Abstract
The prevalence of poverty in developing countries demands that these countries should
improvise ways of encouraging move revenue generating projects to supplement or significantly
reduce dependence on foreign funding. Foreign investment is thus encouraged to get rid of this
challenge. This paper examines foreign direct investment as a tool of increasing the contribution
of tax revenue to Gross Domestic product and consequently a means of reducing the gap
between the rich and the poor. The goal of this paper is to propose ways in which the Uganda Investment Authority (UJA) can make its investment administration more effective. To attain this objective, the paper begins with a detailed discussion on the investment structure; it then highlights the laws that govern investment, the policies, rationale for investment and recommendations for bettering Foreign Direct investment.
