Abstract
Abstract:Foreign direct investment (FDI) is frequently viewed as a fundamental component in any nation's given mission for economic development. There is slight uncertainty that the growth of Chinese trade and investment with developing and underdeveloped African states has furnished these countries with a supreme chance to rejuvenate their economies. This study reviewed driving factors of Chinese FDI to African economies utilizing a panel data from 1980- 2016. Results showed that factors showing the determinants of FDI inflows have positive influence on development of West African and Monetary Unions economies. In particular components like trade openness, macroeconomic condition, infrastructural improvement and market size have significantly positive and noteworthy impact on FDI inflows to African economies. Keywords: Foreign direct investment, China’s OFDI, WAMU Countries, VECM Approach.
