Abstrakt

Głównym celem badania jest wpływ jakości rządzenia na aktywną internacjonalizację przedsiębiorstw w Unii Europejskiej. Najpierw zmierzyliśmy i porównaliśmy poziom jakości instytucjonalnej w państwach członkowskich UE w latach 2004–2021, wykorzystując autorski syntetyczny indeks jakości rządzenia (SIGQ). Następnie porównaliśmy wartość zagranicznych inwestycji bezpośrednich wychodzących (OFDI) w relacji do PKB na mieszkańca w każdym państwie członkowskim UE. Na koniec skorelowaliśmy ogólną jakość rządzenia (GQ) i jej sześć wymiarów z OFDI w państwach członkowskich UE–28 (w tym w Wielkiej Brytanii). Zastosowaliśmy metody statystyczne, m.in. hierarchiczną analizę skupień, analizę kontyngencji, syntetyczne wartości indeksu i statystyki opisowe. Wyniki analizy statystycznej potwierdziły pozytywny związek między jakością rządzenia a OFDI. Najważniejszą ze zmiennych cząstkowych okazał się współczynnik określający rządy prawa (rule of law), to znaczy postrzeganie stopnia, w jakim jednostki i podmioty przestrzegają zasad społecznych w danym kraju. Nasze badania pokazują, że decydenci polityczni powinni rozważyć znaczenie wskaźników jakości instytucjonalnej we wspieraniu krajowych firm w wychodzeniu za granicę. Głównym wkładem w obecny stan wiedzy na temat OFDI jest próba zidentyfikowania ich związku z GQ we wszystkich państwach członkowskich Unii Europejskiej („starych” i „nowych”) przy użyciu indeksu SIGQ.
