Vliv přímých zahraničních investic (FDI) na strukturu a zahraniční obchod ghanské ekonomiky
Yeboah, Evans
This thesis explores the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on Ghana's economy and foreign trade using a multivariate time series approach. The study analyzes data from 1984-2020, employing techniques such as the Johansen coin-tegration test, Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), and Granger causality test. The results suggest that FDI has a positive relationship with the agriculture and service sectors, but a negative effect on manufacturing. In contrast, imports have a positive relationship with agriculture and service sectors, but a negative effect on manufacturing. Export has a negative effect on agriculture and service sectors, but a positive impact on manufacturing. The Johansen test shows a positive relationship between FDI and exports and a negative relationship between FDI and imports. The study also suggests that FDI and exports positively impact economic growth, while imports harm it. The VECM analysis shows a long-run interdependency among agriculture, manufacturing, services, FDI, exports, and imports. The Granger causality test reveals a unidirectional short-term relationship between agriculture and service sectors and explanatory variables (FDI, exports, and imports), but no short-term causality between manufacturing and FDI, exports, and imports. The study recommends that Ghana's government should focus on FDI and exports to boost economic growth.
Foreign aid and the economy of Guinea
Bayo, Mamadou Sanoussy
The study explores the oversea aids-led economic growth hypothesis; while controlling for trade openness and infrastructure development policies. The data sources for the study come from the world bank annual report and time frame for the study is from 1992 down to 2019. Analysis of Augment dicker fuller test affirmed that the policy variables in time series are non-stationary at level; but stationary at first difference. In addition, analysis of Johannsen cointegration approach affirmed that all the policy variables in times series coexist in the long run or term and Ordinary Least Square is utilized to perform the empirical data analysis. After the empirical analysis, result goes to indicate that the oversea aids have a negative and significant association with the economic growth and the infrastructure development has a negative and insignificant association with the output growth. In addition, the trade openness has a positive and significant association with the productivity growth

Danyś, Ondřej
Danyś, O. Research and Development Expenditures and Economic Growth. Bachelor thesis. Brno: Mendel University in Brno, 2023. The bachelor's thesis examines the relationship between R&D spending and economic growth with a focus on government spending. The goal of the work is fulfilled thanks to panel regression analysis. The theoretical part shows the reasons why these expenses should lead to economic growth and contributes to the creation of the model in the empirical part. In the empirical part, a panel regression analysis is performed based on data from selected OECD countries. The period chosen for this analysis is between 2000-2020. The results of this regression indicated a positive effect of both total and government R&D expenditures on economic growth.

The impact of public debt on Ghana's economic growth
Ansah, Ebenezer Yaw
ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH Using the Ordinary Least Square Technique, the research investigated the impact of public debt on economic growth in Ghana from 1980 to 2022. The Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) technique was also employed in the study to assess time series data stationarity. The time series plot was used in the study to assess the patterns in public debt and economic growth. To examine the impact of public debt on economic growth, the Ordinary Least Squares Method was utilized. The research showed a significant negative relationship between public debt and economic growth (GDP) across the study period. This suggests that the Ghanaian economy's sluggish growth is primarily due to the government's huge amounts of debt. Internal revenues that could have been used to propel expansion and growth are diverted to debt servicing both internally and outside. This has a rippling effect on the economy, and it is a major issue that the country should be able to look at and devise inventive methods for generating revenues while reducing excessive government expenditure. Over the years, government of Ghana has maintained a budget deficit and had to borrow to pay the salary of public sector workers. This is due to a lack of adequate fiscal policy to regulate policymakers' operations and spending habits. The country is also not coming up with new ways to generate revenue.
Institutions and economic growth
Matúš, Samuel
This bachelor thesis studies the relationship between the quality of political and economic institutions and economic growth using panel data models of 169 countries over the period 1990-2021. The study provides the necessary evidence that institutions support economic growth. Economic institutions have greater significance in comparison with political institutions which can be caused by not creating a specific category for non-democratic, oil-oriented countries. An additional model was conducted on 90 countries with data from 2000 to 2021 to find determinants of institutional quality which are tax revenue, economic development, and cultural and geographical effects. These findings and pitfalls may benefit both researchers and policymakers seeking a better understanding of growth-enhancing institutions.
The impact of the arrival of displaced Germans for the economic development of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Hudecová, Dominika ; Kučera, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Konrád, Ota (referee)
The objective of this work is to analyze the influence of the arrival of expelled Germans on postwar reconstruction of West Germany in connection with their labor market integration. The precondition how to become an active participant on the economy recovery is a stable job. The conclusion of this work is, that expelled Germans were from the beginning an active part of postwar economic reconstruction of Germany, despite of the fact, that there were some structural problems in the economy like a black market, lack of accommodation facilities in the cities or unequable dislocation of these people in the occupied zones. These problems were removed by the currency and economy reforms. After the reforms came in sight, that expelled Germans represented a positive part of the economic reconstruction in form of free, qualified and cheap labour force, which could be purposefully use. This evaluation is based on critical interpretation of the facts received from the literature, scholarly articles and Internet sources.
Evaluation of International Financial Integration on Growth in CEE Countries
Yang, Yang ; Jeřábek, Petr (advisor) ; Li, Yating (referee) ; Čech, František (referee)
The thesis examines the influence of international financial integration on growth in Central and Eastern European economies using a two-way fixed effects model with macroeconomic data for 16 Central and Eastern European countries from 2007 to 2021. The thesis draws several conclusions. First, the ratio of net FDI inflows and outflows to GDP does not present a significant effect on growth. Although the stock data on FDI is similarly not significant for the overall sample regression, the regression of the sample divided into developed and developing economies shows a positive effect of FDI liabilities on economic growth for developed economies and a negative effect of FDI liabilities on economic growth for developing economies. Second, for both the overall sample, developed economies, and developing economies, none of the portfolio investment asset variables are statistically significant, except for portfolio investment assets in developing economies. Third, both portfolio debt and other investment debt negatively affect economic growth in developing economies and the overall sample, while the result is not significant for developed economies.
Poverty, Inequality and Economic Growth: the Case of Post-Soviet Countries
Ren, Jiayi ; Holub, Tomáš (advisor) ; Li, Yating (referee) ; Svoboda, Karel (referee)
This paper empirically examines the triangular relationship between poverty, growth, and income inequality in 13 post-Soviet countries between 1998 and 2020. Regression results reveal that economic growth has a significant negative impact on poverty while income inequality has a significant positive impact on poverty. Initial conditions (both initial economic growth and initial income inequality) matter in explaining the change of poverty. Poverty tends to be more responsive to the change of income inequality. Growth effect and inequality effect varied across different subgroups. Moreover, mutual causality has been found between poverty and income inequality while the unidirectional impact of income inequality on growth is inverted- U shaped. Finally, a significant moderation effect of economic growth on the linkage between poverty and income inequality has been found.
