中国对外直接投资分析

改革开放以来,我国的对外投资事业取得了较大发展,但从整体上看,我国对外直接投资存在着投资总额少,企业规模小,集约化程度不高,对外投资行业和区位分布不合理,产业层次较低等问题.促进我国对外直接投资,应选择合理的区域扩大对外直接投资,进一步促进投资主体的多元化和投资行业的转型,加快建立现代企业制度,实施规模经营战略和品牌战略,提高企业自身的素质和创新能力,增加企业的核心竞争力.

在国家不断提升政策支持以及企业日益主动对外直接投资之时,学界仍对我国发展对外直接投资观点各异。本文以我国国情为依据,在评价不同观点的基础上提出:我国未来应大规模地发展对外直接投资,并在投资主体结构、投资地区结构、投资行业结构以及投资方式结构等方面作适当调整和优化。     

Expropriation and direct investment

The paper considers a model in which private foreign investors make direct long-lived capital investments in a small developing country that is subject to stochastic shocks to production. Depending upon the preferences of the host country, we find that expropriation can occur because of either 'desperation or ‘opportunism’. We show that under reasonable assumptions increased investment makes expropriation less likely to occur, and that the level of investment chosen by atomistic foreign investors may be non-optimal.     

Effects of direct foreign investment

There has been a considerable controversy in the Indian economic literature regarding the relative merits of direct foreign investment and official development assistance. No systematic study¹, however, is available on the effects of direct foreign investment in India. Therefore this article discusses this subject for the period 1951–66.     

外商直接投资对安徽经济发展作用的实证分析

本文利用统计数据,从实证角度分析了外商直接投资对安徽经济发展的影响。认为外商直接投资在促进安徽经济增长、增加固定资产投资和进出口贸易方面作出了重要贡献,但对产业结构调整和升级、地区经济协调发展等方面的促进作用并不明显。对今后如何吸引更多的外商直接投资及提高外商直接投资质量,进一步促使外商直接投资发挥更好的作用提出了建议。     

New tendencies in direct investment

German direct investment abroad last year showed a bigger increase than in any previous year. There are signs of certain interesting changes getting under way in regard to the aims as well as the structure of German investment activity alongside this growth. A striking feature is the increased interest shown by German firms in the countries of East Asia.     

Religion and foreign direct investment

This study examines the effect of religion on foreign direct investment (FDI). Using a large sample of directional FDI flows and religious data between 1985 and 2019, we calculate the religious distance between home and host countries and find that FDI flows are smaller for country pairs with greater religious distance. This finding remains intact after a host of variables affecting FDI are controlled. Moreover, the negative effect of religious differences is less pronounced if the host country has higher religious diversity or both countries have a bilateral investment treaty (BIT) in force. Finally, we construct a country-level measure for religiosity and find an asymmetric effect of religiosity on FDI flows. Overall, our study suggests that both religious differences and the level of religiosity play important roles in explaining international FDI flows. (JEL F21, F41, Z12)     

China's outward foreign direct investment

China's outward foreign direct investment (FDI) is steadily increasing. The United States is now a key target for China's outward FDI, and the response by the American public tends to fall at opposite ends of the spectrum: fever or fear. Chinese FDI in the United States faces challenges posed by its liability of foreignness in political, cultural, marketing, and technological aspects. Utilizing mini case studies, we herein examine the polarized responses to Chinese outward direct investment, its history, and the challenges faced by Chinese multinational corporations operating in or attempting to enter the U.S. market. Finally, strategy suggestions are proposed.     

Overseas direct investment may soar

China＇s overseas direct investment （ODI） may see a double-digit growth this year to around US$60 billion, on the back of government support and overseas expansion plans of domestic firms, officials from the Ministry of Commerce （MOFCOM） said on February 24.     

Patent protection and foreign direct investment

The importance of development and use of products embodying intellectual property rights has increased dramatically. The growing share of knowledge‐intensive products in worldwide trade, together with the increase in international technological competition, has magnified the importance of patents and other forms of intellectual property. The objective of this study is to examine the effect of patent protection on inward foreign direct investment (FDI). It also examines the relative importance of other variables such as market size, trade orientation, unemployment rates, and so on. The findings are supportive of the fact that the level of patent protection is a strong determinant of investment flows. A proper understanding of this relationship will help firms and governments devise appropriate intellectual property policy to encourage the growth and expansion of FDI. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
