Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth: The Role of Corruption Control in North Africa

Journal Title: Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Studies - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 07

Abstract

This paper aims to study the interaction of corruption control in the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and economic growth in North African countries. To achieve this, econometric estimates were made using the Generalized Moments Method (GMM) in dynamic panel of the Five North African countries over the period from 1996 to 2019. The results obtained show that FDI combined with corruption control although having a positive sign has no effect on the economic growth of North Africa. In light of these results, recommendations have been made to make the fight against corruption in the FDI-economic growth relationship more effective, through decentralization, streamlining of administrative procedures and relaxation of tax regulations.
