    Recent evidence suggests that regional economic integration provides an important stimulus not only to trade, but also to FDI. In contrast, the available theory on FDI does not yet provide empirically testable propositions on the effects of concurrent trade and investment liberalisation. Moreover, given the limits of simulation models, which rely heavily upon parameter choice, in assessing the impact of such liberalisation, there is a need for empirical analysis to identify the principal features of FDI. This paper uses a "gravity model" approach to assess the impact of the deepening integration between the EU and the CEECs on FDI flows in terms of three key issues. First, we provide systematic estimates of the expected long-term level of FDI in the CEECs. Second, we investigate whether FDI in the CEECs, on the one hand, and source country exports and imports, on the other hand, are complements or substitutes. Finally, we enquire whether an increase in the attractiveness of the CEECs to foreign investors has affected the magnitude of FDI going to other European countries.

    Based on the gravity model of international trade, this paper initially analyzes North Korea's international trade pattern, which tends to follow the prediction of the gravity model: a positive relationship between trade and trading partners' GDP, and negative relationship between trade and distance. This pattern has been consistently preserved over recent several years in spite of economic sanctions by various countries, implying that those sanctions do not significantly change North Korea's trade environment. This result lies on the substitutability of goods among countries. For example, North Korea has traded increasingly larger amount of goods with China and Korea since Japan imposed sanctions against Pyeongyang. Unless all countries strictly agree on imposing sanctions against a specific country, which is almost impossible to be realized, imposing economic sanction will turn out to be unsuccessful.

    This paper is part of a broader agenda and constitutes a first step to empirically understand the main determinants of the inter-provincial trade in Argentina. We use a novel database of regional trade flows between the 24 Argentinean provinces for 2017. Using a structural gravity model and novel econometric techniques we analyze the main variables influencing trade between the provinces. In addition to the traditional variables of the canonical gravity model we add some variables of interest that ca possible affect trade between sub national jurisdictions. With an especial focus in financial flows we analyze the impact of co-participation transfers, income distribution and household's payment methods, among other variables that may be correlated with formal trade. Additionally, we analyze the potential impact of trade concentration in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA) and Buenos Aires. Trade flows are analyzed considering both, origin and destination. The results indicate that national transfers from the redistribution federal arrangement are an important determinant of inter provincial trade generating relevant (and negative in the origin) spillover effects between the provinces. Also, the concentration in CABA and Buenos Aires discourages inter-provincial trade.

    Distance, as a proxy for trade barriers, is found in many studies to matter even for weightless cross-border financial investments and lending, possibly due to the presence of information asymmetries. Its importance is tested in this paper using exports of all five broad categories of the U.K.'s financial and insurance services. No trade barriers are found for the bulk of the U.K.'s exports. Trade barriers are confirmed only for interest-bearing activities - being in line with available results in the literature. The positive effect of EU membership appears to be small. Notwithstanding the uncertainties, it suggests that post-Brexit disruptions of the U.K.'s export of financial and insurance services may be minor

    The research delves into the determinants of inward FDI to Colombia in the context of economic integration promoted by recent governments. Colombia's trade liberalisation, in addition to seeking to boost its trade flow, has focused on making the country more attractive to foreign direct investment (FDI), in a framework of fiscal discipline and a stable economic environment for economic growth, albeit characterised by complex institutional conditions. Government reforms have revitalized FDI inflows to Colombia, with the oil and mining sectors receiving the largest influx of new capital investments. Accordingly, this paper contributes to the literature with an analysis of the characteristics of FDI inflows to Colombia between 2007 and 2020 using an augmented gravity model approach. We find that stable government policies and the rule of law are key components in increasing FDI in Colombia and, more importantly, a bilateral investment treaty (BIT) significantly drives FDI into the country.

    We nest an extended two-way fixed effect (ETWFE) estimator for staggered difference-in-differences within the structural gravity model. To test the ETWFE, we estimate the effects of regional trade agreements (RTAs). The results suggest that RTA estimates in the current gravity literature may be biased downward (by more than 50% in our sample). Sensitivity analyses confirm the robustness of our main findings and demonstrate the applicability of our methods in different settings. We expect the ETWFE methods to have significant implications for the estimates of other policy variables in the trade literature and for gravity regressions on migration and FDI flows.

    This study examines the effects of bilateral exchange rate on trade flows in the WAMZ and assesses the role of complementarity trade structures in enhancing intra-WAMZ trade. The modified gravity model is used to assess whether efforts by WAMZ countries to facilitate transactions in national currencies and promote complementarity trade structures can enhance intra-WAMZ trade. The results from Poisson pseudo-maximum-likelihood (PPML)indicates some interesting results. It shows that there is positive and significant relationship between bilateral real exchange rate and bilateral exports, which suggests that a real depreciation of the exporting country's currency relative to the importing country's currency will stimulate bilateral exports. This clearly suggest that efforts by WAMZ countries to promote quoting and trading in national currencies will have a positive effect on bilateral trade flows among Member States. This relationship remains consistent despite controlling for endogeneity bias and using different alternative measurements for the key variables of interest. The estimated results also reveal that the extent of trade complementarity increases trade flows among WAMZ countries. Similarly, our findings for some other explanatory variables especially economic size indicates large elasticity of trade with respect to economic size. Suggesting that the economic size matters in promoting trade flows among WAMZ countries. Based on these findings this study recommends that WAMZ Member States should support efforts of the private sector to create the enabling infrastructure to support quoting and trading in national currencies. By encouraging cross-border trade and other transactions in national currencies, WAMZ countries can potentially avert large swings in exchange rates. These should be complemented by measures that will enhance trade complementarity structures, including encouraging regional value chains through trading in intermediate inputs across countries to enable WAMZ Member States to take advantage of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) initiative.

    We investigate the effects of US-imposed trade sanctions on the global trade patterns of sanctioned countries by employing a gravity model that incorporates data spanning from 1980 to 2020 across 79 nations and other various factors, this study explores how sanctions impact trade dynamics. The results reveal that both partial and complete US sanctions lead to significant reductions in bilateral trade between the US and target countries, with complete sanctions showing a more substantial negative impact. Moreover, while partial import sanctions and comprehensive import and export sanctions reduce third countries' exports to and imports from target countries, partial export sanctions reduce only third countries' imports without notably affecting total trade or third countries' exports to the sanctioned nations. Finally, we show that target countries with stronger political institutions, as measured by democracy indicators, manage to alleviate some of the adverse effects of US sanctions on bilateral trade with both the US and third countries.

    Commencing in the 1990s, India signed a number of bilateral investment treaties (BITs), however, after a spate of adverse investor-state dispute settlements (ISDS), India has recently denounced all its erstwhile investment treaties. New investment treaties now need to be negotiated on the basis of a new Model Treaty that substantially privileges state rights over investor rights. We study the impact of bilateral investment treaties on foreign direct investment inflows into India over the period these treaties were in force, to give us a sense whether the advent of the new regime will perhaps subtract some incentives in relation to FDI inflows. The impact of such institutional variables on FDI have been typically studied using large cross-country data sets - our work here is distinct in that we try to capture the effects of international investment agreements on foreign direct investment inflows specifically into India. To do this we construct an empirical model drawing on the Gravity Model, and estimate parameters using Generalised Method of Moments. Our results show that while the individual signing of bilateral investment treaties does not influence the inflow of foreign direct investment, the effect of the cumulative bilateral investment treaties signed is statistically very significant. The significance of the cumulative variable suggests that the spillover effect of signing a series of bilateral investment treaties are important, signaling a regime of overall protection to investors. The importance of institutional variables in influencing FDI into India tells us that overall participation in a system governed by international investor agreements did influence the inflow of foreign direct investment positively.

    This paper derives a Frankel-Romer instrument from a global trade matrix of 157 countries over the period 1990-2007, and deploys it to assess the relationship between international trade, domestic market potential, and income for the case of developing Asia, compared to the world average. The findings from panel instrumental variable regression confirm international trade to have caused income to rise on average across the world's trading nations, but particularly so for countries of developing Asia, where this effect appears to be strongest. By contrast, domestic trade potential represented by country size is found to be less relevant a factor in explaining the rise in income of developing Asia. In light of a likely softening of external demand for Asian exports as global rebalancing takes hold, Asia's underexploited domestic market potential represents considerable scope for the region to step up its efforts to gradually reinforce the domestic and regional dimensions as an additional engine of growth.

    This paper calculates the decline in costs involving merchandise trade between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and India during the period 1980-2008. Drawing from the recent literature, a comprehensive measure of trade costs is derived from a theory-founded gravity model of international trade, which can be computed on the basis of observed bilateral trade flows and gross domestic product data. The analysis reveals that trade costs have declined sharply since the 1980s, accounting for a large and increasing portion of growth in total trade between the two countries. Whereas the reduction of trade costs accounted for less than one third of the increase in trade between the PRC and India during the 1980s, lower costs seem to explain about three quarters of trade expansion during the 1990s, and up to nearly 85% in 2001-2008.
