"Determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)" published on by Oxford University Press.

This article presents an overview of retail trade in India in the wake of the country's new policy that will allow foreign capital in multi-band retailing. It discusses various potential benefits and costs of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the retail sector, particularly in terms of its effects on traditional retailers, employment, consumers, farmers, and local manufacturers. It argues that given somewhat slower growth projection for the Indian economy during the next decade, various structural issues including inadequate infrastructure and a lack of affordable real estate, and the prevalent structure of the agricultural markets, it is unlikely that all the potential benefits and costs will be realised to their fullest extent, at least in the foreseeable future. The economic dynamics and the political process will play an important role in determining the outcomes of this move to allow FDI in the retail sector and will ultimately determine the effects on various stakeholders.

Over the past decade, foreign direct investment (FDI) around the world has nearly tripled, and with this surge have come dramatic shifts in FDI flows. In Foreign Direct Investment, distinguished economists look at changes in FDI, including historical trends, specific country experiences, developments in the semiconductor industry, and variations in international mergers and acquisitions. Chapters cover such topics as theoretical accounts of FDI patterns, the growth of multinational enterprises, and the FDI experiences of Japan, the United States, and selected developing countries. This volume will interest economists, government officials, and business people concerned with FDI today.

Business, politics, social and economic policies on the last decades brought us to inevitability of change. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) plays a key role on this change as it is a tool for International Business Management on a global world. The relation between FDI and sustainability on the Sub-Saharan countries with lower income has not yet been sufficiently studied so our proposal is to bring a few more conclusions to the overall discussion as we intend to understand if FDI effectively affects the so-called Triple Bottom Line (TBL) pillars of sustainability. Also, we intend to analyse the relation between these pillars themselves as well with another variable, Population Growth. With data obtained from the World Bank (WB), regarding 20 countries, gathered between 2010 to 2018, we analysed 34 indicators composing 11 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG´s). After, we group them by the TBL pillars and evaluate the influence of FDI inflows on their scores using panel data models. Also, the influence between the pillars themselves and variable Population Growth was studied. Our results show a strong, positive correlation between the TBL pillars. FDI has no significant influence on the TBL pillars, and population growth positively affects the Social pillar, affecting negatively the Environmental pillar.
