Abstract

This article seeks to depict the needs of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Bangladesh along with the required determinants of congenial investment environments. In terms of the identified determinants of FDI, this study delineates the competitive and inductive factors other FDI recipient countries have in comparison to that of Bangladesh. The study also identifies the determinants of FDI that Bangladesh have. Reasons of why Bangladesh could not attract enough FDI have also been sought. The feasible attractive measures required in attracting the much-needed investment in the competitive FDI market have also been shown. In doing this, international competitors of FDI have been traced to locate the position of Bangladesh. Secondary published data from governments and other significant agencies have been comprehensively studied to get the required data in completing the study.
