Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth: The Importance of Institutions and Urbanization
Abstract
We use a panel data of 23 developing countries from 1976 through 1997 to analyze factors determining foreign direct investment. We also provide a statistical analysis of the relationship between economic growth and the inflow of FDI. In Section II we use time-series data to analyze the statistical relationship between the real gross domestic product (GDP) and real FDI for China and 23 developing countries. In Section III we use panel data of 23 developing countries to analyze factors determining FDI. In Section IV we analyze the disparity between the coastal and western region using China's provincial and municipal data. Conclusions are drawn in Section V.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
