Project Abstract

Abstract
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) plays a crucial role in shaping the economic landscape of developing countries. This research project aims to investigate the impact of FDI on economic growth in developing countries, with a focus on exploring the mechanisms through which FDI influences economic development. The study will employ a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis of macroeconomic data with qualitative insights from case studies of selected developing countries. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, presenting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definition of key terms. Chapter Two conducts a comprehensive literature review, examining existing theories and empirical studies on the relationship between FDI and economic growth in developing countries. The review will cover various perspectives on the potential benefits and challenges associated with FDI inflows. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and analytical frameworks to be used in the study. The chapter also discusses the potential limitations and ethical considerations of the research methodology. Chapter Four presents the findings of the study, analyzing the quantitative and qualitative data to identify the key drivers of FDI impact on economic growth in developing countries. The discussion in Chapter Four delves into the implications of the findings, highlighting the policy recommendations and strategies that can enhance the positive effects of FDI on economic growth. Finally, Chapter Five offers a conclusion and summary of the research project, summarizing the key findings, discussing the contributions to existing literature, and suggesting avenues for further research on the topic. Overall, this research project seeks to contribute to the understanding of how FDI can be leveraged to promote sustainable economic growth in developing countries. By shedding light on the mechanisms through which FDI impacts economic development, this study aims to provide valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and other stakeholders seeking to maximize the benefits of foreign investment for long-term prosperity in developing economies.
