spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/12969 The regulatory environment for foreign investments in Nigeria Sani, Sani Baba Ordor, Ada Commercial Law Includes bibliographical references. Foreign investment is one of the key elements of economic development in Nigeria. Yet the process of regulating it is challenging and problematic, particularly in the northern parts of Nigeria where people prefer informal investments and tend to ignore the necessary laws governing investments. Today in Nigeria as in most African countries, there are many investors, most of them from Asia, who are very insensitive to the rule of law. They invest and carry out business in Nigeria and particularly northern Nigeria often in breach of investment laws. Nigerian investment regulatory laws were made to provide security and protection of investors’ interests, but these laws are ignored due to their technicality. There is no doubt that the regulatory environment for investment will work better and more securely when there is a system of compliance. The dissertation will focus on the theoretical and practical analysis of investment security laws in Nigeria, and not the root of investment as a concept itself which is beyond the scope of this work. 2015-05-28T07:00:53Z 2015-05-28T07:00:53Z 2014 Master Thesis Masters LLM http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12969 eng application/pdf Department of Commercial Law Faculty of Law University of Cape Town
