Empirical Study on the Effects of Intellectual Property Protection on Import, FDI, and License

초록/요약

According to WTO's TRIPs Agreement and rapid development of high-tech industries, international interest in intellectual property protection(IPP) has been highly increased, resulting a rapid increase in studies on intellectual property. In this study, we try to investigate empirically the relationship between IPP and three means of servicing foreign market, and the relative effects of IPP on these three means, using country data of national IPP index, import, FDI, license and countries classification by development level from 1996 to 2003. Empirical results show that the reinforcement of IPP has positive effect on license inflow, regardless countries' development level. But, in the case of import and FDI, IPP has positive effect for developed countries and negative effect for less developed countries. FDI and license inflow have increased more than import by the reinforcement of IPP, meaning that IPP influences firm's decision about transferring knowledge assets to foreign markets and outside of firms.
