Factors Determining Foreign Direct Investment Inflow to Nigeria during Pre-Financial Crisis: An Empirical Investigation
Abstract
This chapter empirically investigates the determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) to Nigeria during pre-financial crisis period 1970-2006. This study suggests that the endowment of natural resources, trade intensity, macroeconomic risk factors like inflation and exchange rates are significant determinants of FDI flow to Nigeria. The findings also suggest that in long run market size is not the significant factor for attracting FDI to Nigeria, it contradicts the existing literature. The author's results indicate that FDI flow to Nigeria is resource-seeking FDI. Results also suggest that trading partner like the UK in North-South (N - S) and China in South-South (S - S) trade relation have strong influence on Nigeria's natural resource outflow.
