INWARD FDI PERFORMANCE INDEX - Results for 2005-2007

The Performance Index is shown for three-year periods to offset annual fluctuations in the data. The indices cover 141 economies for as much of the period as the data permit, however, some economies in transition could not be ranked in the early years for lack of data or because they did not exist as separate countries. The indices exclude tax havens, which for tax rather than productive reasons tend to have massive FDI inflows in relation to their economic size.

This index and the indices for previous periods are available in PDF format here: 1988-1990 | 1989-1991 | 1990-1992 | 1991-1993 | 1992-1994 | 1993-1995 | 1994-1996 | 1995-1997 | 1996-1998 | 1997-1999 | 1998-2000 | 1999-2001 | 2000-2002 | 2001-2003 | 2002-2004 | 2003-2005 | 2004-2006 | 2005-2007 |

The Inward FDI Performance Index is also available for 2005-2007, however, as we do not yet have comparable data for Inward FDI Potential, the Matrix is based on 2004-2006 data.
