- Abstract
This paper empirically investigates the relationship between the real exchange rate of the JPY and FDI absorption in Japan from 1995 to 2020 using cointegration tests and Granger causality tests. On the one hand, when the exchange rate changes, there is a time lag in the investment decision of enterprises, on the other hand, foreign direct investment in enterprises in capital-importing countries often needs to be based on the expectation of future exchange rates. Therefore, this paper models the real effective exchange rate index of the yen with the different lag periods as well as the amount of direct foreign investment absorbed in Japan respectively. It is shown that at 95% significance level, the regression equation coefficients with a lag of 4,5,6 years between the two sides were statistically significant. There is neither a long-term stable cointegration relationship nor Granger causality relationship between the real effective exchange rate of the Japanese yen, or the fluctuation of the Japanese yen exchange rate complemented in the following studies, and the absorption of foreign direct investment in Japan. The results indicate that exchange rate behavior has no significant effect on attracting foreign investment in Japan’s foreign exchange market. On this basis, the corresponding policy suggestions are put forward to maintain the stability of foreign exchange and capital markets.
