Abstract

This study examines the impact of education on foreign direct investment inflow to Nigeria. The study used time series data from Nigeria from 1999–2020 on ordinary least square and quantile analysis techniques. The results obtained show that education enhances FDI inflow in Nigeria both within the mean and outside the mean of data. The study recommends that policymakers coordinate their FDI and education policies to maximize economic benefits.
