Bu çalışmanın amacı kamu özel işbirliği (KÖİ) ile finanse edilen ulaşım altyapısı projelerinin gelişmekte olan ülkelerin doğrudan yabancı yatırım (DYY) çekme üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. KOİ yöntemi özellikle kamu sektöründe yaşanan maddi sıkıntılar ve projelerin tamamlanmasının uzun zaman alması gibi nedenlerden dolayı tercih edilen bir yöntemdir. Ulaşım altyapısı ise bölgesel kalkınmaya hizmet eden ve tedarik zincirlerinin kesintisiz devam etmesine yardımcı olan bir altyapı çeşididir. Çalışmadaki veriler Sabit Etkiler modeli ile analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre KÖİ ile finanse edilen altyapı projelerinin DYY üzerindeki etkisi anlamlı ve pozitiftir. Bu sonuç doğrultusunda, KÖİ finansman modeli kullanılarak yapılan ulaşım altyapısı projeleri DYY’yi gelişmekte olan ülkelere çekmek için tercih edilebilir; fakat bu finansman modelinin maliyet ve faydaları dikkatli bir şekilde incelenmelidir.

Impact of Public Private Partnerships Infrastructure Investment in Transport on Foreign Direct Investment Inflows

Öz

The aim of this study is to investigate the role of public-private partnerships (PPPs) investment in transport on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in developing countries. The PPP method is a preferred financing method as it shortens the project period and acts as a solution to financial difficulties faced by the public sector due to insufficient funds. Transport infrastructure is a type of infrastructure that serves regional development and allows uninterrupted operation of supply chains. The fixed effects model is used to analyze the data. According to the empirical results, the impact of transport infrastructure financed by PPP on FDI inflows is significant and positive. Based on this result, it can be concluded that the PPP project financing model can be used as an alternative financing model in transportation projects to attract FDI; however, one should evaluate the costs and benefits of such projects carefully.
