    Impact of regional trade agreements of FDI flows
    (İstanbul Ticaret Üniversitesi, 2017) Moiz, Muhammad; Demir, Ahmet Oğuz
    Recent proliferation of regional trade agreements has led to both a higher amount of trade and foreign direct investment flows. A number of studies have analyzed the impact of RTAs on the FDI and show that RTAs do lead to higher FDI flows for member countries. However, most of these studies have been conducted on North countries given that the data is readily available for them. A small number of studies have also focused on South countries yet there is a need for more studies. As a part of this study, three RTAs (ASEAN, MERCOSUR, and SACU) have been selected to analyze their impact on FDI flows to emerging economies of Brazil, China, India, and South Africa. The dataset includes 4 host countries and 71 source countries for a 12 year period from 2001 to 2012, totaling 852 observations. The gravity model is used to analyze the data for this study. The results show that ASEAN has a FDI diversion effect for our host countries whereas MERCOSUR and SACU lead to 0.24% and 0.22% higher FDI respectively given that only the host country is a member of the RTA. GDP of home and host countries are seen to have a significant positive impact on the FDI flows. It is concluded that South-South RTAs do not necessarily increase the attractiveness of host countries for FDI.

    Outward foreign direct investment in emerging economies: A case of Turkey
    (IGI Global, 2017) Demir, Oğuz; Moiz, Muhammad
    Outward Foreign Direct Investment (OFDI) has been utilized by developed economies to enter developing markets for competitive advantages. However, recent boom in OFDI from emerging economies has prompted the question as to why these economies are investing abroad? A modest amount of literature exists regarding China and India, however, Turkey being an emerging economy has been largely untapped when it comes to determinants of OFDI. This study uses the Global Competitiveness Index (GCI) to find host and home country factors which have led to OFDI from Turkey to their top 10 investment destinations for the past 10 years. The host country factors found to be significantly correlated with Turkish OFDI are innovation (Netherlands and Russia), technological readiness (Russia and UK), labor market efficiency (Netherlands), infrastructure (Netherlands), domestic market size (Germany), and exports (UK). The home factors found to be significantly correlated with Turkish OFDI are infrastructure and domestic competition. © 2017 by IGI Global.
