 - Brasília :  IPEA,  aug. 2010 
<br/><br/> The economic and financial crisis seems to have altered the global investment landscape   considerably. The BRIC economies, in particular, have emerged as the most favoured destination   for foreign direct investment (FDI). So, in this paper, attention will be given to one of the key   drivers of their economic might – their trade and investment potential, in particular foreign direct   investment. Thus, this paper will look at the global scenario in FDI inflows, present a sectoral   breakdown of the inward FDI in the BRIC economies, analyse the factors that make the BRIC   economies attractive for FDI inflows, examine the relation between economic growth and FDI and   also outline relevant policy issues
