项目摘要

Our main research achievements are as follows:(i) First, using Japanese firm-level data we calculated export and FDI entry and exit statistics, and conducted empirical analysis. We found that trade costs (proxied by distance) shape Japanese firm's outward FDI activity in addition to learning by exporting and productivity channels. We proposed a theoretical model suggesting that trade costs limit firms' ability to reveal the foreign market demand. In addition, we analyzed how past export experience and future expectations of intra-firm trade affect the decision of FDI entry by Japanese firms. We found that both channels play important role in explaining the dynamics in outward activities of Japanese firms,(ii) Second, using extended OECD inter-country input-output tables we computed trade in value added (TiVA) indicators to examine the participation of Japanese manufacturing plants in GVCs. We found that some industries in Japan’s manufacturing sector have been losing competitiveness and forward linkages may be weakening. We concluded that Japanese firms may benefit less from foreign final demand.(iii) Third, we investigated, both theoretically and empirically, the role of technology level in Global Value Chain (GVC) formation from two aspects: position and participation volume. We developed a simple multi-country model where countries are heterogeneous with respect to their technology level and labor force. We conducted an empirical analysis using World Input-Output Database (WIOD) for the period from 1995 to 2011 to confirm our hypotheses.

本文的主要研究成果如下：(1)首先，利用日本企业层面的数据，计算了出口和FDI出入境的统计数据，并进行了实证分析。我们发现，除了通过出口和生产率渠道学习之外，贸易成本(以距离为代理)塑造了日本企业的对外直接投资活动。我们提出了一个理论模型，认为贸易成本限制了企业揭示国外市场需求的能力。此外，我们还分析了过去的出口经验和未来对企业内部贸易的预期如何影响日本企业的FDI进入决策。我们发现，这两个渠道在解释日本企业对外活动的动态方面都发挥了重要作用。(Ii)其次，利用扩展的OECD国家间投入产出表，我们计算了增加值贸易(TIVA)指标，以检验日本制造厂参与全球价值链的情况。我们发现，日本制造业的一些行业一直在失去竞争力，前向联系可能正在减弱。第三，从理论和实证两个方面考察了技术水平在全球价值链(GVC)形成中的作用。我们开发了一个简单的多国模式，其中各国的技术水平和劳动力都是不同的。为了验证我们的假设，我们利用世界投入产出数据库(WIOD)对1995-2011年间的数据进行了实证分析。
