The Effect Of Foreign Direct Investment On Poverty: Panel Regression Analysis For 40 Selected Underdeveloped And Developing Countries

Bu çalışmanın amacı, doğrudan yabancı sermaye yatırımlarının (DYSY) az gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde yoksulluk düzeyini nasıl etkilediğini tespit etmektir. Bu amaçla 40 az gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkenin %10’luk gelir dağılım dilimleri kullanılarak, DYSY’nin yoksulluk düzeyini nasıl etkilendiği panel regresyon yöntemiyle belirlenmiştir. Panel sonuçlarına göre DYSY ile elde edilen gelirden 1. ve 2. dilimin düşük, 9. ve 10. dilimin ise yüksek pay aldığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Ülkelerin ortalama gelir gruplarından nasıl farklılaştığını tespit etmek için yapılan ikinci panel regresyon sonuçlarına göre DYSY, ülkelerin bir kısmında üst, bir kısmında alt ve orta, diğer kalan kısımda ise orta gelir gruplarının gelirleri artarken, diğerlerininki düşürdüğü sonucu elde edilmiştir
