Advantages of FDI6

FDI usually flows as a bundle of resources including,

besides capital, production technology, organisational and

managerial skills

These skills tend to spill over to domestic enterprises in the

host country

FDI contributes more to the growth of the economy than

that of the domestic investments

Disadvantages of FDI7

Loss of ownership rights to a foreign company makes it a

cautious decision

The increased liquidity and the consequent inflation is due to

the excessive FDI inflow

It is being blamed for ousting the domestic inflows

It is also claimed to have lowered few regulatory standards in

terms of investment patterns
