Foreign direct investment and competitiveness in the Romanian manufacturing
The objective of the analysis is the static (the database refers exclusively to year 1998) evaluation of the competitiveness of Romanian manufacturing, depending on the ownership-type. A ternary ownership-type structure is considered: the prevailing foreign-owned capital, the prevailing Romanian private capital and the prevailing state capital. The place, the share, the performance and the impa...
متن کاملEnvironmental Regulation, Foreign Direct Investment and Green Technological Progress—Evidence from Chinese Manufacturing Industries
This study examines the spillover effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on green technology progress rate (as measured by the green total factor productivity). The analysis utilizes two measures of FDI, labor-based FDI and capital-based FDI, and separately investigates four sets of industry classifications-high/low discharge regulation and high/low emission standard regulation. The results...
متن کاملOutward foreign direct investment and technical efficiency: Evidence from Taiwan's manufacturing firms
This paper uses firm-level panel data from Taiwan’s manufacturing industries from 1987 to 2000 to investigate the impact of outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) on the technical efficiency of the OFDI firms. Propensity score matching is used to construct an appropriate group of non-OFDI firms to compare with OFDI firms, and a metafrontier framework is subsequently used to calculate comparab...
متن کاملDownstream Foreign Direct Investment and U.s. Manufacturing Productivity
This paper examines how an industry’s productivity is changed by inward FDI occurring in affiliated downstream industries those buying from the focal industry. While controlling for FDI into the focal industry, I find that FDI in downstream industries has a significant negative influence on U.S. manufacturing industries in 1987-1991. Downstream FDI reduces productivity by lowering the demand fo...
متن کاملImpacts of foreign direct investment on efficiency in Swedish manufacturing
A number of studies have found that foreign direct investment (FDI) can have positive impacts on productivity. However, while FDI has clearly positive impacts on technology transfers, its effects on resource use within firms is less clear and, in principle, efficiency losses might offset some of the productivity gains associated with improved technologies. In this paper, we study the impacts of...
