PROS of FDI• It reduces the gap between farm prices and retail
prices.
• Gives best management practices from all over the world.
• It makes market intelligent and also provides good understanding and practical knowledge to he domestic retailers.
• To achieve expected growth in India GDP: India is targeting for its GDP to grow by 8 to10 percent per year. This requires raising the rate of investment as well as generating demand for the increased goods and services produced.
• Provide an aid to Indian agriculture to become lowest cost source of farm produce.
• To bring trade balance and to increase liquidity by the way of foreign exchange reserves .
• The status of the human resources in a country is also instrumental in attracting direct investment from overseas countries like China that have taken an active interest in increasing the quality of their workers and have made compulsory for every Chinese citizen to receive at least nine ears of education. This has helped in enhancing the standards of the laborers in China.
• If a particular country has plenty of natural resources it always finds investors willing to put their money in them. A good example would be Saudi Arabia and other oil rich countries that have had overseas companies investing in them in order to tap the unlimited oil resources at their disposal.
• Infrastructure is very important for FDI. So if a country keens to have overseas investors they have to focus on infrastructure.
• Threats on organized and unorganized retail players
• Replacement of established national brands by the brands of the retail gains. For e.g Wal-Mart is committed to buying the best goods at the cheapest prices to give its customers the best value for money. That is why it sources so heavily from China. 70% of merchandise in Wal-Mart contains components made in China. Even though Wal-mart may not continue heavy operations in china but would continue heavy sourcing from china market to cater to the world markets at lower prices. Low prices of Chinese products can easily convince Indian price consciousness mentality. Acceptance towards Chinese brands can create a direct threat on Indian established brands providing best quality products with reasonable prices.
CONS OF FDI
• While the levels of FDI tend to be resilient during periods of economic uncertainty, it has the potential of adversely affecting the net capital flow of a developing economy especially if it does not have a healthy and sustainable FDI schedule.
• FDIs may enter the host country for unique strategic reasons but there is ultimately the need to achieve returns on investments. For e.g. paying a premium for the price of labor may improve the consumption power of workers, but it also has the detrimental ability of disrupting the local employment market. When prices rise, supply increases while demand falls. Similarly, when the price of labor increase, wage premiums in this case, this creates a distortion and creates disequilibrium in he labor market. Job matching stops being efficient and may even create unemployment.
What is an FII??• An investor or investment fund that is from or registered
in a country outside of the one in which it is currently investing. Institutional investors include hedge funds, insurance companies, pension funds and mutual funds.
• The term is used most commonly in India to refer to outside companies investing in the financial markets of India.
• International institutional investors must register with the Securities and Exchange Board of India to participate in the market.
• One of the major market regulations pertaining to FIIs involves placing limits on FII ownership in Indian companies.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FII)• FIIs may invest in:
• securities in the primary and secondary markets (shares, debentures, warrants of listed and unlisted companies)
• units issued by domestic mutual funds
• dated Government securities
• derivatives traded on a recognized stock exchange
• commercial paper
• debt instruments – provided a 70/30 equity/debt ratio is maintained
Foreign Institutional Investors (FII)• Limits on the type and amount of investments
apply to FIIs• no more than 10% of the equity in any one company• no more than 10% in the equity in any one company
on behalf of a fund sub-account• no more than 5% in the equity in any one company
on behalf of a corporate/individual sub-account• no more than 24% in the aggregate of the total
issued capital of a company to be held by FIIs
FDI Vs FII
• FDI is an investment that a parent company makes in a foreign country. On the contrary, FII is an investment made by an investor in the markets of a foreign nation.
• FII can enter the stock market easily and also withdraw from it easily. But FDI cannot enter and exit that easily.
• Foreign Direct Investment targets a specific enterprise. The FII increasing capital availability in general.
• The Foreign Direct Investment is considered to be more stable than Foreign Institutional Investor.
• The outward FDI of developing and transition companies has risen tremendously over the last few years. For India the absolute terms of FDI have risen, but compared to the GDP of India there is still a lot of potential for more outward FDI, according to the World Investment Report 2006 by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development.
OUTWARD FLOW OF FDI
The main reasons for Indian companies to engage in outward FDI are-
Market related factors, more and more companies are looking for a niche market for their product, and especially the IT-sector finds a growing market abroad.
More companies realize that they operate in a global economy and not in a domestic one. Therefore specialization from abroad are used to improve the way of doing business of the company.
Supportive host-governments. Most host-governments are very supportive towards incoming FDI because it adds to their economy.
There is a growing concern about running short of key resources and inputs for the company’s economic expansion.
