The greenhouse effect was focused by more learners with the global warming. It has become a very serious issue the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and carbon emissions in the process of sustainable economic development in Shandong. This paper studied the relationship trend in middle of FDI, carbon emissions, and greenhouse effect impact mechanism in Shandong Province based on the data from 2000 to 2016 in Shandong Province by simultaneous equation model from qualitative and quantitative analysis. There is an inverted environmental Kuznets curve correlation between FDI and carbon emissions. The mechanism of FDI?s impact on Shandong?s ecological environment in three aspects: scale effect, structure effect, and technology effect. The results show that FDI has negative scale effect, structure effect and positive technology effect on carbon emissions in Shandong Province, and the overall effect is negative. Accordingly, taking the transformation of new and old kinetic energy in Shandong Province as the goal, this paper puts forward the optimization strategy, provides policy suggestions for the government in the implementation of the transformation of new and old kinetic energy, in order to better promote economic development, industrial restructuring and upgrading, and realize the construction of regional ecological civilization.

Although it is very common to argue that the foreign direct investment is beneficial for the economic development of a nation. This exploration investigates the connection amongst FDI and economic development in case of Pakistan. In this study secondary data from 1985 to 2016 is taken to examine the relationship. The investigation included GDP as explained and exports and FDI as explanatory variables. To check data either it is stationary or not the study used Augmented Dickey Fuller test in our study. After making data stationary we have used OLS method to investigate the nature of relationship between the variables. Our results show that there is direct link amongst explained and explanatory variable. The findings also show that there is significant relationship between FDI and economic growth. After analyzing the calculations we came to know that foreign direct investment is a significant element for the economic development because it has positive impact and have significant relation with growth of an economy. Since FDI is an impressive element in economic development so, government should take steps to attract the foreign investors and make policies to encourage the trade liberalization to gain more from the foreign investment.

It has been argued that “Absolute poverty can be alleviated if at least two conditions are met. First, economic growth must occur—or mean income must rise—on a sustained basis. Second, economic growth must be neutral with respect to income distribution or reduce income inequality.” By way of reference to current and previous literature on economic development, this chapter aims to investigate the relationship between poverty, economic growth, and income distribution, as a means of mitigating gaps in the literature on the topic, as well as contributing to the literature of Foreign Direct Investment as a tool for poverty alleviation.

Derivative financial instruments play a major role in financial markets. However, there are rather contradictory views regarding this issue. Their impact on the financial markets, their stability and the economy have not been thoroughly examined. The aim of this paper is to analyse derivatives and the economic situation in the country and to investigate the relationship between the derivatives and the macroeconomic factors which have the greatest impact on the volume of the derivatives. The paper analyses derivatives statistics and macroeconomic indicators in Lithuania. As a result, the relationship between the derivatives and the country’s macroeconomic indicators is examined by identifying the most significant factors, as the structure and volume of derivatives in different markets may be determined by different macroeconomic factors. The performed analysis and estimation have shown that foreign direct investment has the largest impact on the derivatives, their volume and structure, and average earnings have the least impact.

Reducing carbon emissions and realizing green, circular, and low-carbon development is essential for high-quality economic development. Following the construction of a superefficiency SBM model and combining the panel data of three major urban agglomerations in the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2003 to 2017, carbon emission efficiency was measured and analyzed. A spatial Durbin model (SDM) was incorporated to analyze the urban agglomerations in the Yangtze River Economic Belt and the impact of urbanization quality and foreign direct investment (FDI) on carbon emission efficiency. Finally, the SDM model was used to decompose the spillover effect. Generally, carbon emission efficiency in the three major urban agglomerations in the Yangtze River Economic Belt is low, with regional differences. FDI only has a positive impact on the carbon emissions of the Yangtze River Delta and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Furthermore, urbanization and population density have led to high levels of carbon emission in the region; however, the industrial structure and energy intensity factors have inhibited the improvement of regional carbon emission efficiency. Improving the quality of urbanization and trade structure is important to achieve energy conservation and emission reductions, which are pillars of sustainable economic development.

With China’s reform and opening up, the relationship between foreign direct investment and economic development gradually attracts attention. Professor Dunning first developed this theory, which describes the division of net outward direct investment into four distinct stages of a country’s economic development, and later increased it to five. The theory has been developed for 40 years, and whether it can survive and still play a guiding role in national development is the focus of people’s concern. Based on the previous studies of scholars, this paper conducts an empirical study on “individual” countries. Thus it is concluded that the theory in its net foreign direct investment and economic development of the important relationship of the original is still valid, but from the cross section, the measures to be improved, and the theory of the fifth stage of the development of a new understanding

This study treats the relationship of foreign direct investment (FDI) and economic development in Kosovo. FDI is considered as an important factor of economic growth of places in development, so rightly the question is asked: “Which is the impact of FDI inflow on economic growth of Kosovo?” This study shows the relationship in between FDI inflow and five macroeconomic indicators that have an important role in economic development of Kosovo such as: GDP, GDP per capita, GNI, Exports, and Balance Trade. The data were taken from World Bank and the statistic agency of Kosovo for 2005 to 2014 period. Pearson Correlation technique was used for empirical analysis that is realized with SPSS v. 21.0 statistical program, the results showed that there is a positive relationship in between FDI inflow and GDP growth, whereas there is a negative relationship of FDI inflow and trade balance of Kosovo. This study arguments what is necessary to be done in leading policies to attract foreign direct investment in Kosovo.
