Özet:

 

This study investigates whether there are productivity spillovers stemming from
 Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in developed and developing countries over the
 period 1984-2008. The study uses two productivity measures: labor and total
 factor productivity. The study employs panel cointegration and panel estimation
 methods. The panel cointegration test results indicate that there are long-run
 relations between FDI and productivity variables. The study’s main findings
 reveal that FDI triggers labor productivity in a significant way. However, in use of
 the total factor productivity variable, the effect of FDI on productivity is found too
 limited. Moreover, the magnitudes of the FDI effect on productivity differ
 remarkably across developed and developing countries. The findings also testify
 that the effects of FDI on productivity are higher in countries with high quality of
 labor force, which is measured by the labor quality index of Bonthuis (2010).
