Abstract

The purpose of this research is to identify the determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Malaysia by using annual data from year 1979 until year 2018. Multiple linear regression model is regressed using E-View to study the factors (exchange rate, GDP, inflation rate, market size) affecting FDI in Malaysia Empirical results show that inflation rate and GDP have significant impact on FDI in Malaysia while exchange rate does not have significant impact on FDI in Malaysia. Throughout the analysis process, Ordinary Least Square model is adopted in this study.
