it was found that there is negative significant relationship between institutional quality and FDI for South African Development Community (SADC) as well as Economic Community of West Africa States (ECOWAS) countries. Practical implications For policy implications, the results suggest that reliance on institutions alone cannot project the continent to attract the needed FDI. Originality/value Empiricists have devoted considerable effort to estimating the relationship between institutions and FDI on the African continent, but this paper seeks to ascertain the effect of legal systems and institutional quality within African specific trade and regional blocks.

Abstract:
There is a significant debate underway regarding the risks and rewards of foreign direct investment (FDI) for countries in the Global South. These discussions are particularly relevant to the people of Latin America, where the use of inward FDI as a mechanism to support economic development has had dramatic results, both positive and negative. One of the key works in the study of FDI is Robert I. Rotberg’s argument that FDI is critical to support the development of weak states; however, the applicability of this theory faces difficulty in the context of Latin America, where middle-income countries have extractive institutions (Rotberg, 2002). I use the cases of Mexico and Peru to demonstrate that for middle-income countries, extractive institutions can hamper the rewards of FDI and even exacerbate development problems or create new ones. In this regard, the sector of FDI will determine the nature of the impact. In states with extractive institutions, FDI in the natural resource sector is prone to stimulating social conflict. In states with extractive institutions, FDI in the manufacturing sector begets a situation of stagnated development, as the jobs that are introduced are of poor quality and low wages.

Abstract:
Motivation: Central and Eastern European countries (CEE) in spite of a long period of European Union membership and integration with the developed economies of Western Europe are still on the path of convergence, i.e. pursuing the highly developed countries in terms of, among others, GDP per capita. Assuming that the FDI inflow carries numerous benefits for the economic growth of the recipient country, those economies still compete against one another for foreign capital. One of the factors that attracts FDI is high quality of institutional surrounding. Aim: assessment of institutional competitiveness of the selected CEE countries (Czech Republic, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary) as well as verification of the relationship between institutional competitiveness and the FDI inflow to the analyzed economies. Materials and methods: The article reviews positions obtained by the selected CEE countries in the ranking of competitiveness published by Global Economic Forum (Global Competitiveness Report). The analysis and assessment of CEE countries competitiveness focused around the institutional quality assessment. Quantitatively, the connection was revealed between competitiveness ranking in the field of institutions and FDI inflow per capita and FDI as % of GDP to the economies under consideration. Results: the analysis of the global competitiveness index (GCI) allows to notice that among the CEE countries, Estonia is characterized with the highest institutional competitiveness. The detailed analysis indicated that low social capital quality decreases institutional competitiveness in case of all analyzed economies. The conducted quantitative analysis of the potential link between the GCI?Pillar 1. Institutions index and the inflow of foreign direct investments to CEE countries indicates the positive correlation of those variables. Higher index values (institution quality assessment) corresponds to the higher FDI per capita level and FDI calculated as GDP percentage.

Abstract:
The paper estimates the impact of institutions’ quality on the attraction of foreign direct investment (FDI) to developing countries. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to develop a new measure of quality of institutions: Institutional Efficiency Index (IEI). In order to appraise quantitatively the effect of institutional quality on FDI entry, we used a panel data regression analysis on a dataset covering 40 countries from different developing regions for which the necessary data were accessible during the period 2011-2015. The paper argues that the institutional efficiency, as a measure of institutional quality, enhances the attractiveness of developing countries to FDI. The results of this paper suggest that FDI is mainly determined by institutional quality. A host country endowed with a high quality of institutions will be more attractive to foreign investors. In order to improve their competitiveness in term of attraction of foreign investment, developing countries should work more on providing a stable environment as well as on the transparency of policy implementation regarding the entry of multinational companies.

Abstract:
In recent decades, a wide strand of literature has investigated the determinants of inward foreign direct investment, or FDI, and has acknowledged the role played by domestic institutions in either attracting or discouraging multinational firms’ investing decisions. In the meantime, a growing number of studies have addressed a complementary issue, that is whether increasing amounts of inward FDI have an effect on some institution of the host country. As a matter of fact, it is very likely that the relationship between FDI and domestic institutions is mutual, and the studies that mainly focus on either the influence of institutions on FDI, or on the effect of FDI on institutions, should properly account for that. My Ph.D. thesis aims to further investigate this subject, namely, the relationship between inward FDI and institutions. To this purpose, after reviewing the state of the art concerning this issue, it clarifies the concept of informal institutions, it examines the influence of the latter on inward FDI by conducting a meta-analysis of empirical studies focusing on this topic, and it investigates the impact of increasing amounts of inward FDI on domestic institutions. The main findings are as follows: informal institutions, especially in the form of social networks and values in favour of FDI, matter for foreign investors’ decisions; increasing amounts of inward FDI have a positive influence on the quality of domestic institutions, especially when institutional quality is measured in terms of political stability, regulatory quality and rule of law, and when the host country is a developing economy.
Negli ultimi decenni, un ampio filone di letteratura ha studiato le determinanti degli investimenti diretti esteri in entrata, o IDE, e ha riconosciuto il ruolo svolto dalle istituzioni nazionali nell'attrarre o scoraggiare le decisioni di investimento delle multinazionali. Nel frattempo, un numero crescente di studi ha affrontato una questione complementare, ossia se un numero crescente di IDE in entrata abbia un effetto su alcune istituzioni del Paese di destinazione. In effetti, è molto probabile che il rapporto tra IDE e istituzioni nazionali sia reciproco, e gli studi che si concentrano principalmente sull'influenza delle istituzioni sugli IDE, o sugli effetti degli IDE sulle istituzioni, dovrebbero appropriatamente tenere conto di ciò . La mia tesi di dottorato si propone di approfondire ulteriormente questo tema, ossia la relazione tra IDE in entrata e istituzioni. A tal fine, dopo aver esaminato lo stato dell'arte relativo a questa tematica, chiarisce il concetto di istituzioni informali, esamina l'influenza di queste ultime sugli IDE in entrata conducendo una meta-analisi degli studi empirici incentrati su questo argomento, e indaga l'impatto di un aumento degli investimenti esteri diretti verso le istituzioni nazionali. I risultati principali sono i seguenti: le istituzioni informali, in particolare sotto forma di reti sociali e valori a favore degli IDE, sono rilevanti per le decisioni degli investitori stranieri; quantità crescenti di IDE in entrata esercitano un'influenza positica sulla qualità delle istituzioni domestiche, specialmente quando la qualità istituzionale è misurata in termini di stabilità politica, "regulatory quality" e "rule of law", e quando il Paese di destinazione è un'economia in via di sviluppo.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the relationship between institutions and foreign direct investments (FDI). While the issue of how institutions attract FDI (selection) is quite well-researched, the empirical evidence for institutions spreading through FDI (influence) is more ambiguous. We argue that past studies have neglected issues of endogeneity and interdependence in their modelling. We amend these issues by using a Stochastic Actor-Oriented network model which allows for interdependent and endogenous processes. The thesis also addresses the mechanisms governing the general relation between FDI and institutions and what these can tell us about institutional change and the process of globalisation. The model provides no evidence that FDI helps to spread institutions from home to host countries, but it does provide evidence that the selection effect can be an important dynamic between FDI and a certain set of institutions. Finally, we argue that FDI does not seem to be a contributory factor to institutional convergence.

Abstract:
The basic assertion of this thesis is that policy makers' belief systems and economic institutions have to change their structures and contents as the nation's economic developmental stage is upgraded. Put differently, a state's economic performance or achievement of economic objectives will be facilitated if there is no cleavage or conflict among economic policy, economic belief systems, and economic institutions. This means that the utility of the developmental state is valid until a nation's economy is in a take-off position. Persistent developmentalism after this stage will result in developmentalism losing its validity and becoming a main obstacle for further economic development. At this time, more liberalised economic policies which are not only supported by changed belief systems and institutions but also compatible with the neo-liberalising international political economy are needed. In other words, this thesis does not seek to answer the question 'which is the better strategy for economic development between developmentalism and neo-liberalism?' but emphasises the importance of the proper timing of transition from developmentalism to a liberalised and deregulated economy which is compatible with a mature civil society and the neo-liberalising international political economy.

Abstract:
Property rights are an important subject of economic theory and as a product of institutional qualities an essential determinant of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). The purpose of this study is to examine how middle income countries with, on average, weak property rights can attract investments from abroad, given their (formal) institutions, and if differences in institutional qualities have an effect on FDI inflows. Using a panel approach to observe a sample of 20 countries over ten years, we find that there is mixed evidence supporting this theory. Whilst the theoretical background suggests that institutional qualities do affect a country’s ability to attract or deter investments, we cannot conclude a significant effect in our results. Furthermore, the study concludes that certain products of institutional qualities (democracy, corruption) can lead to mixed effects on the net inflows of FDI, but that an important determinant is the market-size of the country.

Abstract:
There is increasing inflows of FDI into developing economies; yet, systematic studies on determinants of FDI in developing economies are scarce. Against this backdrop, this study examined three key issues nan1ely; the role of government, the impact of institutions and macroeconomic factors on inward FDI in Nigeria. The study used annual data collected from CBN, UNCTAD, World Bank and PRS group. To achieve the first objective, the study grouped the government investment policy changes adopted over the period 1962- 2012 into three major phases: limited promotion (1962- 1969), restrictive practice (1970-1985) and liberal policies and reform phases (1986- 2012). Impact and implications of government foreign investment policies on trends of FDI inflows into Nigeria was examined using trend analysis. The study found that annual growth rate of total inward FDI was highest during the liberal policy and reform phase, and was least during the restrictive practice phase. The study also found that annual growth rate of inward FDI was: higher in the oil sector than in the non-oil sector during the SAP era (1986-1994), higher in the non-oil sector than in the oil sector after NIPC reform (1995- 2012), and annual growth rate of total inward FDI was higher during the SAP era (1986- 1994) than after the NIPC reform (1995- 201 2). The study used CCR and FMOLS regressions models to analyse the second and third objectives and showed that political instability, easing bureaucratic impediments, democratic accountability, government expenditure, trade openness and market size had positive and significant impact on inward FDI in Nigeria. Finding on interest rate was inconclusive and exchange rates have negative and significant impact on inward FDI in Nigeria. However, high inflation has a negative and insignificant impact on inward FDI while investment risks have positive and insignificant impact on inward FDI in Nigeria.

Abstract:
Most scholars believe that democracies guarantee the rule of law and provide superior institutions, which influence developing states' development trajectories, as well as firms' decisions on where to do business. However, I argue that these superior institutions are prior to the institutions of democracy and constitute the concept of governance infrastructure, and are therefore the key institutional determinants of state's economic outcomes. I find that the institutions that comprise a state's governance infrastructure (GI) are separate conceptually from the institutions that comprise democracy, and that the quality of developing states' GI 1) must reach a certain threshold before democracy positively affects economic development; 2) sends a signal to investors concerning potential transaction costs that investors may incur, ultimately determining the amount of FDI developing states' receive, while being the only domestic institutions that affect investors decision making; 3) determines the quality and provision of a state's intermediary public goods, which are an additional causal mechanism to signaling in determining a state's FDI inflows.

Abstract:
Nordic Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) play an important role in providing sustainable development for Africa which accordance with their mandates.  By investing in private equity Funds in Africa, investee companies have covered various sectors inAfricawhich may not only improve economic development but also increase employment. Additionally, investing in a Fund can spread risk through diversifications and help DFIs to share knowledge with Fund manager in local presence.   This study analyzes the management control systems (MCS) of DFIs’ investing in private equity Funds, wherein we mainly focus on output control and behavior control which are two types of control widely discussed in previous research and literature. Hereby we set three hypotheses based on our research and get findings to support the research questions, which are: 1.      DFIs use output control mechanism with contractual framework to secure their investment. Output control sets standards as to targets. It plays a fundamental role in the control process, as the contractual framework is short of standardized in private equity industry and Fund managers are selected strictly during screening process.   2.      DFIs use behavior control to interact with Fund managers. Behavior control means appropriate instruction and guidelines imposed as results become foreseeable during the monitoring process. It becomes a central element where DFIs have to interact with Fund managers to track the investment progress & development effect, including investment decision making.   3.      DFIs’ syndicated investment affects their control activities. Nordic DFIs’ investment strategy is making co-investment in Funds. When more parties are involved, the monitoring and control process become different compared with only one investor and it is affected by syndicated investment. While we did not deeply explore the control mechanism and process under syndication investment by either quantitative & qualitative method or case studying approach, we conclude that it does exist based on communication with interviewees.   The word “Control” looks like a bureaucratic word. However, we found that Alignment is essential in control process for each partners while behavior control helps to assure the alignment. We think that control process become less difficult when previous strict selection of trust partner is successful. We suggest that the alignment between DFIs and other investors as well as Funds should be strengthened in the control process, so that investment objectives can be well realized.   Besides Nordic DFIs, Africa also benefits from others such asChina’s “going global” strategy to encourage outward FDI. China-Africa Development Fund (CADFund) is the first Fund focused specially on large scale investment in Africa among Private Equity Funds inChina. China Development Bank (CDB) is the shareholder of CADFund, who provide resources and support to CADFund. By briefly comparing Nordic DFIs and CADFund, we found they use similar investment instruments and also similar strategies, such as investment in less developed countries inAfricato improve economic conditions, support home companies investing in Africa etc. Including an analysis on CAD as well as the comparison with Nordic DFIs not only strengthen the understanding of DFIs’ activities in Africa, but also clarify the different investment characteristics of Western and Eastern investors in Africa. We also suggest that Nordic DFIs and CADFund can share experience and knowledge to promote sustainable development for Africa.
Nordic Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) spelar en viktig roll för att skapa en hållbar utveckling för Afrika i linje med dess mandat. Genom att investera i private Equity-fonder i Afrika har investeringsföretagen täckt olika sektorer i Afrika, något som inte bara kan förbättra den ekonomiska utvecklingen, utan även öka sysselsättningen. Dessutom kan investering i fonder sprida risker genom diversifiering och hjälpa instituten för DFI att sprida kunskaper från fondförvaltare på lokal närvaro. Denna studie analyserar ledningskontrollsystemet för DFIs’ investeringar i private Equity-fonder och vi fokuserar främst på produktions- och beteendekontroll, Dessa är de två typer av styrning som allmänt diskuteras i tidigare forskning och litteratur. Härmed ställer vi upp följande tre hypoteser som är baserade på relevant forskning och slutsats för att stödja nedslående hypoteserna: 1. DFIs använder en produktionskontrollmekanism med avtalsram för att säkerställa sina investeringar. Produktionskontroll-mekanismen är en metod som sätter standard enligt målet. Denna metod fungerar som den mest grundläggande i kontrollprocessen, eftersom avtalsramarna redan är standardiserade i privata Equity-fonder och fondförvaltaren är omsorsgsfullt valda i den initiala urvalsprocessen. 2. DFIs använder kontroll av beteende för att interagera med fondförvaltare. Beteendekontroll används beroende på utfall av investesteringen, och i denna kontrollprocess verkställs lämpliga instruktioner och riktlinjer efter resultat. DFI och fondförvaltaren samarbetar här för att följa investeringsprocessen och utvecklingseffekten, däribland också att fatta investeringsbeslut. 3. DFIs' saminvesteringar i fonder kommer att påverka dess kontrollverksamhet. DFI investeringsstrategier är att göra saminvesteringar i fonder. När flera partier är inblandade blir spårande- och kontrollprocessen annorlunda jämfört med endast en investerare och detta är påverkad av sammarbetsinvesteringar. Även om vi inte gjorde en djup undersökning av kontrollmekanism och processen under sammarbetsinvestering gällande kvantitativ och kvalitativ metoder eller fältstudier. Men vi sammanfattar detta att det existerar via kommunikation med intervjuer i föreliggande studie kan vi sammanfattningsvis slå fast att styrningen via fonder påverkas av att en DFI inte ensamt investerar i en fond. Ordet "kontroll" (på svenska snarare ”styrning”) kan låta byråkratiskt, men vi kommer fram till att kontrollprocessen huvudsakligen sker i samförstånd för varje part, medan beteendekontroll underlättar samförståndet. Vi tror att kontrollprocessen blir mindre komplicerad när val av godtrogna parter lyckas. Vi föreslår ett utökat samarbete mellan DFIs och andra investerare och fonder under kontrollprocessen, så att investeringsmålen kan uppnås. Förutom investeringar från nordiska DFIer drar Afrika också fördel av andra initiativ, såsom Kinas "going global"-strategi för att uppmuntra direkta utlandsinvesteringar. Den Kinesisk-Afrikanska Utvecklingsfonden (CADFund) är den första fonden som fokuserar speciellt på strategiska investeringar, med det största antalet private Equity-fonder i Kina, medan Kinesiska utvecklingsbanken (CDB) är aktieägare till CADFund, och förser fonden med resurser och stöd. Genom en kort jämförelse av Nordic DFIs och CADfund fann vi att liknande investeringsinstrument med samma strategi används, såsom investering i mindre utvecklade länder i Afrika för att förbättra de ekonomiska villkoren, hjälpa företag från respektive hemland att investera i Afrika etc. Detta kan också stärka förståelsen för DFIs verksamhet i Afrika. Vi har valt att även analysera CADFund samt göra en jämförelse med de nordiska DFIs, vilket inte bara stärkt vår förståelse av DFIernas aktiviteter i Afrika, men också hjälpt till att förstå och klargöra skillnader mellan investerare från väst respektive öst när det gäller investeringar i Afrika. Vi föreslår även att nordiska DFIs och CADfond kan dela erfarenhet och kunskap för främjande av den hållbara utvecklingen i Afrika.
摘  要      北欧发展金融组织构成了为非洲提供可持续发展的重要组成部分，这也符合其运作的使命。通过投资在非洲的私募股权基金，受资公司覆盖非洲的各行业，这不仅促进了当地经济的发展，而且也增加了就业机会。与此同时，投资于基金能够分散风险，并且北欧金融组织能够和当地的基金经理分享投资经验与知识。 本文分析了北欧发展金融组织投资私募股权基金采用的管理控制流程，我们重点研究产出控制和行为控制，这两种控制方法在以前的研究和文献中也被广泛提及。同时我们基于相关理论提出三种假设并得出结论来支持研究问题，它们是：   1.北欧发展金融组织采用产出控制方法及一系列合同及框架条款来保证他们的投资.    产出控制指的是一种根据目标设立标准的控制方法，它在控制控制中起着基础性的作用，因为合同条在这个行业已经基本标准化，而且它们在筛选基金经理时有严格的条件。    2.北欧发展金融组织采用行为控制方法来影响制约基金经理。     行为控制指当结果可以预知时，在控制过程中采用适当的规范和准则.当北欧发展金融组织与基金经理互动来跟踪投资进展，发展效应，以及做投资决定时，它就变得至关重要。   3.北欧发展金融组织的联合投资将会影响到他们的控制行为。      北欧发展金融组织的投资策略是与其他组织共同投资于基金。当多方参与时，跟踪和控制流程就与只有一个投资者参与时不一样，而且其受联合投资的影响。虽然我们没有用定性和定量的方法甚至案例来深入研究在联合投资下的控制机制和流程，但是根据多方面的采访我们认为这个影响确实存在。       “控制”一词虽然听起来官僚，但是我们发现在控制流程中各方的精诚合作至关重要，同时行为控制也能加强这种合作。在这种情况下，我们认为在前期选择好合作伙伴后控制流程就变得相对简单。我们的建议是北欧发展金融组织和其他投资者以及其与基金的合作应该加强，从而实现更好的投资目标。       除了北欧发展金融组织外，非洲也受益于中国的“走出去”对外投资战略。中非发展基金是第一只也是中国最大的专注于非洲投资的私募股权基金。国家开发银行（国开行）是中非发展基金的股东,它可以为该基金提供项目资源与支持。通过对北欧发展金融组织和中非发展基金的简单对比，我们发现他们采用类似的投资工具和策略, 比如投资于非洲的不发达国家来改变当地的经济状况,支持本国企业在非洲投资等.这也将加强读者对北欧发展金融组织在非洲的认识。我们同时也建议北欧发展金融组织和中非发展基金之间能交流投资经验和知识来更好地推动非洲的可持续发展。

Abstract:
This doctoral thesis contains three essays on the macroeconomic impact of inflation targeting: (1) Inflation-targeting regime, as a framework for monetary policy conduct, has been adopted by central banks in thirty countries. Some of these countries enjoy high incomes while others have middle incomes. In contrast to the development-based classification –often applied in the literature, thus ignoring income disparity– this study employs income-based classification in constructing the data sample. The objective is to investigate, using a panel of middle-income countries, whether inflation targeting is a good remedy for high inflation. In addition to the commonly used covariates in the literature, this study also includes in its covariate matrix the worldwide governance indicators as proxy for institutional quality. The findings exhibit a significant reduction of inflation and its volatility among the inflation-targeting adopters compared to the non-adopting middle-income countries. The results are robust to the exclusion of high inflation episodes, and to using the alternative measures of inflation. The results are also robust to the post-estimation sensitivity tests recommended for such empirical analysis. (2) Many economists acknowledge the paramount role that foreign investment plays in fostering economic development and growth via integrating economies around the globe. Studies have shown that foreign investment, particularly foreign direct investment (FDI) is attracted to countries that exhibit good governance, low uncertainty and a high degree of macroeconomic stability. The literature also argues that monetary policy under inflation targeting (IT) mitigates uncertainty, enhances governance and brings macroeconomic stability to the adopting countries. Hence, it would seem that the IT-adoption should enable the adopting countries attract the largest FDI inflows. To verify this conjecture, this study performs a comparison between the IT-adopting countries and the non-adopters in attracting FDI. Using a panel of OECD and middle-income countries, the empirical findings exhibit an interesting but contradicting pattern: when it comes to the OECD countries, the results show that the IT-adopters do better than the non-adopters in attracting the FDI inflows. For the middle-income countries, however, the IT-adoption appears to have the opposite effect: a significant reduction in the FDI inflows is witnessed among the IT-adopters compared to their counterparts. The results are robust to the post-estimation sensitivity tests. (3) Inflation targeting, as a monetary-policy framework, is said to promote economic efficiency and growth. Yet, when evaluating the macroeconomic performance of inflation-targeting regimes, the existing literature only emphasizes the dynamics of inflation and the costs associated with taming inflation. There is hardly any assessment of the claim of efficiency and growth. To fill this gap, and to measure the causal impact of inflation-targeting adoption on economic efficiency, we compare the dynamics of output growth and long-term unemployment between countries that have adopted inflation targeting and the non-adopting countries. Our findings seem to refute the efficiency claim, and paint a bleak picture of inflation targeting: when compared to the countries that did not adopt inflation targeting, there is a significant reduction in the average growth rate among the inflation-targeting adopters by over ½ percentage point. Additionally, long-term unemployment significantly rises among the inflation-targeting countries by almost 2 percentage points as compared to the non-adopters. These results are robust to both the exclusion of the outlier observations and to the sensitivity tests recommended for such analysis.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Institutional Development Fund (FDI) is a newly introduced component of Romanian institutional funding with the purpose of supporting public higher education institutions (HEIs) in their pursuit of the national strategic objectives for higher education. This policy aims to encourage universities to formulate their own answers (through institutional projects) to current higher education challenges such as equity and access for students, internationalisation, regional development, improving the quality of teaching, supporting the entrepreneurial and practical activities developed for the benefit of students, etc. Given its current form as a simple combination between objective-based funding and competitive funding, and its recent implementation at a national level, we propose an in-depth exploration of the policys results focusing on institutional activities and targeted objectives. To this aim, the paper presents the relevant results obtained by universities in the last five years of FDI implementation, the trends of HEIs institutional development (measured at the university level), as well as the direct and indirect influence these might have over the overall quality of the Romanian higher education system. At the same time, we look to identify new institutional measures in response to the actual needs of universities (in accordance with university autonomy) in order to underline new implementation directions in accordance with national policies and strategies, both in relation to funding and in relation to national goals, as well as to explore the potential of FDI funding for quality enhancement in higher education.

Full text
Abstract:
Relating to the establishment and acquisition of a company in Turkey by foreign investors, Foreign Direct Investments Law No.4875, FDI has entered into force on 17.06.2003. FDI formed a notification-based system rather than an approval-based system for foreigners to establish a new company and to take over company shares. Accordingly, company information regarding foreign investors will be notified to the General Directorate of Incentive Implementation and Foreign Capital via “Electronic Incentive Implementation and Foreign Capital Information System”. Foreign investment means establishment of a new company by a foreign investor or share acquisitions of an existing company, any percentage of shares acquired outside the stock exchange or 10 percentage or more of the shares/voting power of a company acquired through the stock exchange, by means of the following economic assets: assets acquired from abroad by the foreign investor which are capital in cash in the form of convertible currency bought and sold by the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey, stocks and bonds of foreign companies excluding government bonds, machinery and equipment, industrial and intellectual property rights; or assets acquired from Turkey by foreign investor which are reinvested earnings, revenues, financial claims, or any other investment-related rights of financial value, rights for the exploration and extraction of natural resources. According to Article 4 of the Regulation for Implementation of Foreign Direct Investment Law, the Ministry of Economy shall provide information on the companies within the scope of foreign direct investments from Trade Registry Offices and related public institutions and organizations.

Full text
Abstract:
While the effect of capital movements on exchange rates is a widely accepted relationship in the relevant literature, there are also findings suggesting that reverse relationships may be valid. Especially in the analysis of the determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), this issue has started to be discussed more in the literature. In this study, the causality relations between exchange rates and FDI are analyzed within the scope of Turkey example with data covering the period 2005-2021. Causality relationships between variables were investigated by Hatemi-J (2012) asymmetric causality test. The data used for empirical analysis were obtained from the CBRT-EVDS database. According to the findings obtained from the asymmetric causality test, while the causality relationship from real effective exchange rate to FDI was determined, causality relationship from FDI to real effective exchange rate could not be determined. In terms of the results obtained, it is thought that internal dynamics may be more effective on the basis of this exceptional process between the real exchange rate and FDI in the Turkish economy. While the instability in the value of the currency makes it difficult to make long-term investment decisions such as FDI, it also causes the investment volume to decrease. As a matter of fact, in the relevant literature, the importance of institutional factors is frequently emphasized among the determinants of FDI for Turkey. Therefore, it is seen that Turkey's ability to establish a stable national currency is one of the prerequisites for attracting more FDI and it should increase its steps to strengthen institutional factors.

Abstract:
Occupational safety is vital and should be prioritised in the public sector's critical performance agenda. Strong safety culture is able to address safety issues. In researching safety culture measures, education sectors such as technical and vocational education and training (TVET) remain ambiguous. This paper describes the work undertaken to develop and evaluate the components of a preliminary research framework for assessing the maturity of safety culture in TVET institutions, i.e., polytechnics, by adapting the existing safety culture maturity (SCM) model with local guidelines documents to the studied organisation. Experts consented to participate in this study and validated the proposed elements under four primary constructs using the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM). The proposed elements must adhere to three FDM principles to be retained: 1) Threshold value (d) ≤ 0.2, 2) Expert Consensus Percentage > 75.0% and 3) Fuzzy score (A) value of α - cut = > 0.5. The construct's threshold (d) value is also accepted with the value (d) 0.2 or less. The selected elements are then used to develop the subsequent phase's framework content. The identified elements are used as components of a preliminary research framework and as an initial point for the established SCM measurement framework for the Polytechnic.

The research dwells extensively and specifically on infringement of PATENT which is actionable and it is the persons vested with the right to Patent that has the right to sue to enforce it. By virtue of Section 10(1) and (2) of the Copyright Act, the first ownership in any literacy or Intellectual Property created by a University or Polytechnic employee belongs to him in the absence of any express assignment of the right by the employee to the University or Polytechnic. The research expresses the beliefs that INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (IP) can be used as a tool to foster INNOVATION and must be vigorously pursued by Nigerian Institution Leaders to encourage generation and exploitation of Intellectual Property (IP). The research recommends funds which can be used to encourage Collaborative Research Pattern in an effective way for Intellectual Property Exploitation. Secondly, SNERGY is critical to success (Collaborative Interdisciplinary Research) rather than those that simply focus on a said field of research. Thirdly, with the presence and regulatory role of National Office for Technology Acquisition and Promotion (NOTAP), favourable bargains can be struck and properly documented through its Intellectual Property Technology Transfer Offices (IPPTOs). In conclusion, there is lack of Intellectual Property (IP) Policy to spell out the functions of Intellectual Property Technology Transfer Offices (IPPTOs) according to Institutions missions and poor awareness of the researchers about the functions of the Office of National Office for Technology Acquisition and Promotion (NOTAP).

O artigo analisa a história do espaço educacional na cidade de São Paulo a partir do Centro Educacional Unificado, um complexo de equipamentos educacionais, culturais e recreativos, implantados pela prefeitura de São Paulo (2002-2004), nos bairros periféricos carentes de equipamentos sociais, espaços públicos e infraestrutura urbana. O CEU foi aclamado por seus idealizadores e pela mídia especializada, como um indutor de urbanidade, pois cria um espaço público diferenciado, que remete à cidade formal, atendendo o público escolar e a comunidade local. Esta análise histórica se desenvolve a partir de três eixos temáticos que consideram a escola como política pública, tipologia arquitetônica e intervenção urbana. É a partir dessa estrutura analítica que se buscou compreender como o equipamento educacional chegou a esse modelo que, ao condominializar uma série de equipamentos tradicionalmente distribuídos pela cidade, equaliza a oferta de serviços a populações carentes, mas tensiona as relações entre a escola e cidade. This article develops an analysis on the history of educational spaces in São Paulo, based on contemporary issues involving the Centro Educacional Unificado (CEU, Unified Educational Center) a complex of educational, cultural and recreational institutions, deployed by the city of São Paulo(2002-2004), in the low-income areas that showed a lack of social facilities, public spaces and urban infrastructure. CEUs were hailed by their developers and specialized media as urbanity inductors because they create a distinctive public space, which referred to the formal city, serving both the public and the local school community.This historical analysis is read from three points of view: the school is at the same time a public policy, an architectural typology and an urban intervention.Studying that analytical framework, this work sought the understanding on how the regular public schools ended up becoming this multi-proposal facility which groups a series of institutions that were traditionally distributed through the city, equalizing the provision of services to underserved populations,however stresses the relation between the school and the city.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Enterprise Development Centres (EDCs) have emerged as a best practice in building local content and capacity and driving economic development in emerging economies. In 2017, prior to Final Investment Decision (FID) of any oil field, ExxonMobil Guyana launched the Centre for Local Business Development (The Centre) in Guyana, managed by DAI Global. This early investment was key to show ExxonMobil's commitment to optimizing local content. The Centre's early mission was to build local competitiveness and support Guyanese businesses in accessing opportunities in the emerging oil & gas sector through capacity building, training, awareness and education. This paper looks at lessons learned five years into the operation of the Guyana Centre for Local Business Development. The objective is to help identify learnings that can be shared with other similar institutions and economic development programs to support implementation of successful strategies especially in relation to supply chain development. This paper focuses on the evolving mission of the Centre from training towards more mentorship of the local supply chain and the process of this evolution and lessons learned along the way. Further, the paper will use empirical findings over the last five years to show the importance of early investments in the supply chain and how this helps to support a growing and evolving economy.

Abstract:
The labour market has increasingly begun to impose, intensively and insistently, criteria for the competence profile of graduates. All the more important is its relationship with the university, providing, to the latter, anongoing and dynamic feedback on the job offer and demand for graduates with a certain profile and level of training. During July-December 2016, the Department of Professional Counselling from Vasile Alecsandri University of Bacău has implemented the project Professional Development and Employability – the convergence of university and labour market (DeProfAn) obtained in a CNFIS-FDI national competition (institutional development funds). It concerned the design, implementation and exploitation of a dedicated SharePoint platform to achieve its main objectives in relation to the labour market: monitoring the graduates’ insertion on the labour market; determining the degree of satisfaction of students and graduates in relation to the training and services offered by the university; identifying the point of view of employers regarding the quality of the graduates’ training. Realistically, platform implementation in monitoring the convergence of university with the labour market takes the form of an experiment. Its production period was 6 months (July-December 2016), the target group was 832 beneficiaries (500 students, 300 graduates, 32 employers).Through this study we aim: to illustrate how such an informatics tool may be achieved / may operate with relatively few funds; to highlight the main streams of data that we intend to collect; to globally interpret the main data sets obtained in terms of the efficiency of the achieved tool; to address the informatics tool and the results obtained through a SWOT analysis, having as a benchmark further development in the future.
