To answer whether capital mobility exacerbates or dampens the agglomerative tendency of footloose entrepreneurs, this paper incorporates a footloose-capital with a footloose-entrepreneur manufacturing industry based on a tractable analytical structure with two identical regions. The model shows...

Literature notes many factors as affecting capital flows, but the effects of these flows over the recipient economies and the overall effect over growth are highly debatable. This study claims that although capital flows may be required for the increase in output, other forces are causing this...

We analyze the quantitative impact of the non-tradable sector and structural change on international capital flows. We argue that the allocation puzzle (Gourinchas and Jeanne (2013)) reflects the difference in the magnitudes rather than the direction of net capital flows predicted by the one...

This paper examines the data on international capital flows to developing economies for the period 1970-2006. Besides the most aggregate group of all developing countries, developing world is categorised with respect to five regions (Developing Asia, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and...

The rate of capital flows into the emerging markets is alarming and has become a subject of debate in the literature. It is mostly believed that capital flows are beneficial to the economies of the developing countries as it engenders the efficient allocation of global resources thereby...

This study investigates the effects of various foreign capital flows, including repatriated profits on economic growth. I attempt to prove the hypothesis that developing countries tend to face slow economic growth because of their consistent encounters with more outbound capital flows in the...
