This book aims to identify the determinants of international
portfolio capital investment flows into Malaysia during 1991 to
2002. Specifically, the determinants of portfolio capital flows are
investigated by distinguishing the push (external)and pull
(internal) factors. Push factors include economic conditions
outside the host country such as world interest rate and growth
rate, while pull factors include various economic and financial
conditions of the host country. The effects of each determinant of
portfolio capital investment (PCI) are examined by analyzing the
time series data. The multi-regression analysis was conducted to
identify the type of relationship between the dependent and
independent variables. The findings show that both push and pull
factors are significant in determining the portfolio capital
investment flows into Malaysia. The results provide strong evidence
that the world (U.S) real interest rate, Malaysian inflation rate
(CPI) and the growth rate of the stock price index (KLSE CI) are
significant in determining the portfolio capital flows to Malaysia.
