Distance and Foreign Direct Investment

摘要本文从理论和实证两个方面研究距离与国际直接投资之间的关系。本文建立了一个包含中间产品、工资差距、距离等因素的混合型国际直接投资模型,该模型表明,在其他条件相同的前提下,两国间的距离越远,则两国间的国际直接投资量越少。在本文的国际直接投资模型中,国际直接投资既是为了减少贸易成本,也是为了利用其他国家工资低的优势,包含了水平型国际直接投资的动机和垂直型国际直接投资的动机,这与现实中国际直接投资的发展趋势一致。利用美国2008年国际直接投资的数据对理论模型的结论进行了实证检验,结果表明,在控制了其他影响因素的前提下,国际直接投资与距离之间的负向关系确实存在。 This paper studies the relationship between distance and FDI theoretically and empirically.A theoretical FDI model which includes intermediate goods,wage disparity and distance is constructed in this paper.The model indicates that the volume of FDI between two countries is negatively related with the distance between these two countries.In this model,the purpose of FDI is to decrease trade cost as well as to take advantage of lower wage in other countries,which is verified by recent empirical research.The data of U.S.foreign direct investment in 2008 is used for empirical study.The empirical study confirms this proposition.
