Why is it important?
An increase in FDI and appreciation of exchange rate contracts tourism, while a decrease in FDI and depreciation of exchange rate expands tourism in the long run. Both FDI and exchange rate shows asymmetric behavior with tourism in the long run in South Asian countries.
Perspectives
