FDI and growth

The article `FDI may be harmful to economic growth' (Business Line, February 9) was enlightening and thought-provoking. India's growth story is different compared to China's. While India is embarking on productivity-led growth, China is achieving growth through expenditure.

India with less amount of foreign direct investment than that of China has achieved around 80 per cent growth in gross domestic product.

If it needs to achieve a growth rate of more than 10 per cent, it should start to improve its financial intermediation system. The access to credit at the right place and the right time is essential for development of entrepreneurship.
