It is this idea that I believe has driven the Society for nearly 250 years. From a bag of coal during winter in the 18th century to an air conditioner amidst a heat wave in 2016, we have provided care and comfort when it is needed most. Whilst our assistance has evolved over time, our purpose has remained the same: we are people helping people. In 2016, the Society contributed over $900,000 to our charitable programs aiding the elderly, enabling students to complete their degrees and helping people in crisis. Your support had a direct effect on people—lifting them from despair, calming fears and giving them hope.

    Taking the Thai Trail Taking the Thai Trail: Attracting FDI via Macro-Level Policy. Bhagaporn Wattanadumrong1, 2, Alan Collins2, Martin C. Snell2 1 Pibulsongkram Rajabhat University,Thailand 2 University of Portsmouth, UK Corresponding Author: Prof. Alan Collins Economics and Finance Group University of Portsmouth Richmond Building, Portland Street, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO1 3DE UNITED KINGDOM Tel: +44(0) 2392 844128 Fax: +44(0) 2392 844038 Email: [email protected] Abstract: This study reports on the establishment of an extensive and detailed composite dataset to support country-level econometric studies of FDI in Thailand. This has permitted investigation in detail, for the first time, of the key macroeconomic determinants of FDI in Thailand over the period 1970-2004. In particular, the influence of interest rates, exchange rates, volumes of trade, wage rates and geographical distance on FDI were considered and the results are reviewed in the context of other country studies. Keywords: Foreign Direct Investment, Thailand, Pooled Data, GMM PAGE 1 Taking the Thai Trail 1. Introduction This study features the first major econometric analysis of the determinants of FDI in Thailand employing an approach that is strongly influenced by the work of Wei and Liu (2001). They examined the determinants of FDI in China with respect to a wide range of country characteristics and also extended the literature by employing a dynamic panel data approach in their econometric work. This paper complements that work with analysis of a detailed composite Thai FDI dataset, covering the time period 1970-2004, assembled from many different sources and subject to considerable integrity testing.
