Foreign Direct Investment is the direct investment by a investor in the economy. It definitely brings in capital in the economy. FDI apparently helps in the outsourcing of knowledge from India especially in the Information Technology sector. Developing countries by inviting FDI can introduce world-class technology and technical expertise and processes to their existing working process. Foreign expertise can be an important factor in upgrading the existing technical processes. FDI can help to finance the CAD but it can’t directly reduce it.
