Several studies have been conducted to find out the economic determinants affecting the FDI inflows across the world but not much has been explored on the institutional factors affecting FDI inflows in emerging economies. Therefore, this paper aims to determine whether institutional quality has any significant impact on the FDI inflows in the specific context of India and China using panel data analysis. Under this technique, all the three regression models, i.e., pooled ordinary least square, fixed effects, and random effects are tested to explore the institutional determinants impacting FDI inflows. The empirical results of the modified random effect model reveal that the country's risk rating on corruption and gender parity index are the two most significant institutional determinants impacting the FDI inflows in both India and China commonly.","PeriodicalId":191197,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Comparative Management","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126298290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A large number of factors affect the supply chain due to which its smooth functioning becomes a complex issue. The factors leading to the disruption in supply chain are basically categorised into two aspects, behavioural aspect which is related to the decision-making process at every echelon of supply chain, and operational aspect which deals with the operational facet of supply chain management. This paper proposes interpretive structural modelling (ISM) of critical operational factors on extensive literature and expert opinions that provide a framework to deal with bullwhip effect in a unified manner covering behavioural as well as operational issues and hence resulting in the smooth functioning of supply chain management. The ISM framework consists of sequential actions required to deal with the bullwhip effect, and subsequently MICMAC analysis has been performed on the identified factors.","PeriodicalId":191197,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Comparative Management","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129779751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
