Background of the Study
Coordinated fiscal policies are critical in establishing a stable and predictable economic environment, which in turn stimulates business investment. In Nigeria, inconsistencies in fiscal policy have historically deterred investment by creating uncertainty and increasing operational risks (Balogun, 2025). Recent efforts to coordinate fiscal measures—including tax incentives, streamlined public expenditure, and targeted subsidies—aim to enhance the overall business climate (Adeyemi, 2023). A well-coordinated fiscal framework is essential for mobilizing both domestic and foreign capital, thereby fostering industrial growth and job creation. The literature indicates that consistent and transparent fiscal policies reduce market volatility and promote investor confidence (Okoro, 2024). This study examines how coordinated fiscal policies affect business investment in Nigeria by analyzing policy reforms, assessing their impacts on capital inflows, and identifying potential areas for further improvement. The integration of fiscal strategies is particularly important in a competitive global market where investor confidence can pivot on fiscal predictability and policy coherence (Adeyemi, 2023; Okoro, 2024; Balogun, 2025).
Statement of the Problem
Business investment in Nigeria has been hampered by erratic fiscal policies and policy discontinuities, leading to uncertainty and diminished investor confidence (Okoro, 2024). The lack of coordinated fiscal strategies has resulted in inefficient resource allocation and missed investment opportunities. Such inconsistencies contribute to a volatile business environment that discourages long-term investment plans. As a result, the economy suffers from a shortage of capital inflows necessary for sustainable growth. Without a unified approach to fiscal management, efforts to stimulate business investment remain fragmented and ineffective (Balogun, 2025; Adeyemi, 2023).
Objectives of the Study
- To evaluate the impact of coordinated fiscal policies on business investment.
- To identify the key fiscal factors influencing investment decisions.
- To propose strategies for enhancing fiscal coordination to attract more investments.
Research Questions
- How do coordinated fiscal policies influence business investment in Nigeria?
- What fiscal factors most significantly affect investor confidence?
- Which policy measures can improve the coordination of fiscal strategies to boost investment?
Research Hypotheses
- Coordinated fiscal policies positively influence business investment.
- Greater fiscal consistency enhances investor confidence.
- Policy reforms that streamline fiscal measures lead to increased capital inflows.
Significance of the Study
The study is significant as it provides a comprehensive analysis of how coordinated fiscal policies can enhance business investment. The insights derived from this research are expected to guide policymakers in designing strategies that foster a more stable investment environment, ultimately contributing to economic growth (Balogun, 2025; Adeyemi, 2023; Okoro, 2024).
