Abstract

Impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on economic growth varies across economies. The strength and pattern of impact depend on the nature of FDI (green-field versus M&A) as well as country-specific issues (such as domestic investment, inflation, infrastructure, external trade, among others). The characteristics of these factors could even change the role of FDI on economic growth. Thus, exploring the nature of FDI inflow as well as the identification and measurement of these country-specific factors is important. It will contribute further towards informed policy formulation to obtain the desired benefits of FDI. Using panel data, this study offers a holistic assessment of FDI-economic growth dynamics for South Asian countries.
