Industrial training report: Bank Simpanan Nasional. Special project: Determinants of FDI inflows in Malaysia / Mohd Muqriz Shazwan Shamsuddin

The FDI inflows in Malaysia has been steadily inclining for the past 20 years. The purpose of this study is to examine if the macroeconomic variables such as inflation rate, exchange rate, and infrastructure are the main contributing factors to boost FDI inflows in Malaysia. The method this study used is multiple regression, Pearson correlation, and t-test to find out the relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable. The study found out that inflation rate and infrastructure both have a positive and significant relationship with dependent variable which is FDI inflows in Malaysia. However, exchange rate has a negative but significant relationship with the dependent variable. Future researchers are recommended to use a wider timeframe to make the findings more accurate.
