Summary: | The study provides some indications of current trends in international investment flows & likely developments through the beginning of the next century. Its findings are that there will be a sharp rise in foreign investment as sales & production become more international & that this will increasingly occur through acquisitions, joint ventures & alliances. Other main conclusions are that developing economies will attract growing amounts of foreign direct investment & that the principal determinant for investing abroad will remain to get market access. While this study is based on subjective views, the individuals who have expressed them are in the driver's seat when it comes to internationalization. Their assessments therefore provide important pointers to developments that are likely to occur. |
