From the author: This paper estimates the effects of the bilateral trade agreement (BTA) between the United States and Vietnam, which came into effect in December 2001, on foreign direct investment (FDI) in Vietnam. The effects are simulated using the results of an econometric model of the determinants of FDI, which is estimated in reduced form using data from sixteen Asian countries from 1990 to 1999. The BTA should lead to 30 per cent more FDI into Vietnam in the first year, and an eventual doubling of the flow. This would boost economic growth by 0.6 percentage points annually. However the inflow would only be maintained if Vietnam makes the changes required to join the World Trade Organization (WTO) by about 2005.
