Abstract

Well-known to be the most dynamic economic region in Vietnam with the establishment of more export processing zones, high technology parks, and industrial zones, the Southeast region is increasingly attracting more capital flows from all over the world. Does FDI inflow crowd in private investment in this region? To answer this research question, the study examines the effect of FDI inflow on private investment for a sample of 6 provinces/cities of the Southeast region between 2005 and 2019 using the panel quantile regression approach, the difference GMM Arellano-Bond, and the FE-IV estimator. The results show that FDI inflow crowds in private investment in this region. In addition, public expenditure, inflation, and population also promote private investment. These findings suggest some crucial policy implications for local governments in this region to receive more FDI inflows as well as promote private investment.
