Foreign Direct Investment and the Macroeconomy in India

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextDescription: 45-59 ppSubject(s): In: MURTHY, E N APPLIED ECONOMICSSummary: The present study seeks to identify the determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flows into India, and also to understand the structural paths between FDI inflows and macroeconomic variables. While regression models are estimated for identifying the determinants, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) has been employed to trace the structural paths. The study, based on monthly data from August 1994 to May 2015, finds that exports, savings with commercial banks, money supply, exchange rate and inflation rate stand out as significant determinants of FDI flows into India after globalization. The study also identifies 19 significant paths between FDI inflows and different macroeconomic variables. Finally, the paper discusses some of the policy suggestions for better FDI flow into India.
