SUMMARY

Investment promotion reflects the growing competition for foreign direct investment (FDI). Over the past decade, many countries have liberalized their policy environment and legal framework in favour of foreign direct investment. However, notwithstanding extensive efforts to provide attractive FDI regimes, a number of countries remain unable to attract foreign investors. This raises the question of how the competitive position of these countries can be improved. Knowledge of the experience of similar countries should be a vital tool in the formulation of relevant policies. The survey provides comparative information on investment promotion practice in more than 80 countries. The information covers a broad array of developing and developed countries from Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas. [in English only]
