ABSTRACT
In this paper we investigate the role of Foreign Direct Investment on Capital Flight. We use data from the World Bank on African Development indicators; Kenya 1970:2008. We use econometric technique in our analysis. Our literature survey reveal that key factors that explain capital flight are; net foreign direct investment, current account deficit, change in official reserve, and external debt. We expect our main findings to findings to be as follows: (i) Net foreign direct investment to have a positive effect on capital flight, (ii) Change in eternal debt to have a positive effect on the capital flight, (iii) current account deficit to have a negative effect on the capital flight, (iv) Change in official reserve to have a negative effect on the capital flight.
