We model five channels of outward orientation: exports, imports, foreign direct investment, foreign portfolio investment and other foreign investment. A cointegrated vector autoregressive model, complemented by a robust Granger noncausality test, is specified to identify permanent channels of outward orientation. Imports and direct investment are found to have a growth effect in the long run. The effect of imports is almost three times that of direct investment.", pages = "1525-1532", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/routledg/raef/2009/00000041/00000012/art00007", doi = "doi:10.1080/00036840601032177" }
