As debate over the role of multinational enterprises has changed over time, many developing countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have aggressively sought to attract foreign direct investment in order to gain from the expected benefits associated with investment of this nature. There has been a shift in policies and an introduction of various incentives to attract investment.
