NFD in 2005 US $ NFD in current US $ adjusted to inflation by GDP deflator (base year by country) GDP deflator + year GDP deflator/100 New GDP deflator x NFD in current US $ = NFD in 2005 $

Control Variables GINI Coefficient/Index Population growth (annual %) Urban population growth (annual %) Agricultural land (% of lad area) Forest area (% of land area) DEMOCRACY!!!

Independent Variable FDI net inflows, as % of GDP FDI net inflows, BoP current US$
