1. Concept and classification of investment 
Build a house for family to live in: not investment 
Build a house for rent: investment    Concepts:   
- "The sacrifice of current consumption to increase future consumption" -  Samuelson & Nordhaus   Vietnam investment law 2014: 
"Investment means the investor's spending in business activities through 
establishing of (an) economic organization(s); investing through capital 
contribution, purchasing shares or capital contributions of economic 
organizations; Investing in the form of contracts or executing investment  projects" 
- Macro-approach: Capital formation accumulation 
"Investment is the output accumulated to increase production capacity in the later 
period of the economy" - Sachs and Larain (1993) 
» Private investment (I): equipment, factory, new office, inventory 
» Government investment (G): government spending, government expenditure 
or periodic government payments to supply public goods 
- Current expenditure for higher future benefit (expectation):      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
 Private investment: profit, sales, market share 
 Public investment: economic-social efficiency (employment, new asset, 
tax or income distribution...) 
Conclusion: Investment is the use of capital to gain profits and/or  socioeconomic benefits 
• Are buying lottery, personal savings deposits development investment? Please  explain No    Classification   
• Based on the nature of object invested (for international) 
- Fixed capital formation (new factories, machineries etc.) 
- Financial assets: share, corporate and government bonds, 
- Intangible assets: intellectual assets 
• Based on the features of investment scale (Article 7-10 in Law of PublicInvestment  2014) (for Vietnam)  - National important Projects  - Projects in group A, B, C 
• Based on sector of investment: Investment in business operation, investment  inTech/R&D etc. 
• Based on the feature of investment target: 
- Basic investment to reproduce fixed assets - Operational investment to create  current assets 
• Based on investment for social reproduction process:  - Investment for commerce  - Investment for Production 
• Based on the time of investment: short-term and long-term investment 
• Based on the relationship among investors: 
- Indirect investment: Investors do not supervise, manage the projects 
- Direct investment: Investors supervise and manage the projects o M&A: not 
new asset formation, only transferring ownership among investors 
o Investment for development: new asset formation for the economy      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
• The result of investment for development 
- Increasing tangible assets: factories, equipments, etc. 
- Increasing intellectual capital: expertise 
- Increasing intangible assets; copyright, trademarks 
• Based on the national scale  - 
Investment by domestic capital  - 
Investment by foreign capital Objectives of Investment  • For investors:  - 
Private investor: Profit, market share, development etc.  - 
State agencies: profit and social-economic targets (collect tax, create  jobs)  • For the government:  - 
Economic targets: collect tax improve budget  - 
Social targets: improve hr quality, create added value to the society  - 
Environmental targets: gov don’t want to do this bc too costly  Features 
- Capital: Tangible and intangible 
- Profitability: the main target 
- Risk: investment may be implemented in long term  - Time duration 
- Being implemented via the formation of projects 
Return of individual investment  1. Profit from business 
2. Profit from hiring property  3. Income from copyright 
4. Return from financial assets: put money in bank, get interest  5. Income from KOL 
2. Impacts of investment for development on economics growth and  development  ΣIncome = ΣΕxpenditure      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065 Y=C+I+G+X-M 
•Domestic expenditure: A = C+I+G  • Trade balance: NX=X-M=Y-A  • Y=C+SP+T=> I+G+X-M=S+T  • NX-X-M=(SP-I) + (T-G)  • I=SP+ (T-G)-NX  • Implications??? 
• Investment depends on both private and public sectors 
• The increase in government spending will reduce private investment 
 crowding out (thoái lùi đầu tư tư nhân)

TÌNH HÌNH VẬN DỤNG CÔNG CỤ QUẢN LÝ KINH TẾ 
• Kinh tế Việt Nam giai đoạn 2000-2012: Bất ổn từ chính sách vĩ mô không  phùhợp 
• Bất ổn KT vĩ mô được đo bằng: 
• Tăng trưởng, lạm phát, thâm hụt ngân sách, thâm hụt CA và dự trữ ngoạihối 
• Chỉ số bất ổn kinh tế vĩ mô (MII) của Ismihan (2002) được tính bằng cáchlấy 
bình quân gia quyền không trọng số của tỷ lệ lạm phát, tỷ lệ THNS/GNP, tỷ 
lệ nợ nước ngoài/GNP và biến động của TGHĐ. 
• Chỉ số bất ổn kinh tế vĩ mô (mi) của Jaramillo (2007) được dựa trên bốn 
chỉsố kinh tế vĩ mô: biến động của lạm phát và tỷ giá hối đoái, tỷ lệ tích lũy 
dự trữ so với tiền cơ sở và tỷ lệ THNS/GDP. 
• CSTT và ảnh hưởng đến lạm phát CSTT 
• Mở rộng được duy trì liên tục trong giai đoạn 2003 – 2007. 
• Tăng trưởng cung tiền và tin dụng liên tục cao và cao nhất vào năm 2007;các 
mức lãi suất khá ổn định ở mức dưới 8,25% 
• Kích thích SX, tiêu dùng và tăng trưởng KT 
• Đầu cơ vào chứng khoán và BĐS tăng cao 
• Thu hút FDI vào BĐS, vốn chảy vào thị trường chứng khoán tăng mạnh      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
• Hậu quả: bong bóng nhà đất, chứng khoán* Đầu năm 2008, thực hiện thắt  chặt tiền tệ: 
• Tăng tỷ lệ DTBB (dữ trữ bắt buộc) thêm 1%,; (ii) phát hành tín phiếu bắtbuộc 
20,300 tỷ đồng cho các NHTM; (iii) khống chế tổng dư nợ cho vay, chiết 
khấu giấy tờ có giả đề đầu tư kinh doanh chứng khoán không vượt 20% vốn 
điều lệ của TCTD, nâng hệ số rủi ro đối với cho vay bất động sản và cho vay 
đầu tư kinh doanh chứng khoán lên 250% -> cú sốc lớn đối với nhà đầu tư, 
đẩy giá cả hai thị trường vào trạng thái rơi tự do; tại thị trường tiền tệ: thiếu 
thanh khoản, lãi suất tăng mạnh 
• Cuối năm: NHNN giảm nhẹ lãi suất điều hành, điều chỉnh giảm tỉ lệ DTBB  • Năm 2009: 
• Thực hiện gói kích cầu 
• NHNN điều hành CSTT linh hoạt, hướng dẫn NHTM cho vay theo lãi  suấtthỏa thuận 
• Mục đích: giảm mặt bằng lãi suất, tạo điều kiện cho doanh nghiệp tiếp cậnvới 
nguồn vốn với chi phí rẻ.  • Năm 2010: 
• Nửa năm đầu: theo đuổi mục tiêu chống lạm phát → hạn chế cung tiền, 
lạmphát được kiểm soát tốt đến 8/2010 nhưng tăng trưởng chỉ đạt 5,57% <  6,5% theo mục tiêu 
Áp lực tăng trưởng: NHNN tiến hành điều chỉnh chính sách nửa sau năm  2010 
Kết hợp với Hiệp hội ngân hàng hạ một bằng lãi suất cho vay 
* Tài cấp vốn 10.000 tỉ cho Vietin Bank và Agribank → cung tiền tăng, lạm  phát tăng trở lại 
• Chính sách tiền tệ lại thất chặt tăng thì suất cơ bản lên 9%/năm vào đầutháng 
11 (10 tháng đầu năm là 8%) → các ngân hàng TM gặp khó khăn trong thanh  khoản 
• Năm 2011: kiên định chống lạm phát từ đầu năm 
• Khống chế lãi suất huy động có kỳ hạn dưới 14%      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
• liên tục tăng các lãi suất điều hành; tăng lãi suất tái cấp vốn từ 7%-12%• 
Thực hiện các biện pháp kiểm soát hoạt động cho vay đối với lĩnh vực phi 
sản xuất • tác động: 
• Cả doanh ship gi khi khăn do thi xuất cho vay cao vượt quá khảnăng chịu 
động của doanh nghiệp bằng thì khi ăn, chỉ số rằng ngay gần th 
• TICK và thị trang bất động sản đồng bằng 
• Tỷ lệ nợ xấu tăng trên toàn hệ thống (nhóm nợ phải điều chỉnh cơcấu tín 
dụng theo ngành) – hệ quả của thời kỳ tăng trưởng tín dụng quá nóng gđ 
2001 – 2007 và 2008 và điều chỉnh cơ cấu tín dụng năm 2011,  • Năm 2012: 
• Lãi suất điều hành giảm, cung tiền tăng nhưng trái ngược với những biểuhiện 
mở rộng chính sách tiền tệ này là tốc độ tăng trưởng tín dụng giảm → Bẫy  thanh khoản  • Nhận xét: 
- Tần suất xuất hiện các quyết định quá dày khiến các đối tượng bị điều chỉnh 
bị động trong thực thi. 
- CSTT chống lạm phát trong thời gian qua đã chưa tính toán được liều lượng  vừa đủ, 
- Thiếu nhất quán trong thực hiện mục tiêu chính sách; tăng trưởng hay ổn định  giá cả? 
- Mục tiêu không nhất quán, chỉ dừng ở mục tiêu hàng năm, không có mục tiêu  dài hạn 
- Các chính sách mang tính hành chính; qui định trần lãi suất... đối phó với lạm  phát 
- Áp dụng biện pháp hành chính làm méo thị trường: qui định trần lãi suất dẫn 
tới một số thời điểm cuối năm 2008, 2011 người gửi tiền nhận lãi suất thực âm 
(lãi danh nghĩa nhỏ hơn lạm phát), 
- Chính sách đưa ra không đúng liều lượng, mang tính thử nghiệm.      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
a. Economic growth and measures 
• Economic growth is the increase in output produced by an economy in a  givenperiod.  Or 
• Economic growth is the increase in the value of commodity and service producedby  an economy in a given period 
• GDP-Gross Domestic Product. is a monetary measure of the market value of allthe 
final goods and services produced and sold in a specific time period by a country. 
• GNI: is product produced by enterprises owned by a country's citizens 
PPPs: the rates of currency conversion that equalize the purchasing power of different 
currencies by eliminating the differences in price levels between countries.  GDP or GNI per capita.   
gp= gt - population growth rate in year t 
• Nominal GDP: the value of output measured by current price 
• Real GDP: the value of output measured by constant price  • Economic development: 
"A process of creating and utilizing physical, human, financial, and social 
assets to generate improved and broadly shared economic well-being and 
quality of life for a community or region"-Karl Seidman      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
"Broadly based and sustainable increase in the overall standard of living for 
individuals within a community" - Daphne Greenwood & Richard Holt - 
Including both qualitative and quantitative indicators:  - Economic growth 
- HDI: healthcare, education (general education and higher education)  - Environmental issues    b. Invesment theories        lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065 Capital: stock 
Invesment: flow (dau tu vao tung nam) 
(K= total I – Depreciation tung nam)    1. 0,4  2. 5,4% 
Application to economic forecast  - Economic growth rate 
- Demand for investment capital (FDI, borrow from international market, 
negotiate with inter org to borrow money) 
 Gov play imp role in balancing btw growth rate and D for investment 
Classical, Neo-classical and New theories  • Mercantilist  • A.Smith ideas  • Ricardo doctrine 
• Solow growth model and exogenous theory  • Endogenous theory  • Investment multiplier  • Investment accelerator      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065 Classical theories 
*For the mercantilists: 
• The national output was measured by the supply of money generated, in terms  ofgold 
• The government should encourage business people to increase export and 
reduceimports. (establish colonies) 
• The goal of these policies was, supposedly, to achieve a "favorable" balance oftrade 
that would bring gold and silver into the country and also to maintain domestic  employment. 
• The relationship between the government and merchants was rather complicated. 
- Governments levied tax for armies and battles among capitalist nations. 
- Merchants needed the guarantee of government to protect them against  competition 
*A. Smith-The Wealth of Nation 
• Free trade benefits both parties 
• The collusive relationship between government and industry was harmful to  thegeneral population 
• Three aspects that correlate the division of labor with the increase in 
productivity,finally improve economic growth: 
• Capital accumulation contributes to the expansion of the market: labor isequipped 
to perform specialized actions and wages can increase above the subsistence level 
with more capital • The increase in the number of worker 
• The increase in efficiency of the workers; 
• Capital accumulation depends on the allocation between consumption 
andinvestment: investment should be directed towards productive activities 
• The manufacturing sector was a generator of surplus and played a major 
role,although agriculture was still of vital importance 
Salary: employers pay employees      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
Living wages: employers consider a lot of aspects in daily life, sal support not ony 
you but other mem in your familiy *Ricardo doctrine: 
• Economic growth depends on capital accumulation which eventually relies 
onreinvestment of profit. But profit earned by capitalist depends on the growth of  agricultural output. 
• Unluckily, agricultural output faced diminishing return: food price increasing ledto 
grade up salary that harmed profit of entrepreneurs: 
Income division: land rent + wages + profit 
• Wages were determined by minimum subsistence level of the workers 
• Industrial sector pursued constant return: stock of fixed capital plays an 
importantrole in the growth of output and employment, which are constrained by 
the operation of diminishing returns in agriculture.  *Solow model:  Assumptions:  • There is full employment. 
• Two production factors: labor and capital 
• All capital and labor are utilized in production 
• Capital is subject to diminishing returns in a closed economy(no cap and  laborexport) 
• (Net) Capital accumulation = saving accumulation - depreciation 
• The economy is in a position of minimal capital stock 
• Consumption increase in association with capital increase until steady  state(saturated consumption)      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065

Don’t depend on Resources (not good for longterm, dẫn đến tham nhũng) 
Use technology to break down steady state point, for longterm growth    Contributions:  • 
The role of saving on economic growth  • 
Investment does foster growth in long run (steady state) Limitations:  •  Only 2 production factors      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065 • 
Only supply side Implications:  • 
Capital is the constraint of growth  • 
Investment in Tech is to avoid the diminishing return of capital  • 
Tech can foster growth in long run and facilitate to accumulate more  capital  *New growth theories  Endogenous growth theories  • Tech is endogenous 
• Intellectual capital is public goods (neither competition nor exclusion) 
• Intellectual capital creates spillover effect o Romer (1990), "Endogenous 
Technological Change": output has correlation with capital, labor and  knowledge. 
o Investment into education and training can improve knowledge. 
• Increasing marginal product of capital: 
o Lucas (1988), "On the Mechanics of Economic Development": human 
capital is subject to increasing marginal product of capital, and growth 
depends on each type of investment. 
o Capital accumulation depends on income and income growth rate o 
Various growth rates among countries thanks to policy and institution  differentiations 
CHAPTER 3: INVESTMENT RESOURCES 
1. Concepts and nature of investment resources Concepts 
• Capital is the accumulation in terms of value for investment to adapt the 
requirements of social development 
• Investment resources are capital mobilization and distribution for investment 
to adapt the requirements of social development      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065 Nature 
• Smith: savings is direct source for capital acceleration. Labor creates products 
for saving acceleration to improve investment 
• Marx: new value created must be higher than products made in the sector 
producing consumer products → promoting production materials and saving  in both sectors.          lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065  
2. Classification of investment resources  At national scale 
• Domestic investment capital 
• Foreign investment capital At corporate level 
• Internal investment capital 
• External investment capital  *Domestics  invenstment  capital 
Government investment capital:  • State budget capital; 
• State credit for development investment; Investment capital of SOEs. 
Private investment capital resources:  • Personal savings; 
• Accumulation of businesses: cooperatives, private companies, etc.      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) 
• FDI: an incorporated or unincorporated enterprise in which a foreign 
investorowns 10 per cent or more of the ordinary shares or voting power of 
an incorporated enterprise or the equivalent of an unincorporated enterprise  - IMF  • Characteristics: 
• Mainly implemented by private sector for profit-seeking purpose 
• Minimum requirement of capital contribution for foreign investors 
• Self-decision making by foreign investors 
•Technology transfer (a part) 
Foreign portfolio investment  Concept: 
- FPI: involves an investor purchasing foreign financial assets without direct 
ownership of organization's assets.  Nature: 
• No direct control on the project 
• Profit-seeking target and risk diversification 
• High liquidity of financial assets 
• Enhancement of financial market through rewarding superior performance, 
prospects, and corporate governance 
Intrenational private loan 
Is an importantly internatinal investment Characteristics:  • Currency  • Credit period  • Interest rate 
• Collateral or security for the credit to guarantee the interests of lenders 
• The income of lenders: agreed interest      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
Official development assistance (ODA)  • Concept 
Official development assistance (ODA) flows to countries and territories on the DAC 
List of ODA Recipients and to multilateral development institutions are: 
i. Provided by official agencies, including state and local governments, or by their 
executive agencies; and ii. Concessional (i.e. grants and soft loans) and administered 
with the promotion of the economic development and welfare of developing countries  as the main objective. 
The DAC list of countries eligible to receive ODA is updated every three years and 
is based on per capita income Millitary aid and promotion of donors' security interests  are not ODA,  • Characteristics 
• Donated by governmental offices (central and local) or their governing bodies; 
• Enhancing economic growth and improving welfare for developing countries; 
• Concessional provisions and non-refundable level up to over 25%    Opinions on ODA: 
• Optimistic approach: the positive aspects of ODA for social-economic 
development in the poor - Jeffey Sachs (2005): the developed countries should      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
double ODA support for the poor in the next decades to promote economic  growth in these countries 
• Practical approach: the rich only grants ODA for the poor with sound macro 
economic policies (appropriate monetary, commercial and fiscal policies) 
Bunside & Dollar (2000): emphasize on the aid efficiency to build an efficient  aid market 
• Pessimistic approach: aid may not be for the poor and create corruption; the 
instable and uncertain donation affect seriously on the recipients - Easterly 
(2006): undemocratic management and corruption in the recipient countries  At corporate level  Internal capital resource 
• Corporate accumulation (initial investment, retained income) and yearly  depreciation 
• Advantages: reduction of credit risk, autonomy in business 
• Disadvantages: constraint of investment scale External capital resource 
• Credit: provided by financial intermediate or direct financing (stock market) 
• Advantages: diversified financial resources for investment 
• Disadvantages: Risk, constraint in business 
Conditions for effective mobilization of investment capital resources 
• Sustainable economic growth 
• Macro-economic stability or sound macro-economic policy 
• Building Effective capital mobilization policies 
 Nature: forming sound business environment to mobilize resources for investment      lOMoAR cPSD| 58540065
