In relation to the rapid economic growth and various investment policy reforms; the number and types of FDI inflows to Ethiopia has been increasing. These steady inflows of FDI deliver important contributions to employment, foreign exchange and revenue generation of the country. FDI also affects the domestic economy indirectly through various channels one of which is productivity improvement of domestic firms resulting from technology and knowledge spillovers.

As far as our knowledge is concerned, none of the previous studies assess the role of host country factors and institutions
