Abstract

Research Summary

Book-length re-examination of foreign capital inflows in Pakistan using Vector Error-Correction methodology — overcoming limitations of previous OLS-based work to identify long-run co-integrating relationships between FDI, aid, external loans, and economic growth.

The topic of foreign capital inflows (FCI) to Pakistan has received substantial attention in the empirical literature, but existing work mostly relied on conventional econometric tools — OLS, 2SLS, FIML, and 3SLS — which do not account for the non-stationarity of macroeconomic variables. This book provides a systematic re-examination of the macroeconomic impacts of foreign capital inflows in Pakistan using the Vector Error-Correction (VEC) approach, which is capable of modelling long-run co-integrating relationships alongside short-run adjustment dynamics. The study covers FDI, external loans and credit, technical assistance, and project and non-project aid, providing a comprehensive analytical treatment of FCI-growth linkages for Pakistan over the period 1975–2004.
