•FDI from the South: The role of institutional distance and natural resources (2013, background): “…makes investors reluctant to enter foreign markets, unless they can write binding long-term contracts to decrease all types of uncertainty, and, hence, government stability, and institutions enabling contract enforcement are especially important (Naudé and Krugell, 2007; Busse and Hefeker, 2007).”
Foreign direct investments, institutional quality, and economic growth (2019, background): “…foreign direct investments and studies have found institutional quality to be a strong determinant of FDI inflow (see Daude and Stein 1997; Busse and Hefeker 2007; Ali, Fiess, and MacDonald 2010), very limited research is focused on exploring the FDI-growth altering effect of…”
Foreign Direct Investment, Financial Development and Political Risks (2010, positive): “Busse and Hefeker (2005) show in their study that some aspects of political stability like government stability, the absence of internal and external conflicts, basic democratic rights and an efficient law and order system, matter significantly in determining FDI inflows.”
Policy Uncertainty, Irreversibility, and Cross-Border Flows of Capital (2013, positive): “The final measure is a variation of the log transformation used by Busse and Hefeker (2007).”
Political risk and dividend policy: Evidence from international political crises (2015, positive): “Busse and Hefeker (2007) show that several political risk and institution measures (e.g., government stability, the absence of internal conflict and ethnic tensions, basic democratic rights, and ensuring law and order) are highly significant determinants of foreign investment inflows.”
Ratification counts: US investment treaties and FDI flows into developing countries (2010, background): “that have such domestic institutions are also likely to attract more FDI (Busse and Hefeker, 2007; Büthe and Milner, 2008, 2009; Neumayer and Spess, 2005; Tobin and Rose-Ackerman, 2006).”
Foreign direct investment, aid, and terrorism (2014, methodology): “Busse and Hefeker (2007) argue that although horizontal investment may be attracted by higher trade barriers, export-oriented or vertical investment may favor relatively more open economies.”
Do Institutions Matter for Foreign Direct Investment? (2010, background): “More recently, evidence in favour of the FDI/ institutions link (Globerman and Shapiro (2002), Busse and Hefeker (2005), Bènassy-Quèrè et al (2005)) seems to be mounting, although no conclusive result has yet been established.”
Foreign direct investment and the ease of doing business (2015, background): “…Djankov, Ganser, McLiesh, Ramalho and Shleifer (2010b)), political risk and stability (e.g. Lucas (1993); Gastanaga, Nugent and Pashamova (1998); Busse and Hefeker (2007)), human capital (e.g. Carr, Markusen and Maskus (2001)), exchange rates (e.g. Froot and Stein (1991); Blonigen (1997)) and…”
Institutions, Foreign Direct Investment, and Domestic Investment: Crowding Out or Crowding In? (2016, background): “…government efficiency, control of corruption, and financial supervision (see Buchanan et al. (2012); Morrissey and Udomkerdmongkol (2012); Ali et al. (2010); Javorcik and Wei (2009); Daude and Fratzscher (2008); Daude and Stein (2007); Busse and Hefeker (2007); Benassy-Quere et al. (2007)).”
