| dc.description.abstract | Despite efforts made by the government of Ghana to encourage private investment, private investment ratios have remained very low and unstable during and after the ERP. Yet for Ghana to have high and sustained real per capita income growth, investment, particularly private investment, will have to rise above current levels. This thesis employs time series techniques to investigate The determinants of private investment in Ghana. The findings are that, in the long run, credit available to the private sector and real GDP have positive influence on private investment, but real lending rates and public investment negatively influence private investment. In the short run real GDP was not significant, but real per capita income growth rate was found to have a positive impact on private investment. Stationary tests carried out with the ADF and DF tests reveal that the Private Investment series has a permanent memory. | en_US |
