Exchange Rate Volatility and the Timing of Foreign Direct Investment: Market-seeking versus Export-substituting
This paper examines the impact of exchange rate uncertainty on the timing of foreign direct investment (FDI) with heterogeneous investing motives. We first extend DixitPindyck’s real options model to show that while an increase in exchange rate volatility tends to delay the FDI activity of a market-seeking firm, it might accelerate the FDI activity of an export-substituting firm if the firm’s d...
متن کاملForeign Direct Investment: Flows, Volatility and Growth in Developing Countries
This paper contributes to the literature on FDI and economic growth. We deviate from previous studies by introducing measures of the volatility of FDI inflows. As introduced into the model, these are predicted to have a negative effect on growth. We estimate the standard model using cross-section, panel data and instrumental variable techniques. Whilst all results are not entirely robust, there...

This study prov...
