According to The Organization for International Investment Report for 2016, “…in the first three quarters of 2015, FDIUS (Foreign Direct Investments in the US) exceeded $320 billion.” WOW.
International investment in US industry is a good thing. It funds factories, R&D and creates millions of well-paying jobs. Just look at what Honda & Toyota have done in Alabama & Mississippi, respectively. Foreign investment is happening in a wide range of industries – mining, banking, finance & insurance, utilities, retail trade, and manufacturing. And the best part of all this – manufacturing accounts for more than one-third of the cumulative foreign direct investment.
What’s the attraction
The US offers a huge consumer market, a skilled and productive workforce, a great entrepreneurial culture and the largest venture and private equity market in the world. When an investor seeks growth through acquisition, the appeal of established suppliers and customers, a skilled and trained workforce, and distribution channels is incredible.
