| Summary: | This paper investigates the impact of foreign-direct investment (FDI) and financial development on economic growth in Malaysia over the period of 1975-2014.

This implies that well-developed financial sectors lead to further and facilitate FDI spill over and hence yield economic growth, particularly for the case of Malaysia. |
