Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to FDI and economic growth in developing countries. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, including research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, variables measurement, and data analysis techniques. The chapter also discusses the theoretical framework that will guide the research study. Chapter Four presents a detailed discussion of the research findings based on the analysis of the data collected. The chapter explores the impact of FDI on economic growth indicators and examines the factors that influence the relationship between FDI and economic growth in developing countries. Chapter Five concludes the research study by summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications of the results, and providing recommendations for policymakers, investors, and other stakeholders.
