Abstract
Studies on the relationship between FDI and domestic investment find contradictory results, thus, the objective of this study is to explore whether Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) crowds-in or crowds-out domestic investment in Algeria by using ARDL cointegration technique from the period of 1990-2020. Empirical evidence shows that an inflow of FDI crowds-in domestic investment “DI” in Algeria. Moreover, the marginal effect of economic growth on the domestic investment is significant. In a more precise way, if growth grows by 1%, domestic investment improves by 1.23%. Furthermore, the coefficient of gross national saving is positive and significant, indicating that a 1% increase in savings leads to a 0.17% increase in domestic investment, meaning that domestic investment is financed by domestic resources. This causality is coherent with the neoclassical hypothesis that saving is the prerequisite to investing.
