A three factor, four region and 15 sector computable general equilibrium (CGE) model is used to study the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) accruing to China. We focus on the sectors of Electronics, Machinery and Textiles which account for 55.4% and 40% of Chinese overall exports and...

We analyze the impacts of a sharp fall Japanese of foreign direct investment (FDI) to China that occurred after the worldwide financial crisis in 2009. The study is conducted by means of a three-region (Japan, China, and the rest of the world (ROW)) recursive dynamic computable general...

The arrival of multinationals (MNEs) in transition economies brings about a process of restructuring across their different industries. This process is illustrated by data on the rapid entry of MNEs into the motor vehicles sector of the Czech Republic, which occurred before the recent crisis....

This paper offers a new perspective regarding the effects on a host economy of the entry of multinational enterprises (MNEs). We use a computable general equilibrium (CGE) approach, through a version of the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model extended to incorporate MNEs. The analysis is...

This paper analyzes several effects of FDI accruing to Textiles, Chemicals, Electronics and Machinery in China. Though the four sectors have contrasting production technologies and vary largely in trade patterns, the related Chinese exports and imports still follow a general trend: East Asia and...

This paper uses a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to simulate the FDI inflows in the Electronics sector in China. Our aim is to capture how the causation chain works through production networks and the triangular trade pattern. China is a production base and export center for...

Most studies on Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) focus on the impact of their expansion through inward or outward foreign direct investment (FDI) flows. However, divestments are quite common among the operations of MNEs. In order to derive their effects, we build a computable general equilibrium...

This article provides an up-to-date, comprehensive synthesis and evaluation of the existing literatura on multinational firms and foreign direct investment. Unlike most previous reviews it combines severalinsights showing their inconsistencies and complementarities. Through a chronological...
