关于一个国家的工业化问题，经济治理问题得到了高度的讨论，但关于贸易和外国直接投资(FDI)的文献几乎没有注意到这一方面。我们开发了一个简单的模型来展示国内良好的经济治理，即降低国内营销和分销成本，如何影响外国直接投资流入和国内福利。国内的良好治理能否吸引外国直接投资，取决于它对营销和分销成本的影响方式。良好治理对国内福利的影响是模糊的，取决于企业之间的成本差异、国际运输成本和成本降低的程度。我们的分析揭示了在存在外国竞争的情况下，某些情况下治理不善的战略原因。
The issue of economic governance is highly discussed pertaining to the question of industrialisation of a country, but the literature on trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) hardly pays attention to this aspect. We develop a simple model to show how good economic governance in the domestic country, reducing domestic marketing and distribution costs, affects inward FDI and domestic welfare. Whether good governance in the domestic country attracts FDI depends on the way it affects the marketing and distribution costs. The effect of good governance is ambiguous on domestic welfare and depends on the cost difference between the firms, international transportation cost and the extent of cost reduction. Our analysis reveals strategic reasons for poor governance in some situations in the presence of foreign competition.
