India beats U.S. on direct investment destination
New Delhi (dpa) - India has displaced the U.S. as the second-most attractive
destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) in the world, news reports said
Friday.
An annual survey of executives from world's largest companies ranked China as
the most favoured destination for the fourth consecutive year.
Global management consulting firm AT Kearney, which conducted the survey, said
the U.S. had slipped to the third place, occupied by India last year.
According to Kearney's confidence index, China scored 2.197 points on the
Foreign Direct Investment attractiveness ranking while India scored 1.951
points.
India leads the list of countries with the highest level of investor optimism,
with over 47 per cent expressing a positive change in outlook as compared to a
year ago, the Times of India reported.
Kearney said Britain maintained the fourth place, followed by Poland, Russia
and Brazil. Kearney said Germany declined from fifth to ninth, France from
sixth to 14th, Italy from ninth to 19th and Spain from 13th to 17th place.
The U.S. has lost ground mainly in the light manufacturing and financial
services sector.
India, on the other hand, has become more attractive because of relaxation of
ownership restrictions in telecom and positive developments in heavy and light
manufacturing industries as well as in the wholesale and retail sectors despite
uncertainty about liberalisation, the Business Standard said.
"India is on the cusp of an FDI take-off. However, for India to harness
manufacturing investor interest and evolve into an FDI capital-intensive hub,
the government must maintain its reform orientation and overcome narrow
business interests," Paul Laudicina, managing director of AT Kearney's Global
Business Policy Council, said.
Kearney noted that India has yet to build a "critical mass" in FDI, having
started investment-attracting reforms in 1991. China's pro-FDI regime has been
in place since 1979.
Despite its perceived attractiveness as an investment destination, last year
India attracted FDI inflows of only 6 billion dollars, compared to China's 62
billion dollars and U.S.'s 121 billion dollars.
