The empirical analysis shows that there is one co-integrating vector which indicates the existence of long run relationship between inflation and domestic credit to the private sector by banks to FDI inflows. It has also been found that banking sector development exerts significant positive but inflation exerts insignificant negative influence on FDI inflows. Finally, a unidirectional causality was discovered between banking sector development to FDI inflows. The study suggests that concerned authority should take prompt steps to develop banking sector and manage inflation to accelerate the FDI inflows in Bangladesh. Keywords: FDI, Inflation, Banking sector, Causal relationship. 1. Introduction: The development of banking sector is a precondition for the foreign direct investment (FDI) to speed up the economic growth of a country (Alfaro and others 2004, 2010, Hermes and Lensink 2003). The smooth and well-functioning financial sector or market liberalization can help to urge economic growth (Bekaert and others 2005, Levine and others 2000, Levine and Zervos 1998).There is a positive relationship between FDI and inflation in Pakistan (Salemand others *Assistant Professor, Department of Finance and Banking, University of Barishal Barishal University Journal Part III, Volume 5 Issue 2 (December 2018) 2012). The main focusing point of this paper is to analyze the impact of inflation and banking sector development on foreign direct investment in Bangladesh. Actually, the financial services are heavily dependent on the development of the financial sectors especially on banking sector. As a developing country, the financial sectors in Bangladesh are on average shallow and poorly developed. On the other hand, the capability of absorbing the internal and external macroeconomic shocks is very weak. Additionally, the country is heavily dependent on FDI inflows for economic prosperity. In the same way inflation is a common scenario for the developing countries. So, it is imperative to identify the linkage between inflation and banking sector development to FDI inflows in Bangladesh. The findings in this study could have important policy implications for concerned authorities of Bangladesh. Identification of the relationship could help to improve the quality of local banking sector to make them more efficient and attractive for any MNCs to invest in respective markets. The rest of this paper is organized as follows. In addition to the introduction section 2 presented objectives of the study. Section 3 presented literature review while section 4 discussed description of the data and methodology. Empirical results of the study are explained in section 5. Finally, concluding remarks are drawn in section 6. 2. Objectives of the Study: The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of inflation and banking sector development on foreign direct investment (FDI) in Bangladesh. 2 The Impact of Inflation and Banking Sector Development on Foreign Direct Investment in Bangladesh 3. Literature Review: Aqeel and others (2004) verified that how different variables are reflecting trade, fiscal and financial sector liberalization to attract FDI in Pakistan using co-integration and error-correction techniques. The study included the variables i.e., tariff rate, exchange rate, tax rate, credit to private sector and index of general share price to explain the FDI. In the study, banking sector was represented by the size of credit to the private sector. All variables
