Abstract:

India has become one of the most important countries in a globalized world and foreign direct investments (FDI) are part of it. FDI have been supported by the Indian government since 1991. This paper aims to describe and analyze inflows of FDI into Indian economy. FDI will be analyzed from many angles after the first part which deals with the basic features of India. Third part deals with Indian policy towards FDI and the last one with some of the possible future oportunities to increase FDI inflows into India.

The first empirical chapter investigates the impact of membership of currency unions and trade agreements on FDI inflows, outflows, and net FDI (inflows-outflows) by using pooled OLS estimation method for a sample of 180 countries during the period of 1970 to 2007.

Abstract:

Exceptionally high FDI inflows into Ireland have been one of the main resources of Irish rapid economic growth, and earned the country a title of “Celtic Tiger”. The goal of this thesis is to find out the driving sources behind this high inward investment and to examine whether Ireland has truly enjoyed higher amounts of FDI inflows than predicted by the model. This thesis analyzes the determinants of foreign direct investment in Ireland. The determinants being examined are GDP, GDP per capita, infrastructure, labor productivity, education and trade openness. The analyzed period is from 1997

China has experienced high foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows for the past 30 years since it opened its door to foreign investors especially after the early 1990s. As a result, with more and more foreign invested enterprises in China, China has experienced dramatic changes in its economy and society. This study conducts an empirical analysis on the determinants of FDI regional and sectoral distribution in China and evaluates the impact of FDI on Chinese domestic investment.

Abstract:

Foreign Direct Investment is seen as a critical source of capital inflow and a stimulant of economic growth in many developing nations. It brings with it benefits such as job creation, technology and knowledge transfers just to mention a few. Thus many African countries are keen in finding ways of attracting FDI. The main objective of this paper is to empirically examine the determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) by incorporating an econometric method based on cross-sectional data from 41 African countries over the period 2002-2007.

In the course of the 1980s, Turkey came to recognize the need to change its attitude towards foreign investment, assigning a significant role to direct foreign investment. Hence, after the 1980s, there was a significant increase in the number of foreign firms operating in Turkey and the inf low of foreign capital to Turkey. Although the importance of foreign direct investment in the Turkish economy has been increasing, a variety of questions are far from being resolved. The important obstacle is that the available data do not let us analyze the extent and performance of foreign firms. In this

Recently, vertical spillovers, especially through backward linkages, have been identified as occurring in the host country.

Abstract:

For many years tax competition models and empirical analysis have been showing taxation as a key variable in FDI location decisions. Countries reduce taxation to attract firms in order to create employment and economic development. Firms locate their investments where the net return on capital is higher due to a lower tax burden. But tax competition is not optimal because the lowering of the tax burden causes an inefficient allocation of capital and provision of public goods. Thus, it requires coordination of tax policies in an economic area such as the European Union (EU). <br /> Despite data
