Project Abstract

Abstract
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has become a significant driver of economic growth for developing countries in recent decades. This research study investigates the impact of FDI on economic growth in developing countries, focusing on the mechanisms through which FDI influences economic development. The study employs a case study approach to analyze specific developing countries and understand the dynamics of FDI inflows and their effects on economic growth. The research begins with an introduction that provides background information on the topic of FDI and economic growth in developing countries. The problem statement highlights the importance of understanding how FDI can contribute to sustainable economic development in these regions. The objectives of the study are to examine the relationship between FDI and economic growth, identify the factors that attract FDI to developing countries, and assess the implications of FDI for local industries and employment. The literature review in this research covers ten key areas related to FDI and economic growth in developing countries. It explores existing theories and empirical studies that have examined the impact of FDI on various economic indicators such as GDP growth, employment rates, technological transfer, and productivity enhancement. The review also discusses the potential challenges and risks associated with FDI inflows, including issues related to governance, environmental sustainability, and income inequality. The research methodology section outlines the research design, data collection methods, and analytical techniques used in the study. It includes information on the selection of case study countries, data sources, and statistical models employed to analyze the relationship between FDI and economic growth. The methodology also addresses potential limitations and biases in the research process. The discussion of findings section presents a detailed analysis of the empirical results obtained from the study. It examines the patterns and trends of FDI inflows in developing countries, identifies the factors that drive FDI decisions, and assesses the impact of FDI on key economic indicators. The findings highlight the positive contributions of FDI to economic growth, such as job creation, technology transfer, and export expansion, while also discussing the challenges and risks associated with FDI dependency. The conclusion and summary section provide a comprehensive overview of the research findings and their implications for policy and practice in developing countries. It summarizes the key insights gained from the study, discusses the theoretical and practical implications of the research, and offers recommendations for policymakers, investors, and other stakeholders interested in promoting sustainable economic growth through FDI. In conclusion, this research study contributes to the existing literature on FDI and economic growth by providing a detailed analysis of the impact of FDI on developing countries. The findings suggest that FDI can play a crucial role in driving economic development in these regions, but effective policies and strategies are needed to maximize the benefits of FDI while mitigating potential risks and challenges.
