dc.description.alternativeAbstractABSTRACT Ill-regulation can only be determined when there is a consistent negative performance as a result of the law. Arguments in this study provide that there is a relationship between regulations and FDI performance in Cameroon. FDI is usually expected to provide capital for investment and help to boost the economy of Host countries. This research seeks to examine why the expected premise has not been the case in most developing countries. With the use of a qualitative research design, this study makes particular focus on ill-regulation and negative FDI performance. It provides an examination of the regulations governing FDI in Cameroon and instances were such laws may have been ill-regulated. Other findings are supported by observations and interviews which indicate that the negative performance of FDI in host countries can be linked to its regulations. Regulations in Cameroon have failed to provide incentives to domestic investors creating a platform of uneven competition between domestic and foreign investors. It is the role of legislators to implement laws that can provide positive effects.-
