The analysis reveals a long run relationship among FDI, RER and the GARCH measure of exchange rate volatility to FDI . however, we find no discernible link from FDI to RER and its volatility in the short run . Thus, the atudy concludes that depreciation in exchange rate level leade to increases in exchange rate uncease in due to decreases in exchange rate uncertainty in the short run.
