This study examined the impact of foreign capital inflows on economic growth in Zimbabwe over the period 1980-2013 using the Error Correction Model. The results show that foreign direct investment, official development assistance, physical capital and labour force have a positive effect on economic growth. Foreign direct investment had more impact on economic growth than official development assistance, physical capital and labour force. Trade openness and external debt have a negative effect on economic growth.
