About the Book

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is one avenue for offering assistance to developing countries in their efforts to grow. Small countries typically have limited resources to direct toward investment attraction programmes, so the ability to segment the market (of Multinational Corporations looking to invest) is a crucial skill. This volume develops and employs an investment preference analysis model to give evidence so that homogenous groups of investors can be identified. Once these groups are identified, their needs - specific preference requirements for laws, regulations, incentives, and general conditions - can be more efficiently addressed.
