‘The Peak of Stupidity and ‘The Valley of Despair: HSE Economists Propose an Explanation for the Dunning–Kruger Effect
The Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes a sharp surge in self-confidence among beginners followed by an equally rapid decline as they gain experience, can be explained by the nature of the learning process and the acquisition of new knowledge. This conclusion was reached by Andrey Vorchik of the HSE Faculty of Economic Sciences together with independent researcher Murat Mamyshev. They developed a mathematical model of learning and demonstrated how subjective confidence is formed and changes as knowledge accumulates, as well as how teachers can reduce the ‘valley of despair’ experienced by learners.

The Effects of Investment Treaties and Trade Agreements on FDI: The Case of Serbia

Eastern European Economics. 2024. P. 1–27.
Nenovsky N., Lee H., Yu W.

This study explores the effects of Bilateral Investment Treaties (BIT) and Regional Trade Agreements (RTA) on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into Serbia, utilizing panel data for 2010–2021. The results indicate that both BIT and RTA independently exert positive impacts on Serbia’s inward FDI. Also, the interaction effects between BIT and RTA dummies and export/import variables on inward FDI are positive. This suggests that the implementation of BITs and/or RTAs fosters a complementary relationship between trade and FDI in Serbia as the predominant type of FDIs from partner states with which Serbia shares BITs and/or RTAs is vertical and export-platform rather than horizontal.

In the Russian economy, foreign direct investments (FDI) are distributed very unevenly between the regions. This inequality is caused by differences in the regions’ economic characteristics, as well as by varying effectiveness of regional policies to attract FDI. The assessment of a region’s potential to attract FDI could serve as a guide for analysing the ...

Exports, trade costs and FDI entry: evidence from Japanese firms
Deseatnicov I., Kucheryavyy K., Fukao K., Transnational Corporations 2021 Vol. 28 No. 3 P. 1–34
Why does aggregate foreign direct investment (FDI) fall with distance? We conjecture that high trade costs adversely affect FDI entry decisions in a dynamic setting, even when controlling for previous export experience in foreign markets. We test this hypothesis using Japanese firm-level data for the period of 1995–2018 and find that the probability of FDI ...
