This study investigates the impact of external debt servicing on Nigeria’s economic growth through a time-series data between 1985 to 2018 which was managed with Autoregressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) model. Results of the study indicated that in the long-run, external debt servicing will negatively affect economic growth. That is an increase in external debt servicing lead to a decline in economic growth. The study suggests that debt service requirement should not be allowed to increase above the debt stock and, the contracted loan should be devoted to infrastructure development through efficient and judicious utilization. 2020-09-14T06:25:57Z 2020-09-14T06:25:57Z 2020-06 Article International Journal of Business and Technopreneurship, vol.10(2), 2020, pages 257-268 2231-7090 (printed) 2232-1543 (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/67096 https://ijbt.unimap.edu.my en School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) |
