Background of the Study
Investment decisions by foreign investors are influenced by the quality of financial information provided by potential investees. IFRS adoption aims to enhance the credibility, comparability, and transparency of financial statements, which are essential factors for attracting foreign investment. In Nigeria, IFRS is expected to play a critical role in shaping foreign investors’ perceptions and decision-making processes.
Statement of the Problem
Despite IFRS adoption, foreign investment inflows into Nigeria remain relatively low. Factors such as inconsistent compliance, economic instability, and perceived risks may diminish the positive effects of IFRS on investment decisions. This study explores the impact of IFRS on foreign investors’ decision-making in Nigeria.
