| Tiivistelmä: | According to the debt overhang hypothesis, the external debt burden provides a strong disincentive to domestic capital formation. A simultaneous limited-dependent variable model is estimated, in which the debt burden and investment rates of LDCs are jointly determined. The results confirm that debt overhang has a strong negative effect on investment rates, while foreign capital inflows exert only slight effect. |
