In 2016, many observations affirmed that the global economy is likely to be
condemned to subdued growth over the next few years, with risks of a crisis in China, the
potential “Japanisation” of the Eurozone and a possible US recession all casting a shadow
over the global economy. On the other hand, we observe a rise of South-East Asia. This
phenomenon is explained by the continuous reduction of trade barriers, which encourages
the (foreign) investments. Indeed, the decision makers (ASEAN leaders) are very
pragmatic in the choice of the policies, resulting on a growing productivity. Following
this context, South East Asian nations such as Singapore, Hong Kong or Taiwan appear
to be a place of opportunities and future investment regarding the current context. This
study intents to observe this phenomenon across the different determinants to foreign
direct investment (FDI). For doing so, a panel data analysis has been used. The
observations take place between 2000 and 2015. The data have been taken from
Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Japan, Malaysia and Thailand.
In this study, the financial crisis of 2008 will be considered to measure the differences
that occur before and after this event.
Keywords: crisis, investments (FDI), opportunities, growth.
