  • Dosen
  • R. Widya Setiabudi, S.IP.,S.Si., M.T
  • Viani Puspita Sari, S.IP.,M.M

Foreign Investment
  • FI can be divided into 2 components
  • 1. Portfolio investment
  • ? The purchase of stocks and bonds to obtain a
    return on the funds invested
  • 2. Direct investment
  • ? The purchase of sufficient stock in a firm to
    obtain significant management control

3
Portfolio investment
  • Although portfolio investors are not directly
    concerned with the control of a firm, they invest
    immense amounts in stocks and bonds from other
    countries
  • Example persons residing outside the US owned
    American stock and bonds other than US Treasury
    securities with a value of 2,861 billion in 2002
    (including 1,171 billion in corporate stocks, a
    decline of 293 bilion from 2001 level).

Direct investment
  • By which the investors participate in the
    management of the firm in addition to receiving a
    return on their money.
  • The distinction between the two components has
    begun to blur, particularly with the growing size
    and number of international mergers, acquisitions
    ,and alliances in recent years.
  • Ex investments by a foreign investor in the
    stock of a domestic company generally are treated
    as direct investment when the investors equity
    participation ratio is 10 or more

5
Level and Direction of FDI
  • If a nation is continuing to receive appreciable
    amount of foreign investment, its investment
    climate must be favorable. This means that
    political forces of the foreign environment are
    relatively attractive and that the opportunity to
    earn a profit is greater there than elsewhere.
  • Other reasons for investing exist, to be sure
    however if the above factors are absent, foreign
    investment is not likely to occur.

6
Trade leads to FDI
  • Historically, FDI has followed foreign trade. One
    reason is that FDI is typically less costly and
    less risky than making a direct investment into
    foreign markets
  • Management can expand the business in small
    increments rather than through the considerably
    greater amounts of investment and market size
    that a foreign production facility requires.
  • Typically, a firm would use domestic or foreign
    agents to export. As the export business
    increased, the firm would set up an export
    department and hire sales representatives to live
    in overseas market. The firm might even establish
    its own sales company to import in its own name ?
    continuously make a subsidiary as a reason of
    creating economic of scale

7
