By Global Business & Economics

While the US still leads the world in outflowing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), the emerging markets are catching up quickly. Chinese outflowing FDI, in particular has grown tremendously: since 2005, it increased more than 30-fold in 8 years from $5 billion to $166 billion. While initial Chinese foreign investments focused on natural resource industries, over time the investments have spread to diverse industries like agriculture, manufacturing, and professional services. BRIC FDIs are emerging as key growth drivers for low income countries, improving their business environment, building infrastructure, creating jobs, and adding much-needed revenue to government coffers.

India and France. C’est la vie.

By Mohan Guruswamy

The peripatetic Narendra Modi visits Paris later this week reciprocating French President Francois Hollande’s visit in February last year. Despite the frequent high-level interactions there has been little traction on the substantive issues.

Clearly they must have been referring to Churchill’s flip-flops to and from the Conservative […]
