Determinants of Exports and Foreign Direct Investment in a Small Open Economy
I find some reasons to prefer the gravity model when estimating foreign direct investment, I also find support for the intuition behind the Knowledge-Capital model, i.e. that endowments matter. In particular, I find that, rather than merely using knowledge endowment proxies, employing proxies for en...

I find some reasons to prefer the gravity model when estimating foreign direct investment, I also find support for the intuition behind the Knowledge-Capital model, i.e. that endowments matter. In particular, I find that, rather than merely using knowledge endowment proxies, employing proxies for endowments crucial to the Iceland economy can be useful both in terms of describing levels of investment and the fixed costs typical in foreign direct investment models. Niðurstöður verksins eru þær helstar að fjarlægð Íslands frá öðrum löndum hamli útflutningi vöru, þjónustu og fjármagns frá Íslandi og dragi þannig úr viðskiptum þess við önnur lönd. Athuganir gefa til kynna að útflutningur ráðast af stærð viðskiptalandanna og kaupmætti íbúa þeirra, frekar en markaðsaðstæðum á Íslandi. Einnig kemur fram að útflutningur einstakra sjávarafurða er fremur háður fjarlægðarhindrunum en efnahagsumhverfi. |
