Project Abstract

Abstract
This research study investigates the impact of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on economic growth in developing countries. As globalization continues to reshape the world economy, FDI has emerged as a key driver of economic development, particularly in developing countries. The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between FDI inflows and economic growth in a selection of developing countries, with a focus on identifying the key determinants and mechanisms through which FDI influences economic growth. The research begins with an introduction providing an overview of the importance of FDI in the context of developing countries and the rationale for conducting this study. The background of the study highlights the historical trends and patterns of FDI in developing countries, setting the stage for an in-depth analysis of its impact on economic growth. The problem statement addresses the gaps in existing literature and the need to further explore the specific mechanisms through which FDI affects economic growth in developing countries. The objectives of the study include examining the relationship between FDI inflows and economic growth, identifying the key determinants that influence this relationship, and assessing the sectoral impact of FDI on economic growth in developing countries. The limitations of the study are also discussed, acknowledging the challenges and constraints faced in conducting empirical research on this topic. The scope of the study focuses on a selection of developing countries, with a comparative analysis of their FDI inflows and economic growth performance. The significance of the study lies in its potential to contribute to the existing body of literature on FDI and economic growth, providing valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and researchers interested in understanding the role of FDI in driving economic development in developing countries. The structure of the research outlines the organization of the study, with Chapter 2 presenting a comprehensive literature review on FDI and economic growth, Chapter 3 detailing the research methodology, Chapter 4 discussing the findings of the study, and Chapter 5 providing a conclusion and summary of the research. Overall, this research study aims to deepen our understanding of the impact of FDI on economic growth in developing countries, shedding light on the opportunities and challenges associated with attracting and leveraging FDI for sustainable development. By examining the specific mechanisms through which FDI influences economic growth, this study seeks to provide valuable insights that can inform policy decisions and promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth in developing countries.
