- Abstract
This paper investigates the impact of external financial inflow on the prevalence of undernourishment for least developing countries. Panel data estimation (fixed effect, random effect, and system GMM) was used from 2001 to 2019 for 35 least developing countries. Findings suggest that FDI inflow, official development assistance, and economic growth are positive impact on hunger, thus reducing prevalence to undernourishment in the least developing countries in the presence of financial development. However, population growth increases the prevalence of undernourishment in the least developing countries.
