41、家傳遞到發(fā)展中國家的載體。FDI還可以刺激東道國的國內(nèi)投資，提高人力資本和制度的便利。國際貿(mào)易也一直是促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長的工具（羅默）。貿(mào)易使得具有比較優(yōu)勢的國家生產(chǎn)的產(chǎn)品和服務(wù)更便利的在國家間流通。盡管過去的研究證明FDI和對外貿(mào)易對經(jīng)濟(jì)增長有積極正相關(guān)的影響，但是這種影響的大小從國家整體來說取決于人力資本的水平、國內(nèi)投資、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)穩(wěn)定性和貿(mào)易政策。本文主要延續(xù)之前的討論：關(guān)于FDI和貿(mào)易對經(jīng)濟(jì)增長的作用，經(jīng)濟(jì)和制度的發(fā)展在刺激F

46、投資對發(fā)展中國家的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長有積極影響。我們預(yù)測這些變量的估計(jì)系數(shù)是正數(shù)，同樣預(yù)測FDI和貿(mào)易、FDI和國內(nèi)投資在促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長方面有積極正相關(guān)作用。</p><p>　　東道國的人力資本存量對吸收國外知識和實(shí)現(xiàn)潛在的FDI技術(shù)外溢至關(guān)重要。我們假定不僅FDI和GDP增長率存在積極正相關(guān)，而且在促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長方面FDI和人力資本存在正互相關(guān)系。由FDI帶來的先進(jìn)技術(shù)的運(yùn)用需要足夠的人力資本，即東道國的人力資本水平越高，

47、FDI對經(jīng)濟(jì)增長帶來的效應(yīng)越高。關(guān)于FDI和經(jīng)濟(jì)增長之間的關(guān)系有一個重要問題：FDI和國內(nèi)投資存在什么關(guān)系？一直以來，F(xiàn)DI被作為資本、技術(shù)、知識轉(zhuǎn)移到東道國的重要載體，因此帶來刺激經(jīng)濟(jì)快速增長的機(jī)會。然而，實(shí)際上，F(xiàn)DI刺激增長的作用取決于東道國吸收資本的能力，還存在FDI是否“擠出”國內(nèi)投資的問題。因此，這個問題變成了：FDI在多大程度上替代或補(bǔ)充國內(nèi)投資？在本文的實(shí)證模型中將FDI和國內(nèi)投資分開，又將FDI和國內(nèi)投資作為術(shù)語交匯（

53、關(guān)系包括在內(nèi)不僅在整體上使估計(jì)偏高，還使得我們采集到他們對經(jīng)濟(jì)增長的影響。在回歸2中，F(xiàn)DITRD的系數(shù)是正的而且統(tǒng)計(jì)上顯著，但是就FDI和貿(mào)易單獨(dú)來說，系數(shù)雖是正數(shù)但統(tǒng)計(jì)上不顯著?；貧w2還說明在促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長過程中FDI對國內(nèi)投資正相關(guān)。在置信水平90%下，國內(nèi)投資的估計(jì)系數(shù)是正數(shù)，統(tǒng)計(jì)上顯著。這表明東道國不僅受益于FDI本身還受益于FDI對貿(mào)易、國內(nèi)投資的正相關(guān)作用。FDI和人力資本之間雖正相關(guān)但在統(tǒng)計(jì)上不顯著?；貧w3為了控制宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)

54、政策和制度穩(wěn)定性加了另一些變量，這些變量對FDI、貿(mào)易甚至經(jīng)濟(jì)增長都有重要影響。最近的研究表明東道國的貨幣政策、財(cái)政政策、開放政策都對FDI影響很大。所以在回歸3中加入通</p><p>　　回歸3的結(jié)果表明FDI和貿(mào)易促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長，但是估計(jì)系數(shù)統(tǒng)計(jì)上不顯著。另一方面，人力資本和國內(nèi)投資的存貨，有正向的統(tǒng)計(jì)上顯著的相關(guān)系數(shù)。這一結(jié)果也表明FDI對貿(mào)易，人力資本和國內(nèi)投資有正向的關(guān)系。但是只有FDI對貿(mào)易的相互作用

55、是具有顯著的統(tǒng)計(jì)意義的。這意味著FDI和貿(mào)易促進(jìn)在發(fā)展中國家收入快速增長率中是互補(bǔ)的。這結(jié)果與FDI 流入帶來先進(jìn)技術(shù)并且與東道國貿(mào)易相互作用提高東道國的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長率的觀點(diǎn)是相一致的。</p><p>　　來自發(fā)展中國家的多樣化的實(shí)證檢驗(yàn)表明外商直接投資和貿(mào)易自己本身并不能保證經(jīng)濟(jì)增長。一國的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長也受該國的宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)政策和制度穩(wěn)定性的影響。良好的宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)政策和制度的穩(wěn)定性是使以FDI驅(qū)動的增長能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)的必要的先決

57、重要問題：FDI對東道國的國內(nèi)投資是擠入還是擠出。在回歸3中FDI對國內(nèi)投資的系數(shù)盡管是正的但不統(tǒng)計(jì)顯著，這不能退出在發(fā)展中國家國內(nèi)投資沒有被FDI擠出。為了深入實(shí)證分析，在控制貿(mào)易、人力資本、初期收入水平及表示各種宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)政策的變量后，我們運(yùn)用SUR方法估計(jì)了FDI對國內(nèi)投資的貢獻(xiàn)。表1表示了回歸分析1.4的結(jié)果。因?yàn)楣烙?jì)系數(shù)是正數(shù)、統(tǒng)計(jì)顯著說明FDI對國內(nèi)投資有正相關(guān)作用。正的相關(guān)性說明FDI刺激或擠入國內(nèi)投資，這個結(jié)論與Boren

58、sztein, Gregorio, 和Lee的研究相符。盡管TRD的估計(jì)系數(shù)統(tǒng)計(jì)上不顯著，但是貿(mào)易正作用于FDI再影響國內(nèi)投資。在置信水平90%下，F(xiàn)DITrade的估計(jì)系數(shù)是正數(shù)且有意義。</p><p><b>　　五、內(nèi)生性問題</b></p><p>　　FDI和增長率的相關(guān)系數(shù)由FDI的內(nèi)生決定性，這就是說FDI本身會受到在隨機(jī)控制增長率的過程中產(chǎn)生的創(chuàng)新（

59、Borensztein, Gregorio, and Lee）。例如，東道國的市場改革可以同時提高GDP增長率和FDI流入量。在這個例子中，外商直接投資和東道國相關(guān)性誤差項(xiàng)的存在會使得估計(jì)系數(shù)有偏差。內(nèi)生性問題可以用工具性變量來闡述。關(guān)于工具變量估計(jì)方法的其中一個重要問題是識別與FDI（或貿(mào)易）高度相關(guān)但是與誤差項(xiàng)無關(guān)的工具變量。本文在三步最小二乘法估計(jì)中用滯后的FDI值、貿(mào)易的滯后值、以對數(shù)形式表示的GDP總值作為工具變量。TSLS估
