Investment promotion agencies (IPAs) are increasingly targeting investors in services, concentrating in particular on promoting FDI in computer services, tourism and call centres, according to UNCTAD´s first Investment Brief, issued 29 October.
Investment Brief #1 is based on a recent UNCTAD survey of 61 national IPAs, which pinpoints different aspects of the shift towards services emerging in the field of foreign direct investment (FDI).
The Investment Briefs, to be issued periodically, are intended to provide IPAs with analysis of issues directly relevant to the investment promotion business.
