Determinants and analysis of domestic debt in Nigeria: 1970- 2015. ‘An Enquiry into the Nature, Cause of the Wealth of Nature”, p. Page(s): 01-08 Date of Publication: 26 March 2021 The researcher concluded that public debt crowds out domestic private investment in the long run in Nigeria within the period of the study. Sourcing fund for private investment is compromised by high level of government involvement in loanable fund, meaning that since domestic borrowing is mostly done by government due to their trusted repayment plan, domestic private investors will be left with unattainable or difficult conditions that will not allow access to those credit facilities. Some of the implications of the results is significant unproductive influence of public debt on domestic private investment, as such most borrowed fund are not invested in choice investment. And there is no directional causality between public debt and domestic private investment. Debt servicing has a negative insignificant impact on domestic private investment.

Results indicated that external debt has negative significant impact with domestic private investment, domestic debt has negative significant effect on domestic private investment.
