Radhika Kapoor, Ritika Tewari

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The economic and financial crisis seems to have altered the global investment landscape considerably. The BRIC economies, in particular, have emerged as the most favoured destination for foreign direct investment (FDI). So, in this paper, attention will be given to one of the key drivers of their economic might – their trade and investment potential, in particular foreign direct investment. Thus, this paper will look at the global scenario in FDI inflows, present a sectoral breakdown of the inward FDI in the BRIC economies, analyse the factors that make the BRIC economies attractive for FDI inflows, examine the relation between economic growth and FDI and also outline relevant policy issues.
