Foreign aid, domestic savings and economic growth: The experience of Bangladesh, 1972-1991

The central purpose of this dissertation is to undertake an inquiry into the effectiveness of use of foreign aid inflow into the economy of Bangladesh. This inquiry is divided principally into two parts: an econometric analysis regarding the macroeconomic contribution of foreign aid on economic growth and domestic savings and, based on secondary data and information, detailed impact studies of some selected aided-projects whose importance for the economy of Bangladesh is well-established. Another topic examined, which is thought to be inextricably related to the purpose of this dissertation, is the mobilization of domestic resources by the Bangladesh Government which is also the sole recipient of a large amount foreign aid each year.
