Book Description
This paper analyzes the impact of exchange rate levels and exchange rate uncertainty on U.S. foreign direct investment into Latin America. By decomposing exchange rate uncertainty into temporary (short-run) and permanent (long-run) components, we further explore whether the nature of uncertainty matters. Our empirical findings support the view that exchange rate uncertainty has a negative impact on U.S. investment flows into Latin America. Moreover, it is the persistency in uncertainty rather than transitory uncertainty that mostly deters foreign investment. In contrast, investors do not appear to be affected by discrete movements in exchange rate levels.

Uncertainty, Flexible Exchange Rates, and Agglomeration

Book Description
This paper shows that exchange rate variability promotes agglomeration of economic activity. Under flexible rates, firms located in large markets have lower variability of sales, reinforcing concentration of firms there. Empirical evidence on OECD countries demonstrates (1) that the negative effect of country size on variability of industrial production is stronger after the 1973 collapse of fixed rates and (2) for small (large) countries, exchange rates variability has a long-run negative (positive) effect on net inward FDI flows. Two implications arise: creating a currency area fosters agglomeration in the area, and a two-stage EMU may exacerbate the current uneven regional development.

Book Description
The determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) have been widely examined. Previous studies have shown that exchange rates play a vital role in the analysis and are a major determinant in the flow of FDI. Most research has focused on examining how exchange rate volatility affects the economies of developed nations. However, little research has been done in understanding the impact of exchange rate volatility on FDI flows to Latin America. Developing countries lack the capital that is needed for further growth. Therefore, FDI is important to developing countries, because it allows them to gain the necessary capital. This paper examines the relationship between exchange rate volatility, political institutions and FDI flows into Latin America across two sectors: food processing, and industrial manufacturing. Empirical results show that exchange rate volatility significantly deters the flow of U.S. FDI into Latin America. Other significant economic factors are U.S. interest rates and openness to trade. Conflict and corruption are the political risk factors that have significant impacts on FDI flows. Conclusions from the paper recommend governments in Latin America to implement macroeconomic polices that promote stability, which could help reduce exchange rate volatility and lower inflation.
