Study by Andabai and Igbodika (2018) posited that in a globalized world no country is self-sufficient, indeed economies all over the world are expected to linked directly or indirectly together. Thus, this relationship is also made possible through foreign direct investment. The work of Uguegbe (2017) viewed foreign direct investment as a catalyst for growth and development in any modern economy; because, it stimulates domestic investment through increase in capital formation and facilitating technology transfer in the host countries. Hence, as a result, foreign direct investment has been considered as one of the most important sources of external inflow to the Nigerian economy over the years (Legbosi, 2017). The work of Ogbeke (2018) revealed some potential advantages of the foreign direct investment to the host economy as: to facilitates the utilization and exploitation of local raw material, introduces modern techniques of management and marketing, eases the access to new technologies, foreign direct investment inflow can be used for financing current account deficit etc. Study by Togbuko(2018) stated that government have been trying to lift the country out of the economic doldrums without achieving success as desired. One of the major constraint identified by the work of Ogbekondu (2018) is inadequate savings needed for the required investment. Hence, foreign direct investment is needed to reduce the difference between the desired gross domestic investments and domestic savings in an economy. Abstract: The study evaluated the Vector Error Correction analysis of foreign direct (FDI) investment and its effect on the performance of Nigerian economy; for the period 1990-2018. Secondary data were used and collected from Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin. The study used Gross Domestic Product as the dependent variable to measure economic performance; whereas, Exchange Rate, Foreign Direct Investment and Inflation Rate respectively were employed as the explanatory variables. The result confirmed that about 78% short-run adjustment speed from long-run disequilibrium. The study revealed that foreign direct investment had a significant effect on Gross Domestic Product in Nigeria. Exchange rate was positive; but had an insignificant effect on Gross Domestic Product in Nigeria. Inflation rate had an insignificant effect on Gross Domestic Product. The coefficient of determination indicated that about 64% of the variations in economic growth can be explained by changes in foreign direct investment variables in Nigeria. The study concluded that foreign direct investment had significantly affected the growth and development of the Nigerian economy. The study recommended that the Government and policy makers s","PeriodicalId":277653,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Managerial Studies and Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114768576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Case Study","authors":"Tomas Agustín Bas","doi":"10.20431/2349-0349.0810006","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.20431/2349-0349.0810006","url":null,"abstract":"The article analyzes a case study of an important peanut producing company in the Province of Córdoba, Argentina, with the intention of exploring and characterizing new target export markets within Latin America. The intention is to determine the logistic viability of the company to export the oilseed Arachis hypogaea, commonly known as \"Peanut\". Peanuts were selected as a star product because of the high demand for them and because of the innumerable benefits and properties they have for human consumption, since they are rich in proteins, oils, fiber, vitamins and carbohydrates (Zapata et al., 2012; Shi et al, 2016; 2017; Di Stasio et al., 2020; Bonku and Yu, 2020). Specifically, peanuts, in their roasted version, are a lower fat product than fried peanuts and are highly appreciated in the world as a snack (Kong et al., 2013; Guo et al., 2020). Additionally, it is important to highlight that the province of Córdoba (Argentina) contributes between 80 and 90% to the national production of this oilseed, while it stands out among the five largest world producers (Ackerman, 2006; Calzada and Rosadilla, 2018; Magyp, 2020). From the perspective of international trade, peanuts are in the chapter belonging to nuts or dried fruits (Jovtis and Juez, 2014). All these elements combined make the decision to analyze the market of the mentioned product in the time frame of the last years, with a strong emphasis on the complete statistical data of the years 2018 and 2019 for the industry.","PeriodicalId":277653,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Managerial Studies and Research","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124294438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
