We have examined the effects of government debt, government expenditure, interest rate and growth rate on private investments for the 2000-2015 period. The results show that government debt, government expenditure, interest rates and budget deficits all affect private investment negatively and the impact of economic growth is positive. The findings of the study support the existence of the crowding out effect in the Eurozone for the period of 2000-2015. © 2017 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesscrowding outdebt crisisEurozoneArticle10.1504/IJSE.2017.080857911182-s2.0-85033222249Q3
