Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the moderating presence of FDI in the nexus amid economic progression and quality of environment in 115 countries, and various income panels of countries from 1992 to 2019, based on a theoretical underpinning of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). The results reveal...
