Titre : Fair and Equitable Treatment : Unctad Series on issues in international investment agreements Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : UNCTAD, Auteur Editeur : United Nations Année de publication : 1999 Collection : United Nations Conference on Trade and Development Importance : 60 p. Note générale : 03.02 UNC Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Commerce Tags : Commerce international Développement économique Economie mondiale Coopération internationale Index. décimale : 03.02 Accords Commerciaux Résumé : In recent years, the concept of fair and equitable treatment has assumed prominence in investment relations between States. While the earliest proposals that made reference to this standard of treatment for investment are contained in various multilateral efforts in the period immediately following World War II, the
bulk of the State practice incorporating the standard is to be found in bilateral investment treaties (BITs) which have become a central feature in international investment relations. In essence, the fair and equitable standard provides a yardstick by which relations between foreign direct investors
and Governments of capital-importing countries may be assessed. It also acts as a signal from capital-importing countries, for it indicates, at the very least, a State’s willingness to accommodate foreign capital on terms that take into account the interests of the investor in fairness and equity

Note générale : 03.02 UNC Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Économie internationale Tags : Commerce international Développement économique Economie mondiale Coopération internationale Index. décimale : 03.02 Accords Commerciaux Résumé : This paper considers the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in development. It is meant to give an overview in respect of this topic. At the same time, it provides the broader economic underpinnings for the specific issues relating to international discussions or negotiations on investment which are addressed in other papers of the series. The paper starts with a discussion of the effects of FDI on development through trade, one third of which takes place within
corporate production systems. The reason for starting with the trade effects of FDI are twofold. Primo , trade has traditionally been the principal mechanism linking national economies. FDI does have a similar linking function and, therefore, it is interesting to ascertain whether, and to what extent, the two linking functions reinforce each other.En ligne : http://www.unctad.org/en/docs/tdr2011_en.pdf Foreign Direct Investment and Development : Unctad Series on issues in international investment agreements [texte imprimé] / UNCTAD, Auteur . - [S.l.] : United Nations, 1999 . - 72 p.. - (United Nations Conference on Trade and Development) .

Titre : Foreign direct investment in Africa : performance and potential Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : UNCTAD, Auteur Editeur : United Nations Année de publication : 1999 Importance : 77 p Présentation : 02.02.IDE Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Afrique
Développement économiqueTags : IDE Afrique Index. décimale : 02.02 - Monnaies Résumé : Foreign direct investment (FDI) is welcomed and, indeed, actively sought by virtually all African countries. The contribution that FDI can make to their economic development and integration into the world economy is widely recognized. For this reason, African countries have made considerable efforts over the past decade to improve their investment climate. They have liberalized their investment regulations and have offered incentives to foreign investors. More importantly, the economic performance of the region had substantially improved from the mid-1990s. However, the expected surge of FDI into Africa as a whole has not occurred. Too often, potential investors discount the African continent as a location for investment because a negative image of the region as a whole conceals the complex diversity of economic performance and the existence of investment opportunities in individual countries. While the problems many African countries face are widely known and dominate the perceptions of the continent as a whole, there are a number of positive aspects that, although highly relevant for foreign investors, are little known. Most African countries have substantially improved their FDI framework, and a number of them have already attracted significant amounts of FDI, in absolute or relative terms, or both, from an increasing number of home countries, including developing countries. In addition, FDI in Africa is no longer concentrated in the traditional natural resources sector, but also manufacturing and services industries have received considerable amounts of FDI in recent years. It has proven to be highly profitable and fairly consistently so over time. Direct investors need therefore to differentiate. They need to look at Africa country by country, sector by sector, and opportunity by opportunity. As in other continents, there are profitable investment opportunities to be found.
