Journal Title: Advance Knowledge for Executives - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: This study explains the adoption of foreign direct investment (FDI) as Malaysia's competitive advantage. Methods: This study employed a qualitative review study and utilized content analysis for data analysis. The papers were selected by purposive sampling based on reliable sources from Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus databases in 2014-2024. Results: A growing rivalry exists to draw foreign direct investment (FDI) globally. This competition is driven by the potential benefits of FDI on the host country's economy, including changes in market structures, employment opportunities, and technological knowledge transfers. Additionally, FDI can help firms gain a competitive edge, increasing investor returns. It is very interested in the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in economic growth for decades, as academics and politicians have generally recognized the benefits of this investment. Foreign direct investment is one of the main forces influencing Malaysia's economic growth. The Investment Incentives Act of 1968 and special economic zones established by the Malaysian government since the 1970s, along with a stable financial system, macroeconomic conditions, and economic expansion, have all made Malaysia an appealing destination for foreign direct investment. Conclusion and Recommendation: The paper provides the essentials of FDI for developing an inclusive future investigation. This approach can be considered to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the subject matter of FDI. However, qualitative interviews and questionnaires are recommended for further studies.
