INTRODUCTION
Foreign Capital is the source,amount or amount of goods that is introduced in a
host country by a foreign country.Getting resources from another country or from outside the boundry of our
country.
When people think about globalization, they often first think of the increasing
volume of trade in goods and services. Trade flows are indeed one of the most
visible aspects of globalization. ut many analysts argue that international
investment is a much more powerful force in propelling the world toward closer
economic integration. !nvestment, often alter sentire methods of production
through transfers of know"how, technology and management techni#ues, and
thereby initiates much more significant change than the simple trading of goods.
$ver the past ten years, foreign investment has grown at a significantly more
rapid pace than either international trade or world economic production generally.
From %&'( to%&&', international capital flows, a key indication of investment
across borders, grew by almost )*+ annually, compared to the *+ growth rate of
international trade. This investment has been a powerful catalyst for economic
growth. ut as with many of the other aspects of globalization, foreign investmentis raising many new #uestions about economic, cultural and political relationships
around the world. Flows of investment and the rules that govern or fail to govern
it can have profound impacts upon such diverse issues as economic development,
environmental protection, labor standards and economic stability. Forms of
Foreign !nvestment !nternational investment or capital flows fall into four
principal
There are many Forms of Foreign Capital Flowing into India such as banking
and -! deposits. The various Forms of Foreign Capital Flowing into !ndia has
helped to bring in huge amounts of F ! into the country, which in its turn has
given a ma/or boost to the !ndian economy.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI):
This category refers to international investment in which the investor obtains alasting interest in an enterprise in another country. F ! is calculated to include allkinds of capital contributions, such as the purchases of stocks, as well as thereinvestment of earnings by a wholly owned company incorporated abroad0subsidiary1, and the lending of funds to a foreign subsidiary or branch. Thereinvestment of earnings and transfer of assets between a parent company and its
subsidiary often constitutes a significant part of F ! calculations. 2n investor3searnings on F ! take the form of profits such as dividends, retained earnings,management fees and royalty payments. !nternational investment or capital flowsfall into four principal categories4 commercial loans, official flows, foreign directinvestment 0F !1, and foreign portfolio investment 0F5!1.Commercial loans,which primarily take the form of bank loans issued to foreign businesses orgovernments.$fficial flows, which refer generally to the forms of developmentassistance that developed nations give to developing ones.
Foreign direct investment 0F !1 pertains to international investment in which the
investor obtains a lasting interest in an enterprise in another country. 6ostconcretely, it may take the form of buying or constructing a factory in a foreigncountry or adding improvements to such a facility, in the form of property, plants,or e#uipment.
F ! is calculated to include all kinds of capital contributions, such as the purchases of stocks, as well as the reinvestment of earnings by a wholly ownedcompany incorporated abroad 0subsidiary1, and the lending of funds to a foreignsubsidiary or branch. The reinvestment of earnings and transfer of assets betweena parent company and its subsidiary often constitutes a significant part of F !calculations.2ccording to the 7nited ations Conference on Trade and

Foreign Portfolio Instit!tional Investment (FII):
F!! is a category of investment instruments that are more easily traded, may beless permanent, and do not represent a controlling stake in an enterprise. Theseinclude investments via e#uity instruments 0stocks1 or debt 0bonds1 of a foreignenterprise which does not necessarily represent a long"term interest. The returnsthat an investor ac#uires on F!! usually take the form of interest payments or non"voting dividends. !nvestments in F!! that are made for less than one year aredistinguished as short"term portfolio flows. Foreign portfolio investment 0F5!1, onthe otherhand is a category of investment instruments that is more easily traded,may be less permanent, and do not represent a controlling stake in an enterprise.These include investments via e#uity instruments 0stocks1 or debt 0bonds1 of a
foreign enterprise which does not necessarily represent a long"term interest.

The role of foreign capital in economic growth is much discussed nowadays but
remarkably little analysed. The basic ob/ective of this chapter is to investigate the
causal long run relationship between FC!s and economic growth of !ndia. The
FC!s"growth linkage assumes that the foreign capital inflows provide a significant
amount of contribution to the economic growth. To e8amine the same, first the
researcher developed a model on the basis of source of financing available to an

of capital to the growth in productivity can be allocated in proportion to their
respective weights in the total nest. !n this chapter an attempt has been made to
establish the relationship between foreign capital and economic growth of the
!ndian economy. The purpose of foreign capital to under developed countries is
to accelerate their economic development upto a point where a satisfactory
growth rate can be achieved on a self"sustaining basis. Capital flows in the formof private investmentH foreign investment, foreign aid and private bank lending

T%pes of Foreign Direct Investment
'reenfield investment:
irect investment in new facilities or the e8pansion of e8isting facilities. Green
field investments are the primary target of a host nation:s promotional efforts
because they create new production capacity and /obs, transfer technology and
know"how, and can lead to linkages to the global marketplace. ownside of
Greenfield investment is that profits from production do not feed back into the
local economy, but instead to the multinational3s home economy. This is in
contrast to local industries whose profits flow back into the domestic economy to
promote growth.

of firms from different countries are combined to establish a new legal entity.

The rapid growth of world population since %&*( has occurred mostly in
developing countries. This growth has been matched by more rapid increases in
gross domestic product, and thus income per capita has increased in most
countries around the world since %&*(. While the #uality of the data from %&*(may be of #uestion, taking the average across a range of estimates confirms this.
$nly war"torn and countries with other serious e8ternal problems, such as ?aiti,
;omalia, and iger have not registered substantial increases in G 5 per capita.
The data available to confirm this are freely available.
2n increase in F ! may be associated with improved economic growth due to the
influ8 of capital and increased ta8 revenues for the host country. ?ost countries
often try to channel F ! investment into new infrastructure and other pro/ects to boost development. Greater competition from new companies can lead to
productivity gains and greater efficiency in the host country and it has been
suggested that the application of a foreign entity:s policies to a domestic
subsidiary may improve corporate governance standards. Furthermore, foreign

positive effects of F ! include inducing incumbent firms to upgrade their

income, but also through vertical linkages with suppliers and others. =abour
turnover, on the other hand, may have rather different implications for the
individual firm on the one hand, and the wider economy on the other. For the
individual firm, some degree of labour stability will be re#uired to ensure that the
benefits from training flow back to the firm rather than moving on to rival firms.
For the economy as a whole, however, such movement may generate positive
spill"over effects. To some e8tent the successful creation of industrial districts can
internalise what would otherwise be e8ternalities to the firm, so that labour
turnover becomes less costly, as the firm becomes more likely to benefit from
recruiting already skilled labour, and will also benefit from the fact that other
firms within the region are operating at or near the relevant technological frontier.

The endogenous growth theories strongly support the role of F ! in
promoting economic growth in host countries. !n these theories, F ! is viewed as
a way to transfer knowledge, promote learning by doing, bring in technology spillover, and human capital growth. Conse#uently, F ! stimulates economic growth
in host countries .There are still inconclusive arguments for and against the role of
F ! inflows in enhancing economic growth in a country. Whether F ! inflows are
beneficial or not to economic growth especially in host developing countries are
still debateable among economists. !t is therefore very essential to analyse
e8pected theoretical relationship between F ! and these macro economic
variables before doing empirical investigation regarding their relationship. This
has been discussed below4

included in the value of their outputs1.Q
G 5 estimates are commonly used to measure the economic performance of a
whole country or region, but can also measure the relative contribution of an
industry sector. This is possible because G 5 is a measure of 3value added3 rather
than salesH it adds each firm3s value added 0the value of its output minus the value
of goods that are used up in producing it1. For e8ample, a firm buys steel and adds
value to it by producing a carH double counting would occur if G 5 added
together the value of the steel and the value of the car. ecause it is based on
value added, G 5 also increases when an enterprise reduces its use of materialsor other resources 0 3intermediate consumption 31 to produce the same output.
The more familiar use of G 5 estimates is to calculate the growth of the economy
from year to year 0and recently from #uarter to #uarter1. The pattern of G 5
growth is held to indicate the success or failure of economic policy and to
determine whether an economy is 3in recession 3.
The most widespread belief among researchers and policy makers is that
F ! boosts growth through different channels. !t increases the capital stock,
stimulates technological change through technological diffusion and generates
technological spillovers for local firms. Foreign investment is e8pected to
increase and improve the e8isting stock of knowledge in the recipient economy
through labour training, skill ac#uisition and diffusion. !t contributes by
introducing new management practices and a more efficient organization of the
production process. 2s a result, F ! improves the productivity of host countries
and stimulates economic growth in terms of increase in G 5 .!nvestigating the
impact of foreign capital on economic growth has important policy implications.

foreign investment in the host country. ?owever the negative impact of F ! on

'ross Capital Formation:
!t is the creation of productive assets that e8pand an economy3s capacity to
produce goods and services. 5rivate savings facilitate capital formation by
allowing resources to be diverted to corporate investment rather than individual
consumption. !t is very crucial macro economic parameter which determines the
growth of an economy. ;ince F ! establishes backward and forward linkages withlocal industries, it can also encourage domestic investment by creating an
enabling investment environment through transferring technologies and better
management techni#ues. Transnational corporations typically have access to a
wide variety of financing options. The risk"ad/usted cost of capital is usually
lower for them than the domestic firms in developing countries. Foreign firms can
undertake pro/ects for which domestic investors do not have the capacities to
carry out or which are considered too risky for host country firms. !n such cases,
F ! also serves to stimulate domestic investment by further boosting the total host
country investment. F ! not only adds to e8ternal financial resources for host
country development, it is also more stable than other forms of financing.
