Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we investigate the changes in local content requirement (LCR) and exchange rate volatility on an international oligopolistic market in a foreign country that accepts affiliate firms through FDI. We derive a Cournot equilibrium of the oligopolistic foreign market, in which affiliate firms compete with the foreign firms under foreign exchange rate risk for when the number of affiliates is either exogenous or endogenous. In the former, we show the affiliates expand their outputs and the ex-post expected profits of the affiliates decrease but their ex-ante certainty equivalent of expected profits increases with the volatility of the exchange rate when the relative risk averse is not so strong at equilibrium. In the latter, we show LCR tightening always accelerates the exit of the affiliates from the market and if the relative risk averse of the parent firms is not so strong, the entry of affiliates onto the foreign market can be urged as the risk of exchange rate increases.
