Does FDI Promote Development? g g g Traditional Economic View: FDI plays two roles in developing countries: (1) fills the gap between local Savings and Investment requirements; (2) brings technology (inc. human capital): result is more economic growth. Thus, one objective of World Bank is “to promote private foreign investment” (IBRD Articles of Agreement). Economists also argued that, by operating at a bigger scale than domestic industry, FDI could help “lift up” an economy. Other benefits of FDI included provision of “public goods”: g Technology transfer to local suppliers g Financing of local suppliers (filling financial “gaps”) g Transfer of business & management skills directly to suppliers and indirectly as managers left for domestic firms
