Abstract

Raspad socijalističkog sustava početkom devedesetih godina doveo je do brojih poteškoća za zemlje koje su prelazile u sustav tržišnog gospodarstva. Brojna istraživanja ističu značaj dotoka izravnih stranih ulaganja na gospodarski rast tranzicijskih zemalja. Zbog toga je u ovom diplomskom radu napravljena analiza utjecaja inozemnih stranih ulaganja na gospodarski rast odabranih tranzicijskih zemalja koje su ujedno i članice Europske unije u razdoblju od 1995. do 2014. godine. U radu je korišten ekonometrijski model panel analize na uzorku od 11 europskih tranzicijskih zemalja. Rezultati analize potvrđuju da FDI utječe pozitivno na gospodarski rast i realnu konvergenciju ove skupine zemalja, i da je FDI statistički značajan za rast ovih zemalja. Uz to, pokazalo se da statistički značajnu ulogu na gospodarski rast imaju krediti od strane financijskog sektora raznim domaćim sektorima i štednja, kao i lagirane vrijednosti ovih varijabli.

Abstract (english)

Breakdown of the socialist system in the begining of the nineteens lead to a number of
difficulties for countries which now entered the transition to the market system. Researches
show that the inflow of foreign direct investments has an positive effect on the economic
growth of transit countries. Therefore, in this Master's thesis an analysis of influence of
foreign direct investments on economic growth of selected transtion countries which also are
members of the European Union between 1995. and 2014. has been made. In this thesis the
econometric analysis of panel data on the sample of 11 European transit countries has been
used. The results of this analysis confirm that FDI has an positive effect on the economic
growth of this group of countries, and that FDI ist statistically significant for the growth of
these countries. In addition, it has been shown that credits provided by the financial sector to
various sectors and savings, as well as the lagged variables, play statistically significant roles
on growth.
