Abstract

In this paper, authors explore the Foreign Direct Investment-Led Growth hypothesis for the Greek economy in the Post-War era. In doing so, they engage in testing the cointegration of the series and explore the causal dimension between Foreign Direct Investment and GDP growth through Granger Causality tests and VAR models. The empirical findings cast serious doubts on the FDI-led growth hypothesis permeating the existing academic literature.
