본 연구는 M&M(1958, 1961, 1963)의 기업가치평가모형에 입각하여 도출된 사건연구기법(value-based event study analysis ; 이하 VESA)을 이용해 해외직접투자(foreign direct investment ; 이하 FDI) 실시를 공시한 기업의 내재가치에 장기적으로 어떤 변화가 있는가를 검증한다. VESA방법론은 재무적 사건을 전후하여 기업의 내재가치에 변화가 있는가를 측정함으로써 재무적 사건이 내재가치에 장기적으로 영향을 미치는지 여부를 진단할 수 있는 기법이다. 2000년 이후 2004년까지 FDI 실시를 공시한 기업을 대상으로 2006년까지의 자료를 VESA기법에 적용한 실증분석 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 기업가치에 긍정적인 것으로 나타난 FDI의 장기효과는 생존전략 가설을 지지하지 않는 것으로 해석된다. FDI기업은 FDI 공시를 하지 않은 기업에 비해 내재가치가 더 충실한 것으로 나타났다. FDI기업에 대해 FDI 공시 이전과 이후를 비교해 보아도 여전히 기업가치가 더 충실해진 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 실물자산가치비중, 무형자산가치비중 및 신규투자가치비중이 장기적으로 크게 상승한 것으로 나타나 FDI는 내재가치를 증대시키는 활동으로 평가된다. 따라서 FDI의 내부화 가설 및 글로벌네트워크 가설을 지지하는 근거로 해석된다. 다만 FDI기업의 수익가치비중은 상승하지 않고 오히려 하락하는 것으로 나타난 점이 특기할 만하다. 이 수익가치비중의 하락만을 놓고 보면 FDI의 생존전략 가설이 지지되는 것처럼 보이지만, 전반적인 FDI의 장기효과는 기업가치에 긍정적인 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 업종별로 구분하여 분석하여 보아도, 업종에 상관없이 FDI기업의 내재가치는 비FDI기업과 비교하거나, FDI 실시 이전과 비교하더라도 장기적으로는 양(+)의 변화가 뚜렷이 나타났다. 따라서 업종과 상관없이 FDI는 생존전략 가설을 지지하지 않는 것으로 평가된다.

본 연구는 FDI 비율과 국내 기업의 혁신에 미치는 영향을 조직 학습 관점을 기반으로 실증 분석하였다. FDI 비율과 혁신에 대한 기존의 연구는 기업 혁신에 대한 분류가 모호하였기 때문에 상반된 연구결과들이 존재하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제품 혁신과 공정 혁신으로 나누어서 FDI 비율과 혁신간의 관계를 살펴봄으로써 이들 관계에 대한 이해를 보다 깊이 하고자 하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 FDI 비율이 국내 기업의 제품 공정 혁신에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 것으로 보고, 이들의 관계를 조직 혁신이 어떻게 매개하는 지를 밝히고자 하였다. 이를 위하여, STEPI에서 제공하고 있는 2010년 2012년 제조업 분야의 기업 데이터와 산업자원통상부의 FDI 데이터, 그리고 NICE 신용평가원(Kis Value)의 기업재무자료를 결합하여 실증 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 FDI 비율은 국내 기업의 제품 혁신에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 FDI 비율과 제품 혁신 간의 관계에 대하여 조직 혁신이 매개 효과를 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Purpose - Although models of innovation and exporting dominate recent studies of relations between innovation and access to foreign markets, relations between innovation and foreign direct investment (FDI) are less explored. This is especially true of relations between types of innovation and FDI. We fill that gap in the literature with empirical evidence that clarifies whether firms enter foreign markets through exports or FDI. Design/methodology - In order to assess the role of innovation in firms' international engagement strategies, we develop research hypotheses and present new empirical evidence on firms' choice of entry - exports and FDI - based on firm-level data. Findings - Our empirical results suggest that the impact of product innovation is more significant in transition from being a purely domestic firm to an exporter, while process innovation more significantly affect transition from being an exporter to a multinational enterprise. Our results also support 'self-selection into FDI' rather than 'learning-by-performing FDI' in the relationship between innovation and firms' overseas expansion. Originality/value - Recent literature on the relationship between innovation and firms' participation in foreign markets is dominated by models of innovation and export behavior. However, foreign direct investment by multinational enterprises may also be associated with firms' innovative activities. We first analyze how product and process innovations influence firms' choices to initiate exports or FDI.

Previous studies of location choice have focused on country-level data more than firm-level data and been more concerned with host countries' distinctive features than with firm heterogeneity. Therefore, they do not answer the question of who will go where in terms of location choice. To analyze the role of firm heterogeneity in determining location choice, we develop a theoretical model and analyze data on 3,644 Korean manufacturing multinationals operating in 87 countries between 1982 and 2006. The results of our conditional logit analysis indicate that not only host country characteristics but also firm heterogeneous factors such as productivity, labor intensity, and size have considerable influence on the decision of where to locate FDI.

This study examined the relationship between determinant factors of FDI and management performance, and tested moderating effects by competitive strategy. Questionnaires were gathered from 113 respondents, but only 92 valid copies were analyzed through SPSS WIN 18.0. The major empirical results are as follows: In hypothesis 1, Firm-Special Advantage impacted on Management Performance strongly, Internal Advantage impacted on Management Performance strongly, and Locational Advantage impacted on Management Performance strongly. In Hypothesis 2, the moderating effects by competitive strategy on the relationship between determinant factors of FDI and management performance were tested through multiple regression. The result of the moderating effects by competitive strategy were found to be insignificant. Implications of the finding as well as the limitations of this study are also discussed.

This paper aims to investigate how and to what extent FDI impacts the relative demand for skilled labor within firms in the case of developing countries. The analysis uses a sizeable micro-level dataset for Malaysian manufacturing industries using the System-GMM estimators to control the estimations' endogeneity problems. For this purpose, the study uses foreign equity share at the firm level to investigate foreign ownership effects at the firm level and the Horizontal FDI index by Smarzynska Javorcik (2004) to analyze FDI intra-industry linkages influence on the structure of labor demand for Malaysian domestic firms. Our findings indicate that foreign ownership increases the skilled demand within Malaysian manufacturing through the learning process, exclusively for small- and medium-sized firms (SMEs). Conversely for foreign-owned firms, changes in their skilled-labor share do not associate with changes in firm-level foreign equity share. We conclude that foreign ownership per se is not the major contributing factor for skill upgrading in Malaysian manufacturing firms. Furthermore, the competitive pressures caused by foreign firms' presence within the same industry - namely horizontal FDI - has a significant negative spillover effect on the level of skilled-labor share for domestic firms in the Malaysian manufacturing sector within periods of the understudies.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Granger Causality relations between Korean FDI and exports in Vietnam using time-series from 2005 to 2019. Using 15-industry semi-annual data of Korean FDI and exports toward Vietnam, the Granger Causality Tests were conducted. Var and VEC models were decided after unit-root and cointegration tests of variables. Findings and implications of the empirical tests are as follows. First, unexpectedly FDI did not Grange-cause exports only in one direction. In two industries, food & beverage and medical & chemical products, there were Granger causality relations in both directions. In eight industries including print, publishig, pulp & paper, exports did Grange-cause FDI. In the rest of five industries including automative & trailer industry, there were no Granger Causality relation in both directions. Second, we presume that the both direction-causality relations are desirable phenomenon for Korea. Because Korean FDI and exports are increasing at the same time. On the other hand, substitution relationship between Korea's exports and FDI occur in the industry that exports did Grange-cause FDI. Finally, more in-depth researches considering Vietnam's consumer demand and the oriented characteristics of FDI are needed. The results of this research will contribute to understand structural patterns of FDI and exports in Vietnam and to make investment and export decisions.

본 연구는 외국인직접투자가 투자 대상 기업 및 동일 산업 내 다른 국내기업들의 생산성에 미치는 효과를 분위회귀(quantile regression)모형으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 제조업에서는 외국인직접투자가 투자 대상 기업에 통계적으로 유의한 양(+)의 생산성 효과를 가지며, 특히 생산성이 높은 기업군일수록 생산성 향상효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한 외국인직접투자는 동일 산업에 속한 국내기업들 중 생산성이 낮은 기업군에는 통계적으로 유의한 양(+)의 생산성 파급효과를 갖는 반면, 생산성이 높은 기업군에는 통계적으로 유의하거나 유의하지 않은 음(-)의 파급효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 서비스업에서는 외국인직접투자 대상 기업이나 동일산업 내 국내기업들 모두 통계적으로 유의한 생산성 효과가 명확히 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 분석 결과는 외국인직접투자가 국내기업의 생산성에 미치는 효과가 기업의 생산성 수준에 따라 이질적(heterogeneous)이며, 통상적인 평균회귀(mean regression)모형 외에 분위회귀모형을 활용해 외국인직접투자가 생산성 분포에 미치는 효과(distributional effects)를 분석할 필요가 있음을 나타낸다. 또한 외국인직접투자의 생산성 향상효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 단순한 투자유치를 넘어 기업의 생산성 수준에 따른 외국인직접투자의 이질적 효과를 감안한 보완적 전략이 필요함을 시사한다.

The aim of this study is to empirically examine fundamental factors that drive FDI to a particular location. This study further explores operating conditions of Korean firms in Myanmar. A survey methodology and then a regression analysis are employed. The study finds that the factors such as transportation, production factor, market, and cost play an important role for the location of FDI. However, the Korean investment in Myanmar decreases from 2013. The decrease of Korean investment implies that investing in Myanmar has not been profitable. The empirical study finds a complicated pattern of FDI. Large Korean firms are located far from the consumer market, thus, bear an increased transport cost to reach the consumer market. They are rather located in a place where they can access to a transport means and raw materials with low cost to export final products. They place FDI into a host country to serve as a production platform for exports to neighboring countries.
