A great literature body studied the effect of foreign direct investment on economic
growth, and some studies investigated the effect of greenfield investments and cross-border
mergers & acquisitions on the drivers of economic development. However, as per the
researcher’s knowledge, no studies determined the differential effect of greenfield
investments and cross-border mergers and acquisitions as modes of foreign direct investment
on human development measured by Human Development Index in different timings.
The focus of this study is to determine which mode of foreign direct investment in
the MENA region has a greater impact on human development which is one of the key
drivers of economic development of the host country.
The researcher used the multiple regression model to determine whether greenfield
investments or cross-border mergers and acquisitions have a greater effect on human
development while controlling for various economic and political variables which are
political stability, rule of law, regulatory quality, control of corruption, inflation,
unemployment, and GDP growth. Lead variables of the dependent variable were formulated
to determine when the effect of these investments appears. In addition, various diagnostic
tests were conducted to provide evidence-based support for the findings.
Results showed that greenfield investments have a positive significant impact on the
human development of the host country that makes citizens reap these benefits after three
years at least from establishing this investment. Unlike cross-border mergers and
acquisitions which have a significantly negative effect on the human development of host
country citizens. Results recommend making facilities for green field investments to
encourage investors. Governments should create a favourable investment environment for
green field investments by reducing tax rates and easing bureaucratic processes.
The results can’t be generalized due to the exclusion of some countries due
unavailability of data for some countries in the MENA region
قامت هيئة أدبية كبيرة بدراسة أثر الاستثمار الأجنبي المباشر على الاقتصاد
النمو، وبحثت بعض الدراسات تأثير الاستثمارات الجديدة والعابرة للحدود
عمليات الاندماج والاستحواذ على محركات التنمية الاقتصادية. ومع ذلك، وفقا ل
حسب معرفة الباحث، لم تحدد أي دراسات التأثير التفاضلي للمجال الأخضر
الاستثمارات وعمليات الاندماج والاستحواذ عبر الحدود كأنماط للاستثمار الأجنبي المباشر
على التنمية البشرية مقاسة بمؤشر التنمية البشرية في أوقات مختلفة.
تركز هذه الدراسة على تحديد نمط الاستثمار الأجنبي المباشر
تتمتع منطقة الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا بتأثير أكبر على التنمية البشرية التي تعد واحدة من العوامل الرئيسية
محركات التنمية الاقتصادية في البلد المضيف.
