The Dominican Republic receives more foreign direct investment than any other country in the Caribbean. The DR received US$9.15 billion over the past five years, compared to US$3.28 billion in Trinidad, in second place. Statistics from the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) indicate that last year the DR received US$2.15 billion in foreign investment, which was 27% less than what was received in 2008.
Foreign direct investment (FDI) flows to Latin America and the Caribbean will rebound in 2010, rising 40% to 50%, after dropping in 2009 as a result of the global crisis, according to ECLAC's annual report on FDI released today.
