Brazil has become the world's third largest destination for foreign direct investment (FDI), according to a report released by the Organization for Cooperation and Development (OECD) in 2022.
The OECD presented data showing that foreign direct investment in the country increased by 68% to US$ 85 billion, second only to the United States ($318 billion) and the China ($180 billion). This growth offoreign direct investment in Brazil is attributed by the report to reinvestments of corporate earnings and changes in corporate debt.
It is important to mention that the expansion of Brazil contrasts with the 24% drop in global FDI, reaching US$ 1,286 billion. The report points out that this is due, in large part, to the withdrawal of capital from a large multinational from Luxembourg. Without the country in the calculation, the FDI in the world had a reduction of 5% in 2022.
The OECD highlights that the drop in global FDI flows occurred mainly in the last quarter of 2022, 95% below the previous quarter
The entity also states that international merger and acquisition (M&A) activities continued on a downward trajectory last year, due to geopolitical tensions, financial tightening and a growing risk of recession.
