3. An Interesting Topic
(Foreign Direct Investment)

4. Example: Telenor Group invest in Bangladesh as
Grameenphone Ltd and started its operations on March
1997.

Council (GCC).
countries: Bahrain,

or UAE (ILO).

12. Economies of scale are the cost advantages that
enterprises obtain, by decreasing cost per unit of
output with increasing scale as fixed costs are spread
out over more units of output.
Example: The printer quotes a price of $5,000 for 500 books,
and $10,000 for 2,500 copies. While 500 books will cost you $10
per book, 2,500 will only cost you $4 per book.

13. Example: Experience Clothing Company Ltd. Of
UK invests in Bangladesh garments sector for
cheaper labor cost of production.
Knitting & other Textile producer of Italy A-One
(BD) Ltd. invests in Bangladesh Textile industries
for lower production cost.

14. 3
Marico Ltd. started its operation in Bangladesh
as Marico Bangladesh Ltd. in 2000 to produce
different types of oil using the cheaper raw
materials (coconut).

15. Maruti-Suzuki “A Japanese company” started its
operation in India in 1981 in that contract that the
Japanese owner control the business for a certain
period and then it sold its substantial portion of share
to the Indian owner as a result the Indian owner would
get the control. In 2007, the Indian owner got the
whole ownership of Suzuki company.

16. For Example: Wal-Mart has not only diversified
internationally but has spread its business into
many emerging markets as well. Because foreign
expansion diversifies Wal-Mart's sources of
revenue and thus reduces its reliance on the
U.S. economy

17. Between 1997-1998, A currency devaluation
occurred in Thailand and the Baht per dollar was
jumped 28 to 48. American businessman take
advantages from this opportunity and they bought
land and establish plant
there. When the Baht came
into the flexible situation
then the American Business
men commenced their
operation.

18.  Various inputs-including natural resources
 Technologies,
 Skilled personnel,
 Physical infrastructures and materials
 Market size and per capita income
 Size of GNP and projected rate of growth
 Access to regional and global markets
 Country specific customer preferences
 Structure of the markets

19. AN MNC can be motivated to FDI by analysing the
geographic factors including-
 The proximity of size to export markets
 Availability of local raw materials
 Availability of power, water and gas.
 Form and stability of Government
 attitude toward private and foreign investment by
Government
 customers and competition
 Degree of anti-foreign discrimination

20.  MNC companies always try to invest those
countries where tax advantages are available
 Tax rate trends
 Joint tax treaties with home country and others
 Availability of tariff protections

21. Foreign Direct Investments open a wide spectrum of
opportunities in the trading of goods and services both in terms of
import and export production.
 Integration into global economy
 Raising the Level of Investment
 Trade
Example: South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co Ltd has applied
for a license to invest $3 billion in building a second smartphone
factory in northern Vietnam. This project will gear the wheel of
economy in Vietnam both in terms of export and import of
production.

22.  Technology diffusion and knowledge transfer:
Developing countries by inviting FDI can introduce world-class
technology and technical expertise and processes to their
existing working process.
For example: In February 2011, Bangladesh reached an
agreement with Russia to build the 2,000 megawatt (MW)
Ruppur Nuclear Power Plant with two reactors, each of which
will generate 1,200 MW of power to meet electricity shortages.
 Increased competition
Overall development of a country is not possible without
creating employment for unemployed citizens. In this regard FDI
is working as a great helping hand of that particular host
country’s which cordially invites FDI.

23. Despite having lot of contributions in the economic
growth of a country, FDI is not free from limitations.
The Barriers of FDI are..
 Fall in domestic savings
 Less corporate tax
 Dualistic socio-economic structure
 Control over Political Decision

33. Independent variables:
Market Attractivness
Trade Openness
Environment Risk
Energy Price
Dependable Variable:
FDI

34. Market attractiveness, openness to trade and
energy prices have a significant and positive
association with FDI flows
High FDI flows are associated with low levels of
institutional risk, as measured by a country‘s
ratings for Bureaucracy Quality, Democratic
Accountability and Law and Order.
High levels of several Economic and Financial
risks are associated with high FDI flows like
Budget and Trade Balance

35. Countries that earn large reserves of foreign
currency from oil and gas revenues have found it
not desirable to open up their markets to foreign
investors
Countries that earn large reserves of foreign
currency from oil and gas revenues have found it
not desirable to open up their markets to foreign
investors
For Example: Generally high level of restrictions to
foreign ownership in OPEC countries compared to
non-OPEC

36. fdi = α0 + α1gro + α2inf + α3 logcost + α4 logtel + α5
op + α6 risk + α7 tax + ε
fdi = FDI net inflows as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product
(GDP)
inf = the rate of inflation measured by annual percentage change
of consumer prices
Gro = growth rate of per capita GDP
Logtel = telephone main lines per 1,000 people
Logcost = labour cost per worker
Op = the degree of openness

37. FDI inflows are positively associated with a
country‘s GDP per capita.
FDI inflows are positively associated with a
country‘s manufacturing exports
FDI inflows in are negatively associated with a
country‘s level of environmental risk
Political risk
Economic risk
Financial risk

38. Hymer (1976) explained the theories of FDI by
comparing the difference between foreign direct
investment and portfolio investment
 Hymer also analyzed that there are two reasons
why investors seek control
1. To make sure their investment is safe
2. To eliminate competition in foreign countries and
other countries.

39. Hymer stated that multinational companies are
motivated to invest in foreign countries due to
certain advantages .
For example: Getting factors of production at a
lower cost
Where market imperfection exists multinational
companies prefer to engage in direct investments

40. Raymond Vernon (1966) product life cycle theory has
analyzed four production stages beginning with invention
of new product.
Vernon tried to understand the shift of
international trade and international
investment.

41. • Stage 1- The enterprises are more focused on the
domestic market
• Stage 2- When the product matures, enterprises start
exporting to developed countries.
• Stage 3- When the product is standardized, the
enterprises would think less developed countries could
be good production place
• Stage 4- The home countries will be an importer since
the production decreases

42. The Uppsala model is a theory that explains how firms
gradually intensify their activities in foreign markets
• Step i- gain experience from the domestic market before
they move to foreign markets
• Step ii- start their foreign operations from culturally and/or
geographically close countries and move gradually to
culturally and geographically more distant countries
• Step iii start their foreign operations by using traditional
exports and gradually move to using more intensive and
demanding operation modes
