The results of this study indicate a one-way relationship between FDI and DDI. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from related institutions. That is, data realization Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Direct Investment (DI) obtained from the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM)This is evident from the results of the analysis using VECM that FDI provides a positive short-term and long-term impact on DDI, as well as showing strong influence.
