angladesh is a developing country. Government of Bangladesh is looking forward to be a middle income country within 2021. In order to do that requires huge investment. There exists a saving investment gap. Investible fund may come from internal as well as external. External sources may foreign direct investment and foreign aid. Foreign Direct Investment is considered as one of the crucial ingredients for fostering economic development of developing country. The gap between actual flow of total investment and target of Government articulated in the medium term macroeconomic framework is on the rise and might grow sharply in the upcoming years [1]. FDI plays an important part in creating jobs but also considered as a source of income. But the strong argument in favor of public support to FDI is based on the prospect for knowledge spillovers. Indeed, FDI appears as the way to get capital without assuming the risk linked to the debt. Despite the controversies surrounding the benefits and cost of FDI a number of developing. Governments have now changed their policies from restricting towards promoting foreign investment [2]. The gains from FDI inflows are unquestionable as it contributes to economic growth through an increase in productivity by providing new investment, better technologies and managerial skills to the host countries. The impact of FDI on economic growth depends on the degree of capacity of the host country to use FDI efficiently. Similarly, trade liberalization may facilitate economic growth through efficiency in production by utilizing the abundant factors of production more effectively and absorbing better technologies from advanced countries. On the one hand, it may harm the growth process through various forms of macroeconomic instability such as terms of trade deterioration and balance of payments crisis. Therefore, it is a challenge for developing countries to find out the appropriate direction of the role of FDI and trade liberalization in economic growth [3]. FDI is considered as an important tool for economic development of developing country. If the investing country is wealthier than the host country then capital will flow to the host country [4].

Foreign direct investment has great impact on the development of developing country like Bangladesh. Several studies have been conducted on FDI. Faruk in his study "Effect of FDI to accelerate the economic growth of Bangladesh and some problem and prospect of FDI"found that FDI has greater impact on GDP or economic growth of Bangladesh [5]. Saha has seen that market instability, natural disaster, political instability, corruption, bureaucratic difficulties, power generation, inefficient labor, poor infrastructure, lack of joint effort, investors suspicious sentiments, regional and international politics are considered to be the hindrance in getting the sound FDI in Bangladesh [6]. Macroeconomic environment, governance, infrastructure, financial incentives, international integration, political stability, human resources, technological infrastructure plays vital role to bring more FDI in Bangladesh [7]. Nasrin et al in the paper "Major determinants and hindrance of FDI inflow in Bangladesh: perceptions and experience of foreign investors and policy maker" cheap labor, government incentives, investment friendly public policy and geographical location attract FDI [8]. Bhattacharya in his article he shown that industrious low cost workforce, strategic location, regional connectivity, strong vibrant local market and growth, openness to trade, low cost energy, proven export competitiveness, export and economic zones financial and fiscal incentives brings more FDI [9]. Alam in his paper shown that Bangladesh offers various fiscal, financial and other facilities to his research found that market size, labor cost, human resources, macroeconomic instability, regulatory policy, trade performance and competitiveness affect FDI [2]. Kafi et al in their study opined that infrastructure, macroeconomic environment, governance, international integration, political stability, human resources, technological infrastructures, bureaucracy, political unrest, corruption, insufficient power supply are fundamental ingredients to secure FDI [11]. Shahabuddin et al the study investigated that Bangladesh provides tax incentives, direct financial grants subsidies, loan guarantees to find more FDI [12].

Factors those make Bangladesh distinct from other country are availability of skilled and unskilled labor, relative low wage, natural resources, port, geographical location, large size of local market, reasonable macroeconomic environment.
