Abstract
In order to strengthen economic resilience in Egypt, South Africa, and Nigeria, the current study aims to investigate how institutions moderate capital flows in these countries. This study constructs economic resilience index to ascertain the direction and magnitude from the interaction of governance quality to foreign direct investment, foreign portfolio investment and official development assistance. It is clear from the results of the bivariate model for Egypt that the interaction of governance quality with foreign direct investment and foreign portfolio investment produced positive and negative effects, as well as a significant relationship with economic resilience. However, those of Nigeria and South Africa show that only foreign portfolio investment and official development assistance interacted with governance quality to exhibit negative and positive effects, as well as a significant relationship with economic resilience.
