GELIŞMEKTE OLAN EKONOMILERDE DOĞRUDAN YABANCI YATIRIM VE EKONOMIK GELIŞME ARASINDAKI NEDENSELLIK İLIŞKISI

Çalışmanın amacı gelişmekte olan ülkelerde doğrudan yabancı yatırım ve ekonomik büyüme arasında nedensellik ilişkisinin olup olmadığının belirlenmesidir. Bu kapsamda, 2016 yılında ekonomik büyümesi en yüksek olan 30 gelişmekte olan ülke incelenmektedir. Ayrıca, söz konusu ülkelerin 1991-2015 dönem aralığındaki yıllık verileri Dumitrescu Hurlin panel nedensellik analizi yardımıyla test edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre doğrudan yabancı yatırımların ekonomik büyümenin nedeni olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bundan dolayı, gelişmekte olan ülkelerin ekonomik gelişmelerini arttırabilmeleri için doğrudan yabancı yatırımları ülkelerine çekmeleri gerekmektedir. Öte yandan, ekonomik büyümenin de doğrudan yabancı yatırımların önemli bir nedeni olduğu görülmüştür. Dolayısıyla, gelişmekte olan ülkelerin ekonomik büyümeleri artmaları durumunda yabancı yatırımcıların bu ülkelerde yatırım yapmayı tercih edecekleri görülmektedir.
