The proposal hypothesizes that GDP impacts FDI and will use a simple linear regression model with GDP as the independent variable and FDI as the dependent variable. It plans to collect annual GDP and FDI data online from various sources to test this relationship and hopes to find that GDP influences FDI levels in the country.
