It then provides a background of the study, highlighting the importance of understanding the impact of FDI on economic growth. The problem statement identifies the gaps in existing literature and sets the research objectives to address these gaps. The limitations and scope of the study are also discussed, along with the significance of the research in contributing to the existing body of knowledge. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review that examines previous studies on the relationship between FDI and economic growth in developing countries. The review covers various theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence to provide a solid foundation for the research. Chapter 3 details the research methodology used in the study, including data collection methods, sample selection, and analytical techniques. The chapter also discusses the variables and models employed to analyze the impact of FDI on economic growth. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the study, highlighting the key factors that influence the relationship between FDI and economic growth in developing countries. The chapter explores the positive and negative impacts of FDI on economic growth and provides insights into the mechanisms through which FDI affects economic development.
