THE RESEARCH RECOMMENDATION
1. Investors must enter into under-served sectors which
have been inadvertently
2. The government of Ghana should apportion some of its

Sectors to Local Investors
3. The geographical focus should be widened to reach other
sectors because the survey may not represent every
sector of FDI in Ghana
