Abstract

Development economists have long argued that countries pursuing externally oriented development strategies are more likely to achieve higher rates of economic growth than those that are internally focused. A number of studies have examined the relationship between inward FDI and economic growth in the developing host countries.1 A generally accepted conclusion is that FDI has played a significant role in promoting economic growth in host countries because FDI represents ‘the transmission to the host country of a package of capital, managerial skills, and technical skills’ (Johnson, 1972, p. 2). An interesting finding of previous studies is that the economic and technological conditions of a recipient economy influence the extent to which FDI contributes to growth.
