The factors of growth of small family businesses: A robust estimation of the behavioral consistency in the panel data models
Benáček, Vladimír; Michalíková, Eva - 2011
The paper quantifies the role of factors associated with the growth (or decline) of micro and small businesses in European economies. The growth is related to employment and value added in enterprises as well as to ten institutional variables. We test the data for consistency of behavioural...

The causal relationship between information and communication technology and foreign direct investment
Gholami, Roghieh; Lee, San-Yong Tom; Heshmati, Almas - 2003
This paper investigates the simultaneous causal relationship between investments in information and communication technology (ICT) and foreign direct investment (FDI), with reference to its implications on economic growth. For the empirical analysis we use data from 23 major countries with...

The causal relationship between ICT and FDI
Gholami, Roghieh; Lee, Sang-Yong Tom; Heshmati, Almas - 2005
This paper investigates the simultaneous causal relationship between investments in information and communication technology (ICT) and flows of foreign direct investment (FDI), with reference to its implications on economic growth. For the empirical analysis we use data from 23 major countries...

The measurement error problem in dynamic panel data analysis: Modeling and GMM estimation
Biørn, Erik - 2012
The Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) is discussed for handling the joint occurrence of fixed effects and random … is assumed. Two specializations of GMM are considered: (i) using instruments (IVs) in levels for a differenced version of … sample biases and IV quality are illustrated by Monte Carlo simulations. Overall, with respect to bias and IV strength, GMM …

Exploiting Information from Singletons in Panel Data Analysis: A GMM Approach
Bruno, Randolph Luca; Magazzini, Laura; Stampini, Marco - 2019
We propose a novel procedure, built within a Generalized Method of Moments framework, which exploits unpaired observations (singletons) to increase the efficiency of longitudinal fixed effect estimates. The approach allows increasing estimation efficiency, while properly tackling the bias due to...

Do domestic firms benefit from geographic proximity with FDI? Evidence from the privatization of the Czech glass industry
Galeotti, Elisa - 2008
This paper analyzes the effects of geographical proximity and agglomeration of FDIs (foreign direct investments) on domestic firms in the privatized glass sector in the Czech Republic. The motivation for this research is based on the scant evidence in Central and Eastern Europe of the effects of...

Subsidy competition for FDI: Fierce or weak?
Havránek, Tomáš - 2009
The objective of this paper is to empirically assess the recently introduced models of subsidy competition based on the classical oligopoly theories, using both cross-sectional and panel data. Three crucial scenarios (including coordination, weak competition, and fierce competition) are tested...

Foreign direct investment inflow dynamics: The case of central and eastern Europe
Tsaurai, Kunofiwa - In: Comparative Economic Research. Central and Eastern Europe 26 (2023) 1, pp. 45-63
This study investigates the dynamics of foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into Central and Eastern European countries (CEECs) using panel data (1994-2020) analysis methods such as fixed effects, fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) and random effects. Specifically, the study...
