In this paper, we investigate the linkage between FDI and economic growth using macro econometric model in the Ghanaian context. Structural shocks in an SVAR model were used to identify the contemporaneous and short run relationships effects of these variables. The AB model restriction approach was used for the Identification and was compared to the Cholesky decomposition. We showed that, there exit a contemporaneous short run positive effects of FDI inflows on GDP growth but as the time horizon expands these effects tend to converge to the equilibrium, however FDI’s deteriorate domestic investment
