Innovation is not only about inputs, however. A region’s economy must translate these inputs into productive outcomes: employment in high-technology firms, greater output per worker, the creation of patents, to name a few. By examining the output indicators, one can explore how well your economy converts innovation inputs into performance. Because the index is not dealing with simple linear relationships, there is no direct cause-and-effect connection between inputs and outputs. The innovation index is designed to show the innovation process more clearly. The tool, in general, lets the practitioner explore innovation within your region by guiding questions and conversations. | TURKISH ECONOMIC ASSOCIATION DISCUSSION PAPER 2008 5 http www.tek. org.tr DOES GROWTH QUALITY OF CAPITAL MARKETS dRiVE foreign CAPITAL Juan P.

We then interact both the stock market variables with financial and regulatory reforms variables only to find much stronger results. The coefficients proved to be higher than other variables suggesting that higher reforms in capital markets could increase firm level FDI. Moreover the results are found to be extremely robust when we replace stock market variables with squared values of the same reiterating the fact that larger is the growth greater is the inflow of firm level FDI in the form of cross border Mergers Acquisitions.
