Scientific Study from the year 2018 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, , language: English, abstract: The controversy surrounding the impact of FDI and non-oil exports on economic growth and the dynamic interactions of these economic variables in Nigeria motivated this study. Empirical studies have found divergent views on the effect of FDI and non-oil exports on economic growth in the country. However, in achieving the objectives of this study, the author employed the dynamic OLS and VARS modeling to analyze the relationship between FDI, non-oil exports and economic growth in Nigeria during the period of 1980 to 2016. In testing for the time series properties, the evidence from estimated economic models suggests that all the variables examined are stationary at first difference I(Is) using the Augmented Dickey- Fuller (ADF) and Phillips-Perron. Also, Johansen Co integration test reveals that the variables are co integrated which confirms the existence of long-run equilibrium relationship among the variables. The study reveals that the impact of FDI on the economic growth was significant and as a unit increase in FDI impacted positively by 64% on the productive capacity of goods and services in Nigeria during the period. Meanwhile, reverse is the case for non-oil exports. In addition, the interactions among FDI, nonoil exports and economic growth appear very weak and do not follow a predictable pattern in Nigeria: that foreign direct investment should lead to improvement in non-oil exports and eventually expand the frontier of economic growth. This suggests that there are some structural rigidities in the economy that are preventing the impact of non-oil exports from being fully felt by the economy, particularly through economic growth channel. This further reinforces the presence of some institutional factors that create inherent problems in the economy that could frustrate any valid and sincere investment policies formulated by the government. Therefore, the study recommends that the policy makers need to create friendly economic policies and business environment that will boost further attraction of FDI into all sectors of the economy and the economy must be diversified as well towards non-oil sector in order to ensure maximum contributions from this sector to economic growth of Nigeria in the nearest future.

Developing countries, Nigeria inclusive, face a shortage of investible funds and hence strive to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) because of its acknowledged potentials as a tool of economic development. This study investigated the empirical relationship between FDI and economic growth in Nigeria. Secondary data sourced mainly from CBN publications were used in the OLS and granger causality regression equations conducted for the period 1986 to 2010. Although FDI coefficient in the regression result showed that about 13% of variations in GDP are accounted for by a percent increase in FDI, their relationship is statistically insignificant. The regression result also showed that other variables in the model - gross fixed capital formation (GFCF), net exports (NXP), consumer price index (CPI), and exchange rate (EXR) - impacted on the GDP. The result of the granger causality test showed a bi-directional causality between FDI and GDP, that is, each granger cause the other. On the basis of these, it was recommended that more sectors of the economy be deregulated so as to encourage more investor participation in the productive sector of the economy.

The increasing role of the inflow of foreign direct investment into an economy as it increasingly integrates itself into the global economy cannot be overemphasized as far as the benefits and costs of foreign direct investment is concerned. In this study the case of the Dutch disease is considered in the Nigerian economy with foreign direct investment being investigated for its role in the economically devastating phenomenon. This paper adopts the causality methodology - which involves the Granger causality test, the Granger-Hsiao test and the Toda-Yamamoto test for causality - in evaluating the relationship between foreign direct investment on one side and the nominal effective exchange rate, the consumer price index and the non-oil exports. According to the findings the significant causality runs from foreign direct investment to the nominal effective exchange rate, consumer price index and non-oil exports of the Nigerian economy played a positive role in non-oil exports. It was found to engender inflationary trends and appreciate the nominal effective exchange rate though insignificantly.

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, , course: Public Administration, language: English, abstract: The study examined foreign direct investment (FDI): a panacea to national economic development. The objectives set for the study are; to determine the causes of the Nigerian economic downturn, to ascertain the effects of foreign direct investment, to suggest measures that would be taken to accelerate the economic development of Nigeria. Primary and secondary data were used; the population of the study was 1200 from which the sample sizes of 400 were determined using Taro Yamani’s formula. The research instruments used were questionnaire and oral interview. The reliability of the research instruments was tested using Pearson Product moment correlation coefficient; the result gave a reliability index of 0.98 indicating a high degree of consistency. Chi-square and ANOVA approach were the statistical tools used. The findings from the study reveals that, decline in oil prices and revenue, increase government expenditure and decline in market indices are the challenges posed by economic downturn in Nigeria; consumption-based economy, poor savings, high credit culture and huge financial outflow are the causes of the economic crises in Nigeria; reduction in direct foreign investment and overseas development assistance are the effects of economic crisis to Nigeria and finally, diversification of the economy, robust regulatory policies and professional supervision to aid foreign direct investment in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the researcher made the following recommendation: Nigeria should adopt tough policy measures as effective strategies towards a comprehensive strengthening of the economy, government should ensure that policy recommendations are implemented in order to reposition the Nigerian economy against the impact of future economic downturn, government should create enabling environment to attract foreign investors in order to boost economic activities in the country. Finally, government needs to sincerely focus on developing/strengthening the economy and provide alternative sources of revenue on a sustained basis.

This is strictly an examination of the effect of non-oil export on economic growth of Nigeria. The basic aim is to examine the trend and composition of the non-oil export in Nigeria and investigate the extent of the contribution of non-oil export sector to the Nigerian economy. The study generate serious academic interest in evolving new methods and strategies needed in developing non-oil exports for higher productivity and efficient performance which in the long run will result to economic growth and development. Hence it evaluates the federal government incentives and schemes in promoting non-oil export trade promotion in Nigeria with focus on the immense derivable benefits from engaging in non-oil export and the resulting economic growth in Nigeria at aggregate level which are associated with the current international trends in global trade liberation. Virtually all the nations' foreign exchange was obtained from the exportation of oil products due to the economic boom in 1970s. Thus, it is pertinent in this study to discuss the causes and consequences of the neglect of the non-oil export in detail as well as trend examined since 1970 in order to note its growth.

This book constitutes a critical review of Nigeria’s attempts to achieve rapid industrial development since independence from Britain in 1960. It details the issues, challenges, and hard choices confronted by Nigerian political leadership and highlights the reasons why the country ultimately failed to achieve industrial take-off in spite of its abundant human and material resources. Chapters take a retrospective look at government industrial development policies and programs, including the steel industry, agro-allied and forest-based industries, and the industrial estate development program. The book also discusses tariff and trade policies, incentives and disincentives to foreign direct investment (FDI) in the manufacturing sector, and small and medium enterprise (SME) development. The book concludes with a look at the recent drive towards regional integration as well as the potential impact of the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) between the European Union and sixteen countries of West Africa. Providing an exhaustive history of Nigeria’s economic and industrial development, this volume will be of interest to researchers and students of African economics, development studies, and industrial organization, as well as policy makers in both the public and private sectors.

Public hue and cry about Nigeria's overdependence on oil has now faded into an inaudible whisper and a mere rhetoric as diversification of the Nigerian economy still remains an unsettled issue. However, the dwindling international oil price has rendered the country insolvent thereby creating a need to exploit non-oil sources. Therefore, the study was aimed at devising a viable non-oil export-led growth policy. Study covered the period 1980 to 2014. Data were sourced from Central Bank of Nigeria, National Bureau of Statistics and World Development Indicators. This study revealed a preferred choice for a more robust factor analytic model to isolate potent factors influencing non-oil export-growth nexus in Nigeria. Results indicate that there was positive significant relationship between non-oil export and growth in Nigeria which was solely attributable to the influence of foreign direct investment and trade liberalization. Moreover, the study revealed that the active variables in the constellation of foreign direct investment and trade liberalization provided the theoretical constructs for a new non-oil export-led growth policy. It was concluded that a viable non-oil export-led growth policy should comprise of such policy instruments as budgetary policy, exchange rate policy, human resource development policy, credit policy, and import substitution/export promotion policy. It was recommended, inter alia, that petroleum exporting countries should channel foreign direct investment to non-oil sectors in order to render the sectors viable and so augment their productive bases.

Nigeria's political economy has straddled the ideological divide between socialism and capitalism. The country produces oil, and at some point in its existence, it embarked on robust state involvement in the economy. This was marked by the acquisition, or establishment, of numerous state enterprises. Over the years, the performance of these enterprises was found to be dismal, and as part of the overall reform of the economy, Nigeria has joined the global trend toward reduction in direct state ownership of enterprises. Indeed, it has embarked on massive divestment of state interests in once publicly owned firms. Besides the universal rationale of efficiency, one of the objectives of the privatization exercise in Nigeria is the attraction and retention of foreign investments. This work examines the direct and indirect linkage between the government's divestiture of its interests in firms, on the one hand, and foreign investments in the country, on the other hand. The book is divided into seven chapters. Chapter 1 reviews the political and economic history of Nigeria, to set the background and context that necessitated the introduction of the reform package of which privatization is just an aspect. Chapter 2 is a discussion of various natures of state involvement in an economy. This ranges from mere regulation to active participation. The chapter discusses the competing conceptual and ideological theories and tries to situate the Nigerian experience within the broader conceptual dichotomies of capitalism, socialism and the via media of mixed economy. Chapter 3 is an examination of the meaning and rationales for privatization of state owned enterprises generally and the Nigerian attempts in particular. Nigeria's privatization program is an ongoing exercise. Yet two distinct attempts are identifiable: one which started in 1988 and the reinvigoration of the exercise, albeit with new constitutive frameworks, in 1999. Thus, Chapters 4 and 5 review the legal and institutional frameworks for these two exercises. Chapter 6 deals with foreign investments in Nigeria. The discussion encapsulates the pros and cons of foreign investments, especially in Nigeria. Chapter 7 explores the direct and indirect linkages between the privatization program in Nigeria and foreign investments in the country. This is particularly apposite because one of the touted objectives of the privatization exercise is the attraction of foreign investments. A conclusion follows. The work finds that although foreign investments appear to have been indirectly boosted by the privatization exercise, foreign investors initially did not show interest in direct acquisition of the shares and other interests being relinquished by the government, but that that attitude has been changing gradually.
