| Abstract | The objective of this study is to see the effect of institutional factors on foreign Direct investment inflows (FDI) in the sample of twenty four Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries. This study uses panel data over the period of 1995-2015. The fixed-effect model after controlling for heteroscedasticity is used for empirical examination. The pragmatic result recommends that the countries can appeal more Foreign Direct Investment inflows if they improve their institutional factors despite lacking in a high level of human capital, trade openness and market size. However, the development of the country appears to have an equal significance as that of institutional factors and is significant at all levels in Latin American and Caribbean countries. |
