Global direct foreign investments decreased by 11 percent, which became the second consecutive year of the decline. Global direct foreign investments are reduced for the second year in a row Economic development The UN Conference on Trade and Development (Junctad) warned that political uncertainty has extremely negatively affects global investments, and announced a growing threat to developing countries due to a sharp reduction in investment in sustainable development (CUR). According to the Junktad World Report on Thursday, the global direct foreign investments decreased by 11 percent, which became the second row the year of the decline. This trend indicates the deepening slowdown of production flows. & Amp; nbsp; & nbsp; a sharp decrease in the inflow of investment occurred in developed economies, especially in Europe. In developing countries, the influx of investment seems stable, but, according to the authors of the report, a deeper crisis is hidden: in many economies, capital either stagnates or completely bypasses the most important sectors-infrastructure, energy, technologies and industries that create workplaces. & Amp; nbsp; Capital to where it is easier, and not where it is more needed, ”said the General Secretary of the Junktad Rebeck Grinspan. “But we can change it.” If we coordinate state and private investments with the goals of development and restore trust in the system, today’s instability will turn into new opportunities tomorrow. ”& Amp; nbsp; ~ 60 > fragmentation and volatility 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 >The investment climate in 2024 was formed under the influence of geopolitical tension, trade fragmentation and growing competition in the field of industrial policy, the report said. These factors, combined with increased financial risks and uncertainty, transform the world investment card and undermine the confidence of investors in the long term. Multinational companies are increasingly preferred by short -term risk management to the detriment of long -term strategies. & Amp; nbsp; uneven stability A decrease in global direct foreign investments was largely caused by a drop in investment in developed economies (by 22 percent), including a collapse – by 58 percent in Europe. North America was an exception, showing an increase of 23 percent, mainly at the expense of the United States. & Amp; NBSP; In developing economies, the trends were varied. In Africa, foreign investments increased by 75 percent due to a large project in Egypt. Even without taking into account this project, the growth amounted to 12 percent, which was facilitated by measures to simplify investment and regulation reform. & Amp; NBSP; Asia retained the status of the largest recipient of foreign investment despite the moderate decline – by three percent. Southeast Asia countries increased the volume of investments by 10 percent to $ 225 billion, which became the second largest indicator in history. & Amp; NBSP; in Latin America and the Caribbean, a decrease in 12 percent occurred, although the number of new projects increased in countries such as Argentina, Brazil and Brazil and Brazil and Brazil and Brazil Mexico. & Amp; nbsp; The Middle East has retained high indicators, which was facilitated by economic diversification in the countries of the Persian Gulf. & Amp; nbsp; in structurally vulnerable economies, the results were mixed: in the least developed countries and small island developing states, there was an increase (9 and 14 percent, respectively), while in countries that do not have access to the sea, there was a decrease by 10 percent. & nbsp; & nbsp; deficit of investments in development although the volume of direct investments in new projects remained at the same level, international project financing, especially important for infrastructure, in 2024, in 2024 It decreased by 26 percent. A particularly sharp fall occurred in sectors that are crucial for achieving the goals in the field of sustainable development: renewable energy (-31 percent), transport (-32 percent) and water supply and sanitation (-30 percent). & Amp; nbsp; direct foreign investments in the digital economy increased by 14 percent, but this growth remained uneven: 10 countries They provided 80 percent of all new digital projects, while many developing countries remain aside due to lack of infrastructure, regulatory frames and qualified personnel. & NBSP; the authors of the report warn that the current level of investment is significantly lags behind global needs. Only to eliminate the financing of the CUR, developing countries annually requires about four trillions of dollars – a goal that is becoming more and more inaccessible.
