AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH ON BITS INFLUENCE ON CHINAS INWARD FDI
Countries all around the world with motive to attract,promote and protect Foreign Investments,have signed thousands of Bilateral Investment Treaties(BIT)in last three decades.But the effect of Bilateral Investment Treaties on Foreign Direct Investment(FDI)is still debatable.The concept of analyzing the heterogeneity of BITs have started only in recent years.OECD nations are the source of most of the Worlds Foreign Direct Investment and China has the second highest number of signed Bilateral Investment Treaties.It would be interesting to analyze the effect of heterogeneous BIT on Chinas Inward Foreign Direct Investment.We empirically study the effect of heterogeneous BIT on Foreign Direct Investment by analyzing the data from the year 2000 to 2016.The empirical result suggests no significant correlation between heterogeneous BIT and Chinas Inward Foreign Direct Investment.However,complying with the gravity model,empirical results show positive correlation with economy size and openness,negatively with distance.It also shows positive correlation with Institutional Quality Indicator variables like Political Stability,Government Effectiveness.
