Abstract: The Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has had important consequences in the Mexican economy, along the positive effects at the same time can be indicated the contributions in manufacturing, productivity, wages, employment and foreign trade; also some negative consequences have appeared, between the displacement of the internal savings and the deterioration in trade balance are one among the most important. Nevertheless, the general conclusion reflects the positive effects are enough to promote the hosting to new investments inthe national territory.Key words: Foreign Direct Investment, national development, Foreign Direct investment consequencesResumen: La inversión extranjera directa ha tenido importantes consecuencias en la economía mexicana, entre los efectos positivos de la misma se pueden señalar las contribuciones en la producción, productividad, salarios, empleo y el comercio exterior, pero también se han presentado algunas consecuencias negativas, entre las cuales el desplazamiento del ahorro interno y el deterioro en la balanza comercial son las más importantes. Sin embargo, el balancegeneral muestra que los efectos positivos son lo suficientemente satisfactorios para promover la llegada de nuevas inversiones al territorio nacional.Palabras clave: Inversión Extranjera Directa, desarrollo nacional, consecuencias de la Inversión Extranjera Directa

This aim of this work is to study the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and trade. FDI is a driving force for economic growth for host countries. The positive effects of FDI are seen in many aspects of the economy. However, the implications of FDI on foreign trade are questionable. Therefore, this study uses a Granger causality technique to test whether the relationship between FDI and foreign trade is complementary or substitutive. The findings of this study indicate that this relationship appears to be complementary, and FDI investment does cause an increase in trade flow in the countries that are taken into consideration. This research aims to make a comparison between the relations of FDI flows of three groups of countries from the European Union (EU)—Romania and Bulgaria, the Visegrád Group and the Euro area—for the period of 2005 to 2019. However, the results indicate that this link between the variables is not yet found for the three group of countries, and further research is required in this aspect. This leads to the conclusion that the FDI impact on foreign trade of the host country depends on the type of investment and absorptive capacity of the receiver, the economic development of host and home countries, and not every type of FDI leads to more trade.

Abstract The article contributes to the existing literature by examining the non-linear effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the development of the Arab Maghreb Union (AMU) countries during the period 1980-2019. These countries multiply their FDI attraction policies in order to enrich the national externalities offered to local businesses and benefit from some positive effects on their economy in terms of growth, technology, know-how, etc. Using Panel Smooth Transition Regression Model (PSTR) and Panel Smooth Transition Autoregressive Model (PSTAR) models, our findings reveal that the FDI shows opposite effects below and over the estimated threshold. This highlights the asymmetrical effect of unforeseen shocks on its volatility. Policy implications are also discussed.JEL Classification: C51; C53; F21; F21; F34; O16; O23; R11.

This paper investigates the relationship between China’s trade agreements (TAs) and partner countries’ upgrade in global value chains (GVCs). We focus on the experience of China and relate China’s TAs with one belt and one road (OBOR) initiative. A structural equation model (SEM) is applied on a dataset including 216 countries and regions to identify the direct and indirect effects of China’s TAs and OBOR initiative on its export, outwards foreign direct investment (OFDI) and partner economy’ GVCs upgrade over the period 2010–2015. We find that China’s TA partner countries are more likely to be included in the OBOR initiative than those non-TA partner countries. The positive effects of China’s TAs and OBOR initiative on China’s export, outwards foreign direct investment (OFDI) and partner countries’ upgrade in GVCs differ across country groups at the different locations of GVCs. Both vertical and horizontal spillover effects exist in China’s TAs. Therefore, the partner countries at low end and middle of GVCs might benefit more from TAs with China than those richer countries at the high end of GVCs.

The Impact

Purpose This paper aims to focus on testing the long-run relationship between fish production and two main variables, the foreign direct investment inflow and the marine trade balance in Oman, which is one of the Arab Gulf countries, during the period 1985-2016. Design/methodology/approach This study uses what known as the two-step Engle–Granger cointegration test to give evidence for the long-run relationship among the variables. Findings The results show that there are a negative long- and short-run relations between fish production and marine trade balance; moreover, any shocks will be corrected within two periods at the most.  Originality/value This study is one of few studies in using the econometric models to study the impact of fish production on marine trade balance and foreign direct investment.
