| Summary: | This paper presents a bird’s eye
overview of the investment policy and promotion (IPP)
logical framework developed by the trade and competitiveness
global practice of the WBG to address the challenge of how
countries can use foreign direct investment (FDI) to advance
their economic development. The report sets out three key
propositions: i.e. (i) that investment policy should aim not
to choose between but connect domestic and foreign
investors, (ii) that investment policy making should be
based on the whole investment cycle going beyond promotion
and (iii) that not all FDI is the same nor has the same
development impacts. This sets out the logical framework for
a concrete investment policy and promotion intervention in a
time of globalization that will yield measurable results. |
