Abstract
This paper investigates both long- and short-term relationships among foreign direct investment (FDI), domestic capital, and economic growth in Taiwan using the threshold error-correction approach. The results show a long-term equilibrium relationship among the three variables, which remains stable with asymmetric adjustments. Three short-term relationships are found: (1) promoting growth may stimulate domestic capital accumulation; (2) increasing FDI inflow may stimulate investment from domestic sources rather than crowd out the formation of capital; and (3) FDI inflows directly influence growth through stimulating domestic investment.
