Analisis Dampak Keterbukaan Perdagangan Internasional Terhadap Ketimpangan Pendapatan dalam Perspektif Ekonomi Islam pada 34 Provinsi di Indonesia Tahun 2018-2022

This research aims to analyze the impact of international trade openness on income inequality. The impact of international trade openness is to increase foreign direct investment entering a country. The higher the level of foreign direct investment (FDI), the greater the possibility of income inequality. This can be caused by the uneven trickling down effect of foreign investment. High unemployment rates can result in lower incomes for the remaining workers, which in turn increases income inequality. Then, high inflation can cause a decrease in people's purchasing power, which in turn can increase income inequality. The research method used is a quantitative method. The type of data used is secondary data taken from the official website of the Indonesian Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The data analysis method used in this research is panel data analysis, regression model selection, classical assumption testing, and hypothesis testing using a data analysis tool, namely E-views version 10. The results of this research show that Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has a positive effect and significant to income inequality, the Open Unemployment Rate (TPT) has no effect on income inequality, and Inflation has a negative and significant effect on income inequality

Investigation into Spatial and Temporal Differences in Carbon Emissions and Driving Factors in the Pearl River Delta: The Perspective of Urbanization

Urbanization is a significant indicator of city progress, and as urbanization advances, carbon emissions exhibit an increasing trend that must not be disregarded. Therefore, it is imperative to thoroughly examine the spatial and temporal variations as well as the factors influencing carbon emissions during the urbanization process. In this paper, based on the 2009–2019 PRD region, carbon emissions are measured from energy consumption, industrial production process, solid waste, and wastewater according to the IPCC coefficients, and spatial and spatial differences in carbon emissions are combined with spatial analysis and the drivers analyzed using the gray correlation scale. The results show that: (1) The total carbon emissions in the PRD region have been increasing over the study period, and the distribution of total carbon emissions shows a pattern of “strong in the east and weak in the west”, with energy consumption accounting for the highest proportion of carbon emissions. (2) The global Moran Index of carbon emissions in the PRD has been decreasing, with low and low clustering concentrated in Shaoguan and Zhaoqing, high and high clustering concentrated in Dongguan and Shenzhen, and low and high clustering concentrated in Shenzhen and Guangzhou, with cold spots mainly concentrated in Zhaoqing and hot spots mainly distributed in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Dongguan. (3) The degree of economic growth has a substantial influence on carbon emissions in the PRD cities, and the influence of technical advancement has intensified. Guangzhou City is propelled by low-carbon regulations that have a more equitable influence on all elements. Zhuhai City has a more significant influence on energy intensity, while Foshan City has a more noticeable decrease in the effect of foreign investment. To address the issue of carbon emissions, the government should establish appropriate rules to regulate carbon emissions in areas with high emissions, foster collaborative efforts across cities, and encourage the growth of environmentally friendly enterprises.

Has the Free Trade Zone Construction Promoted the Upgrading of the City’s Industrial Structure?

Based on the panel data of 250 prefecture-level cities from 2006 to 2019, we adopted the idea and method of a “quasi-natural experiment” with difference-in-difference to assess the industrial-structure-upgrading effect of FTZ construction, analyze the factors and mechanisms influencing the effect, and further compare and analyze the regional heterogeneity and differences in spatial and temporal characteristics. We also propose policy recommendations to promote the orderly development of the FTZ. Empirical results show that, (i) compared with non-FTZ cities, the level of rationalization for industrial structures in FTZ cities increased by 9.69%, and the level of the advanced industrial structures increased by 7.01%. (ii) The innovation effect and the foreign investment effect enhance the effect of FTZ policy on industrial structure upgrading. (iii) Heterogeneity analysis found that the eastern and central FTZ have more significant roles in promoting industrial structure upgrading. (iv) Further spatial and temporal comparison analysis found that the promotion effect of the FTZ on industrial upgrading is temporally sustainable but with a certain lag. From the spatial perspective, the FTZ inhibits the level of advanced industrial structure in neighboring cities.

The effect of foreign investment on Asian coal power plants

Asia has built 90% of new coal-fired capacity worldwide in the past 20 years, attracting billions of dollars of foreign investment. This paper explores how such foreign investment has affected the environmental performance of a set of 2108 Asian coal power plants. The findings suggest that foreign-funded power plants are on average 3.4% cleaner in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions intensity than their domestically funded counterparts, with an effect that varies by foreign country, from 8.9% cleaner (South Korea) to 2.0% dirtier (Russia). Better technology (heat rate) explains 96% of this improved environmental performance, while cleaner coal (emission factor) explains the remaining 4%. The environmental performance of foreign-funded coal power plants has only a negligible spillover effect on the performance of domestically funded plants. Although foreign investment slightly reduces CO2 emissions per unit of electricity, overall, it increases global reliance on coal, thus undermining global ambitions to curb greenhouse gases.

Dynamic environmental regulation threshold effect of technical progress on green total factor energy efficiency: evidence from China.

Sustainability is a strategic choice for the transition to a green economy in China. Improving green total factor energy efficiency (GTFEE) is the key to realizing the dual targets of energy-saving and economic growth. This paper empirically tests the nonlinear effects of environmental regulation on technical innovation affecting GTFEE by using panel data of 271 prefecture-level cities in China from 2004 to 2019. Meanwhile, a system GMM approach is used to verify the channels through which technical innovation affects GTFEE. Finally, the spatial and temporal characteristics of technical innovation affecting GTFEE are analyzed from the perspective of environmental regulation. The empirical results are as follows: (1) Technical innovation can significantly improve GTFEE. However, this improvement effect is a threshold characteristic; when environmental regulation is above the threshold value, technical innovation has a greater improvement effect on GTFEE. (2) Besides directly influencing GTFEE, technical innovation can also indirectly influence GTFEE via channels such as economic growth effect, industrial structure upgrading effect, and foreign investment effect. Meanwhile, indirect influence channels also show environmental regulation heterogeneity. (3) The number of cities crossing the threshold of environmental regulation in China increases year by year, which helps technical innovation play a role in improving GTFEE. However, there are still a small number of cities that do not cross the threshold during the sample period, which should attract the attention of local governments.

The Effect of Foreign Investment on Domestic Investment In Indonesia

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on domestic investment (DI) in Indonesia. The data analysis method in this research was carried out using vector error correction model. Meanwhile, it used secondary data obtained from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and Ministry of Investment (BKPM). This research period was carried out from 2010-2018. The results of this study indicated that in the long run there was a cointegration relationship between variables, FDI had a significant positive effect on DI in the long and short-term, GDP had a significant negative effect on DI in the long-term. In short-term, it had a negative effect and no significant contribution, structural break down had a positive effect and was not significant in the short-term.

Effects of Foreign Investment on Domestic Private Equity

Using a sample of 23 OECD countries, studied over a period of 20 years (1995–2015), we find that direct foreign investment has a spillover effect on private equity (PE) in that it supports the development of the domestic PE industry. We also show how contextual variables influence the investment process. Our results suggest that a positive effect on domestic PE dynamics can be seen if the number of foreign PE deals is measured, while calculations using the value of foreign PE investments show mixed results. The positive effect of foreign investment on domestic PE activity persists where low gross capital formation is adopted and in low value-added environments. Foreign PE investment increases overseas activity in the host country’s domestic PE industry. These effects are proportional to the size of the foreign fund. Foreign PE activity related to firms in the early stages of development encourage domestic PE industry activity in the same kind of firms.

Aggregate and heterogeneous sectoral growth effects of foreign direct investment in Egypt

AbstractThis paper investigates the sectoral impacts of foreign direct investment (FDI) on growth in Egypt between 1990 and 2007 based on a unique data set. It highlights the aggregation bias inherent in many empirical studies that focus solely on the economy‐wide effects of foreign investment. Aggregate inflows of FDI are shown to be detrimental to the country’s economic growth performance, possibly as a result of the “crowding‐out” of more productive domestic investment. Some positive sector‐specific effects, however, are found for investment in manufacturing and petroleum, which also has beneficial spillovers into other sectors. FDI in the finance and retail and telecommunications and information technology sectors are found to generate significantly negative growth effects, while those in services and tourism are negative but generally insignificant. These findings suggest that “market‐seeking” FDI in certain sectors has conspicuous “crowding‐out” effects, possibly owing to insufficient domestic absorptive capacity. The results of this study further demonstrate the importance of potential sectoral heterogeneity of own sector and inter‐sectoral economic growth effects of FDI. It therefore highlights the critical need for policymakers to take a more disaggregated sectoral‐level evaluation of the benefits of foreign investment, particularly in developing economies such as Egypt.

Business history special issue on foreign investment and the development of entrepreneurial and managerial capabilities in host economies

This special issue is the result of a workshop on the effects of foreign direct investment on the development of entrepreneurial and managerial capabilities in host economies. Our aim was, rather than to look at the more generic competencies of firms, to call attention to the knowledge, skills and abilities embodied in individuals and, particularly, in managerial and technical professionals working for subsidiaries of multinationals or for local companies with foreign investors. We specifically addressed the question of to what extent these professionals’ capabilities could have been born, developed or shaped by working for, or alongside, foreign firms. This may explain in part the rapid ascension of the so-called dragon or new multinationals from late industrializing and emerging economies. Foreign investment is considered to have stimulated economic modernization and industrial progress in a Gerschenkronian way, thus advancing catching-up with traditional economic leaders. Our approach to the effects of foreign investment on host markets, therefore, would contribute not only providing insight into corporate internationalization strategies and international human resource management, but also into how industrial progress and economic modernization spread to new areas and regions. We aim to address these two traditional research questions of management and economic scholarship from a microeconomic and hence business-history-oriented perspective, as well as beyond these to professionals and education systems, through the analysis of knowledge transfer at country, industry and firm level.

ANALYSIS OF THE PREMIUM TREND IN THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY IN KOSOVO 2013 - 2017

Kosovo continues to be one of the countries with the most undeveloped economy in the region and with negative measuring indicators of the economic development, high unemployment, a deep negative commercial balance, and non-favorable macro economical politics to guarantee a faster development trend, although it has marked a positive economical increase in recent years but too insufficient to weaken poverty and decrease the unemployment rate. The insurance sector participates with only 3% in the Kosovo financial sector, except for its very symbolic participation, this industry is characterized by a very low degree of development and the main motive is to analyze the very slow trend of industry development, to identify the causes and factors that have influenced this segment to be so underdeveloped and of a very symbolic weight in the Kosovo economy.The purpose of this paper is to explain the trend of insurance premiums on insurance industry in Kosovo, effect of foreign investments in this sector, also the positive implications in the competition in this market. The purpose of a study can be classified into two major categories; descriptive and explanatory.For our case study, I have collected primary data by conducting closed interviews. I have interviewed 10 senior risk underwriter managers from all companies present in the insurance industry in Kosovo. Methodology and data collection for our research paper it is based on case study method, analyzing trend of premiums through case study, we have collected also secondary data or archival records from Central Bank Kosovo from specific documents: official yearly annual reports, annual financial stability reports. This is based on the reasoning that this data archive consists of official information collected, processed and published by the central bank of Kosovo as the oversight body of the financial system in Kosovo. Other source of secondary data used it is annual reports published on websites of the Insurance Companies.In this paper I focused specifically on inquiring about the level of development of the insurance industry in Kosovo. I have also specifically explored and presented strategic orientation and detailed activities through which the premium structure in Kosovo could be changed in favor of voluntary insurance. Also another very important goal is the susceptibility of the relevant decision maker factors and the whole readers that the results of this analysis relevant findings to influence in order to sensitize the decision maker and readers for the situation and for the need of focus that this segment should be developed because it is one of the most important segments in the economies of developed countries or for an undeveloped country and economy that aims a strategic objective for a faster development.

Unfolding China’s state-owned corporate empires and mitigating agency hazards: Effects of foreign investments and innovativeness

Integrating agency and institutional perspectives, we describe how China’s socio-political institutions create state-owned corporate empires with unique agency conflicts. We develop a framework demonstrating how economically unjustified firm expansion, i.e. empire building, mediates the relationship between state ownership and performance. We uncover the instrument in empire building and appropriate corporate governance and strategic management remedies. An empirical study on 29,638 Chinese firms evidences that (1) increased state ownership drives higher management expenses and lower firm profitability though empire building; (2) long-term debt is used to finance empire building; and (3) foreign capital investments and innovativeness can mitigate these agency conflicts.

Netflix: Canadian (Dis)Content. Competing Sovereignties and the Cultural Politics of Cultural Policy

ABSTRACTNetflix has gained significant attention in Canada because it exemplifies the challenge posed by digital technology to Canada’s long-standing cultural policies. It is increasingly evident that such policies are limited in their ability to encourage foreign investment while safeguarding Canadian cultural expression. Indeed, the policies proposed thus far have generated “Canadian discontent” across the political spectrum, notwithstanding their promised benefits. This article uses Netflix to explore the cultural politics of cultural policy: the historical and political underpinnings that drive ongoing discussions about state intervention in culture. These politics include the debates about the effect of foreign investment on Canadian cultural sovereignty, and the ideological tensions within the notion of sovereignty itself, namely those between state and consumer and between center and periphery. Using a historiographical approach, this article investigates the controversy surrounding recent government responses to the disruptive force of foreign digital multinationals, such as Netflix.

Study on the Effect of Foreign Investment on Anhuis Industrial Structure Optimization

With the deepening implementation of the strategy of the rise of central China, the degree of opening up of Anhui Province has increased year by year. It is of great significance to study the impact of foreign direct investment in the optimization of industrial structure in Anhui Province and how to achieve efficient economic development during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. Using the method of empirical analysis, the time series data from 1997 to 2014 reflects the characteristics of the actual utilization of foreign direct investment and industrial restructuring in Anhui Province. There are significant differences in the contribution of the three industries to the added value of each industry. From the short-term effect, the actual use of foreign direct investment in the secondary industry contributes the most to its added value. From the long-term effect, the actual use of foreign direct investment in the second industry contributes the most to the current added value. Foreign direct investment has promoted the industrial structure of Anhui Province to a certain extent, but it has aggravated the imbalance of the industrial structure at the same time.

The Effect of Foreign Investment on the Economic Growth With a Special Focus on Kosovo

The main aim of this scientific work is to show in concrete way the role and impact of foreign direct investment on the economic development, where Kosovo will be analyzed with a special focus. Through this study, we will investigate the correlation between Foreign Direct Investment and the Economic Growth in Kosovo during the time spam from 2005-2016. To test the data and results, we will use different econometric models and methods in order that the results have a higher scientific significance, such as the Narrative Method, Comparative Method, as well as the Econometric Method. Testing of the data and the building of the econometric model will be realized by using the econometric method, concretely by using the method of Pooled OLS and the analysis of Correlation. The source of the data will be quite diversified and multifarious, based on data from the Central Bank of Kosovo, the Agency of Statistics, the International Monetary Fund, as well as the Macroeconomics Indicators of The World Bank. The main finding of this study is the existence of the positive relation between the Foreign Investment and the Economic Growth, more concretely, according to the results from the Econometric Model, we see that if the Foreign Direct Investment in Kosovo grows by 1%, it will affect positively the Economic Growth by (67.27%). Some of the limits of this study are that other countries of the West Balkans are not included, as other explanatory variables. Therefore, in future it must be supported by other specific studies that treat the connection between the Economic Growth and Foreign Investment. The data and results from this research could be used by different users and parties.
