520 _aABSTRACT Globalization has made it possible for business organizations to conduct business activities across borders and this has been discovered to be one of the major driving forces for the economic development of several countries in the world. This is observed from the fact that several business organizations from different countries are entering other countries for business purposes through the concept of foreign direct investment. However, there are certain possible economic uncertainties that possibly have effect for countries, especially developing ones such as Nigeria, to attract foreign direct investment. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the impact of economic policy uncertainty on foreign direct investment in Nigeria. This was achieved quantitatively using secondary data which spans a thirty-one-year period from 1990 to 2020 retrieved from Central Bank of Nigeria, Nigeria Exchange Commission, Work Bank Development Index, and others. It is important to note that the dependent variable is foreign direct investment (FDI) while the independent variables are uncertainty index, money supply, exchange rate, interest rate and inflation rate. The analysis was conducted using Vector Auto regression (VAR) Model to check for the relationships among the variables while Granger Causality test was applied to determine the causation. The results showed that economic uncertainty has a negative and significant effect on foreign direct investment in Nigeria and the causality test showed that there is causality relationship between the two variables for the period studied.
