Abstract

15. Oni Samuel and Joshua, Segun (2013) “” The increasing intense and fierce competition for FDI among nations resulting from the recent global economic downturn has insinuated governance reforms by many countries, especially the developing economies so as to improve their investment environment and hence FDI inflow. While empirical investigations exist on the importance of economic governance on FDI inflow, mixed empirical results and contradictory views continue to trail the relationship between political governance and FDI. With a critical examination of the indicators of political governance, this paper reveals that the more favourable the political governance of a country is, the more likely such country is able to attract investments and hence FDI. Public institutional reform, such that will guarantee effectiveness, efficiency and transparency is therefore advocated.
