摘要
This research aim is to investigate Foreign Direct Investment (FID) complexity in less developed countries, highlighting the factors that affect FDI. Based on data collected for the period 2003-2019 an econometric model allows us to determine the relevance of traditional and non-traditional factors. We employ a panel regression, with both static and dynamic models and Granger causality. The findings reveal HDI and Governance have a significant relationship with FDI in both the static and dynamic models. The study's novelty relies both on the proposed composite governance index and the relationships identified between FDI and new factors relevant to the LDC context, such as the fertility, urbanisation, and governance that might be taken into consideration both by international organisations and national regulators and policy makers.
