Synopsis

This book covers the policies of governments and countries toward direct foreign investment in both developed and developing countries. A team of consultants to the World Bank addresses three broad questions regarding foreign investment: Do countries compete for foreign investment? Are host country incentives effective in attracting foreign investment? Do performance requirements imposed by host countries alter either investment or operational decisions of foreign investors? To answer these questions, both government officials in ten countries and representatives of more than thirty multinational companies were interviewed. In addition, seventy-four investment projects in the automobile, computer, food products, and petrochemical industries were selected for intensive review.
