Business opportunities-as reflected in
the size and growth potential of markets-are the most
powerful drivers of foreign direct investment. But
investment climate features such as strong institutions and
investor friendly regulations also matter and may even boost
the development impact of the investment. Moreover, many
elements of the investment climate can be reformed in the
short run and at comparatively low cost. Improving the
investment climate therefore offers an excellent opportunity
for countries seeking to attract foreign direct investment.
