Abstract: Foreign directinvestment (FDI) and foreign remittance have been the main sources of external capital inflows for many developing countries. FDI has been credited as the main driver of rapid economic growth in many Asian countries/regions in recent decades. However, this effect of FDI on long-run economic growth has not been observed in Latin American countries. Now, the question is whether FDI and an increase in foreign remittances in the past two decades have achieved expected positive results in terms of economic growth for emerging economies. This study uses a generalized method of moments (GMM) dynamic panel model to quantify the impacts of FDI and foreign remittances as sources of foreign capital for Asiaand Latin America. Our findings suggest that FDI and remittances perform differently in different regions in terms of their impacts on GDP growth. Countries that have specific policies (i.e., industrial policy, domestic content requirement, and export production targets) for FDI are likely to derive more significant benefits from FDI and remittances. Developing countries that are emergingor lagging should learn from the countries with positive outcomes and implement similar policies.

摘要:对外直接投资(FDI)和国外汇款一直是许多发展中国家外部资本流入的主要来源。过去几十年间,FDI始终被誉为许多亚洲国家/地区经济快速增长的主要驱动力。但FDI对拉美国家长期经济增长的作用却没人注意。目前的研究问题是在过去20年间FDI和国外汇款增长对于新兴经济体的经济增长是否起到了预期的积极效果。本文使用广义矩方法(GMM)动态面板模型来量化亚洲和拉美外资来源--FDI和国外汇款的影响,发现FDI和国外汇款对于不同地区GDP增长的影响差别巨大。拥有具体FDI政策(如产业政策、国内含量条件和出口生产目标)的国家更可能从FDI和汇款中得到更多重大利好。新兴或落后的发展中国家应该学习在此方面获得积极成效的国家,并实施类似政策。
