This study investigates the impact of inward foreign direct investment (FDI) on aggregate imports in Pakistan using the annual time series data for the period 1981 to 2007. The cointegration results suggest that there exists a unique significant positive long-run equilibrium relationship between...

This paper investigates the important question of what relationship, if any, exists between economic infrastructure, gross fixed capital formation, and FDI inflows to Hungary during the 1995-2012 period. Although this question has great significance from an economic policy standpoint, there has...
