Investitionsführer für Indien für ausländische Investoren mit Informationen über die möglichen Investitionsformen, Steuern, Auflagen und Firmen (nach Arbeitsgebieten aufgelistet), mit denen Zusammenarbeit möglich wäre. (DÜI-Xyl)

Regierungen, die sich entscheiden, statt allgemeiner Richtlinien für die Bedingungen ausländischer Direktinvestitionen diese Bedingungen im Einzelfall auszuhandeln, benötigen die dafür geeigneten organisatorischen Strukturen und administrativen Kompetenzen. Interviews mit Regierungsbeamten aus vier asiatischen Ländern (Indien, Singapur, Indonesien, Philippinen) und Unternehmensvertretern aus vier Branchen zeigen, daß die Verhandlungsstrategien von Land zu Land und von Branche zu Branche sich zum Teil erheblich unterscheiden. Zusammen mit der grundsätzlichen Haltung der Regierung zu ausländischen Direktinvestitionen sind sie von großer Bedeutung für die Attraktivität des betreffenden Landes als Investitionsstandort.(SWP-Spb)

The World Bank Group's investment climate project conducted a survey of foreign investors in the Kyrgyz Republic - both those currently operating and those that have terminated their operations for various reasons. The purpose of the survey was to assess selected aspects of the investment policy and legal environment in place in the Kyrgyz Republic, so as to determine whether the current regulations are investment-conducive or otherwise. The following aspects were studied as part of this survey: reasons for selecting a country for investing, ease of market entry, investor confidence, and protection in running a business, investor incentives and market exit. This report presents the analysis of the results of the survey. It consists of six sections, five of which discuss the results of each of the assessed aspects of the investment policy. The sixth section presents some demographics of the survey.

Since political uncertainty is greater in dictatorships than in democracies, we test the hypothesis that foreign investors scrutinize public information on dictators to assess this risk. In particular, we as-sume they use five suitable dictators' characteristics: age, political experience, education level, ed-ucation in economics, and prior experience in business. We perform fixed effects estimations on an unbalanced panel of 100 dictatorial countries from 1973 to 2008 to explain foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows. We find that educated dictators are more attractive to foreign investors. We obtain strong evidence that greater educational attainment of the leader is associated with higher FDI. We also find evidence that the leader having received education in economics and prior experience in business is associated with greater FDI. By contrast, the leader's age, and political experience have no relationship with FDI. Our results are robust to several tests and checks, including a comparison with democracies.

MALAYSIA HAS BEEN VIEWED AS ONE OF THE LESS-DEVELOPED WORLD'S SUCCESS STORIES SINCE ITS INDEPENDENCE FROM BRITAIN IN 1957. ITS ANNUAL GNP GROWTH RATE AVERAGED MORE THAN 7 PERCENT FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS, AND ITS CHANGES OF GOVERNMENT, WITH ONE EXCEPTION, HAVE BEEN ACCORDING TO CONSTITUTIONAL PROCESSES. THE COUNTRY HAS TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF ITS RICH AGRICULTURAL AND MINERAL ENDOWMENTS TO EXPAND ITS EXPORT BASE, WHILE MORE RECENTLY THE ECONOMY HAS BEEN DIVERSIFYING INTO THE PRODUCTION OF MANUFACTURED GOODS FOR BOTH THE DOMESTIC AND EXPORT MARKETS. FOREIGN COMPANIES HAVE PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN THE EXPANSION OF BOTH THE EXTRACTIVE AND MANUFACTURING SECTORS, ALONGSIDE BUSINESSES OWNED BY MALAYSIAN CITIZENS. MULTINATIONAL INVESTORS FOUND THE COUNTRY'S POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC STABILITY AND RELATIVELY OPEN, FREEMARKET ENVIRONMENT QUITE ATTRACTIVE FOR INVESTMENT. BUT THE GOVERNMENT ADOPTED A SERIES OF LAWS IN THE 1970S DESIGNED TO ACHIEVE CERTAIN SOCIAL OBJECTIVES AND ONE OF THE INEVITABLE EFFECTS WAS TO CHANGE THE COUNTRY'S ATTRACTIVENESS TO FOREIGN INVESTORS.

AbstractSome investment arbitration tribunals have relied upon the principle of contributory fault to conclude that claimants have contributed to their own loss and should accordingly receive less compensation. The principle has not, however, been coherently applied. After analysing the use of contributory fault by tribunals and identifying factors contributing to an incoherent approach, the authors conclude that carefully crafted treaty provisions can improve the consistency of international investment arbitration by fostering a more coherent approach to both contributory fault and foreign investors' responsibilities.

This article analyzes foreign direct investment in the economy of the Russian Federation by direct investment instruments (according to the principle of orientation). Direct investments are investments made by legal entities and individuals who fully own an organization or control at least 10% of the shares or the authorized (pooled) capital of the organization. Foreign investors can bring scientific and technological progress and advanced management experience to the country. The purpose of the study is to identify and demonstrate the factors that hinder the development of direct investment activity of foreign investors in Russia. The author presents possible tools for the transformation of financial resources of economic entities, including foreign investments. The key directions of increasing the investment activity of foreign investors in the Russian market have also been developed and proposed. The research methodology consisted of the use of general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis of information, economic analysis, the method of abstract logical cognition, which allows, through retrospective analysis, to generalize the theoretical aspects of investment behavior and financial literacy. The work uses the scientific results of Russian scientists posted in electronic scientific resources with open access.
