| dc.description.abstract | The role of foreign direct investment (FDI) and public-private partnership (PPP) projects in economic growth has been a topic of discussion for some time now. However, the conclusions from empirical studies tend to vary, including those in the Philippines. Using data from the World Development Indicators database of the World Bank, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), and the Public-Private Partnership Center (PPPC) of the Philippines, this study employs descriptive and econometric analysis to estimate the impact of FDI inflows and PPP projects on the economic growth of the Philippines over the period 1991–2020, along with the usual components of GDP, i.e., consumption spending, investment, and government expenditure. The evidence shows that FDI and PPP infrastructure projects have a positive impact on economic growth, but only PPP infrastructure projects produce significant results. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic posed a major constraint on FDI and PPP projects. Nevertheless, it is hoped that the results of this study will lead to policy implications that would promote FDI and PPP projects for faster economic growth and inclusive development. | |
