2021 World Investment Report

The faster return to positive GDP growth in the second quarter of 2020 and the lifting of investment restrictions helped support investment.

The service sector led growth, accounting for more than 70% of inflows; FDI accelerated especially in technology-related industries.

With the aim of boosting investment, the government expanded the number of industries open to FDI, lifted restrictions on foreign investment in key industries and amended the negative list for foreign investment in pilot free trade zones, which increased by 11%.
