2. Asia
Asia continues to be the worlds top FDI spot,
accounting for nearly 30 per cent of global FDI
inflows. Thanks to a significant increase in crossborder M&As, total inflows to the region as a whole
amounted to $426 billion in 2013, 3 per cent higher
than in 2012. The growth rates of FDI inflows to
the East, South-East and South Asia subregions
ranged between 2 and 10 per cent, while inflows
to West Asia declined by 9 per cent (figure II.7).
FDI outflows from subregions showed more
diverging trends: outflows from East and SouthEast Asia experienced growth of 7 and 5 per cent,
respectively; outflows from West Asia increased

Myanmar Economic Corridor and the ChinaPakistan Economic Corridor (box II.3), are likely to
accelerate infrastructure investment in South Asia,
and to improve the overall investment climate. As a
result of interregional initiatives, China has shown
its potential to become an important source of
FDI in South Asia, particularly in infrastructure and
manufacturing industries. The Chinese Government
has started negotiating with the Indian Government
on setting up an industrial zone in India to host
investments from Chinese companies. China is
the third country to consider such country-specific
industrial zones in India, following Japan and the
Republic of Korea (WIR13).
55
Box II.3. International economic corridors and FDI prospects in South Asia
Two international economic corridors linking South Asia and East and South-East Asia are to be established: the
Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. Countries
involved in the two initiatives have drawn up specific timetables for implementation. For the BCIM Economic Corridor,
for example, the four countries have agreed to build transport, energy and telecommunication networks connecting
each other.24
Box figure II.3.1. The Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor
and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor: the geographical scope
Source: UNCTAD.
The two initiatives will help enhance connectivity between Asian subregions and foster regional economic cooperation.
In particular, these initiatives will facilitate international investment, enhancing FDI flows between participating
countries and benefiting low-income countries in South Asia. Significant investment in infrastructure, particularly
for land transportation, is expected to take place along these corridors, strengthening the connectedness of the
three subregions. In addition, industrial zones will be built along these corridors, leading to rising investment in
manufacturing in the countries involved. This is likely to help South Asian countries benefit from the production
relocation that is under way in China.

in 2011 to $5 billion in 2013. Similarly, net crossborder purchases (analogous to outward FDI) by
developed-country TNCs in this industry declined
from $58 billion in 2011 to a net divestment of
-$42 billion in 2013.
TNCs eyeing growth markets. Growing consumer
markets in emerging economies remain a prime
target for developed-country TNCs. The Japanese
beverages group Kirin Holdings, which bought
control of Brazils Schincariol in 2011, announced
its plan to invest $1.5 billion during 2014 to expand
its beer-brewing capacity in the country. Japanese
food and beverage group Suntory acquired the
United States spirits company Beam Inc. for
$13.6 billion and the drinks brands Lucozade and
Ribena of GlaxoSmithKline for $2.1 billion. These
deals give the Japanese group not only a significant
presence in the United States and the United
Kingdom, but also access to distribution networks
in India, the Russian Federation and Brazil in the
case of Beam, and Nigeria and Malaysia in the case
of Lucozade and Ribena.
Growing urban populations are driving a rapid
expansion of power generation capacity in
emerging economies, which is drawing investment
from developed-country TNCs. In October 2013,
an international consortium comprising Turkish
Electricity Generation Corporation, Itochu (Japan),
GDF Suez (France) and the Government of Turkey
signed a framework agreement to study the
feasibility of constructing a nuclear power plant in
Sinop, Turkey.65 GDF Suez (France) also teamed up
with Japanese trading house Mitsui and Moroccan
energy company Nareva Holdings to form the joint
venture Safi Energy Company, which was awarded
a contract to operate a coal-fired power plant in
Morocco in September 2013.66 Another European
power company, Eon (Germany), acquired a 50 per
cent stake in the Turkish power company Enerjisa
and increased its stake in the Brazilian power
generation company MPX in 2013, in an effort to
build a presence in emerging markets.
The pursuit of next emerging markets has led
TNCs to target lower-income countries, too. For
instance, the Japanese manufacturer Nissin Food
invested in a joint venture with the Jomo Kenyatta
University of Agriculture and Technology in Kenya,

Box II.5. The Grand Inga Hydroelectric Power Station Project: no foreign investment
secured to start first phase
When the $80 billion Grand Inga hydroelectric project was recorded in 2008, the Democratic Republic of the Congo
was one of five African countries (with Angola, Botswana, Namibia and South Africa) that agreed to develop this
project under the management of the Western Power Corridor, a consortium of five national utility companies representing each of the five States sharing 20 per cent of the equity. The host country had already secured an agreement
with BHP Billiton (Australia) to jointly develop a $3 billion aluminium smelter to use 2,000 megawatts of electricity to
be generated by the first phase of the project, Inga III.80 In 2009, however, seeking a greater controlling share in
the project, the Democratic Republic of the Congo withdrew from the agreement and went alone to develop Inga
III.81 BHP Billiton was then selected to build a $5 billion smelter, along with a 2,500-megawatt plant for $3.5 billion.
In early 2012, citing economic difficulties, the company abandoned both plans and withdrew from Inga III.
In May 2013, the stalled project was revived as a 4,800-megawatt project at an estimated cost of $12 billion, to
be managed by Eskom (South Africa) and Socit Nationale dElectricit (Democratic Republic of the Congo).
By the end of 2013, a cooperation treaty had been sealed between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and
South Africa, in which South Africa committed to buy more than half of the electricity generated. With financial and
technical assistance from the African Development Bank ($33 million) and the World Bank ($73 million),82 feasibility
studies were conducted for the base chute development. Other bilateral development agencies and regional banks
expressed interest in funding the project, but no firm commitments have been made.
Three consortiums, including TNCs from Canada, China, the Republic of Korea and Spain, have been prequalified
to bid for this $12 billion project, and a winning bidder will be selected in the summer of 2014.83 This will result in an
expansion in both FDI and non-equity modes of activity by TNCs, though the exact amounts will depend on which
consortium wins and the configuration of the project. Construction is scheduled to start in early 2016, to make the
facility operational by 2020.

Box II.6. Dawei Special Economic Zone: $10 billion secured, search continues for
new investors to finance remaining $40 billion
Although the announced $50 billion build-operate-own project in Dawei, Myanmar the Dawei SEZ was registered
as a transportation project, it is a multisectoral infrastructure project: a two-way road between Myanmar and Thailand,
a seaport, steel mills, oil refineries, petrochemical factories, power plants, telecommunication lines, water supply, a
wastewater treatment system, and housing and commercial facilities.
When this project was announced in late 2012, Thailands largest construction group, Italian-Thailand Development
(ITD), was in charge under a 75-year concession. ITD was responsible for implementing the first phase, estimated at
$8 billion, and construction was scheduled to start in April 2014.84 However, due to ITDs failure to secure sufficient
investments and reach an agreement on the development of energy infrastructure, the Governments of Myanmar and
of Thailand took over the project in 2013, establishing a joint special purpose vehicle (SPV).85
Stressing the potential for Dawei to grow into a new production hub in the ASEAN region, the Thai-Myanmar SPV
approached the Government of Japan, which had been engaged in the development of another SEZ in Thilawa.86 In
November 2013, the Thai-Myanmar SPV involved a leading Japanese TNC in a 7-megawatt power station project
in Dawei at an estimated cost of $9.9 billion (table II.9). To manage this project, a Thai-Japan joint venture has been
established by Mitsubishi Corporation (Japan) (30 per cent) and two Thai firms Electricity Generating Authority of
Thailand (50 per cent) and ITD (20 per cent).87
To implement the remaining six segments of infrastructure development in the SEZ, the Thai-Myanmar SPV continues
to look for new investors. The viability of the SEZ depends on successful implementation of the planned infrastructure
developments. Until the remaining $40 billion is secured, therefore, its fate is on hold.

the critical role that the private sector can play, it will
be essential for LLDCs to adopt measures to boost
investment, in particular investment in infrastructure
for transport, telecommunications and utilities.
An analysis of FDI indicators (table II.10) over the past
10 years reveals a mixed performance in LLDCs.
In terms of FDI growth, they fared better than the
global average but worse than other developing
countries as a group. Among LLDCs, FDI growth
in the Latin American and African subregions was
stronger than in the transition economies and
Asian subregion. Looking at the importance of FDI
for LLDC economies, in terms of the share of FDI
stock in GDP, it has averaged 5 percentage points
higher than in developing countries, revealing the
importance of foreign investment for growth in
the LLDCs. In terms of the ratio of FDI to gross
fixed capital formation (GFCF) one of the building
blocks of development FDIs role was again more
important for LLDCs than for developing economies
over the previous 10 years. And LLDCs registered a
much stronger growth rate in GVC participation than
either the developing-country or the global average.

Box II.8. TNCs in the extractive industry in Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste
Papua New Guinea has high prospects for oil and gas, with deposits of both found across its territory. The most
developed of its projects is the liquefied natural gas (LNG) project led by ExxonMobil,102 which is expected to begin
production in 2014. It will produce 6.6 million tonnes of LNG per year for end users in Taiwan Province of China,
Japan and China. The project cost is now estimated at $19 billion, significantly more than the initial cost ceiling of $15
billion. A potential second project is the Gulf LNG project initially driven by InterOil (United States) and now operated
by Total (France), which took a majority share in 2013. Oil and gas drilling by foreign companies is continuing apace,
with plenty of untapped potential and more gas and oil being discovered each year.
Papua New Guinea is also rich in metal mining, with copper and gold being the major mineral commodities produced.
The country is estimated to be the 11th largest producer of gold, accounting for about 2.6 per cent of global
production. It also has deposits of chromite, cobalt, nickel and molybdenum. Several international mining companies
are majority owners or shareholders in metal-producing operations, including Newcrest Mining (Australia), Harmony
Gold Mining (South Africa), Barrick Gold (Canada), New Guinea Gold (Canada) and MCC (China).
Timor-Leste has many oil and gas deposits both onshore and offshore, although most petroleum development
has been far offshore. It also has significant untapped mineral potential in copper, gold, silver and chromite, but
the mountainous terrain and poor infrastructure have impeded widespread exploration and development. Major
oil and gas discoveries in the Timor Sea in 1994 have led to the development of a large-scale offshore oil industry.
ConocoPhillips, Eni, Santos, INPEX Woodside, Shell and Osaka Gas are among the international oil companies
operating there.

Notes
stimates for Africas middle class vary considerably among
E
sources. The figure quoted is consistent with those of the African
Development Bank (AfDB) and the Standard Chartered Bank
regional head of research for Africa. It is based on a definition
of middle class that includes people spending between $4 and
$20 per day. This class of consumers represented in 2010
more than 13 per cent of the continents population.

The African Union recognizes eight RECs as the building
blocks of an eventual African Economic Community: the Arab
Maghreb Union (UMA), the Common Market for East and
Southern Africa (COMESA), the Community of Sahel-Saharan
States (CENSAD), the Economic Community of Central
African States (ECCAS), the East African Community (EAC),
the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS),
the Inter-Governmental Authority for Development (IGAD) and
the Southern African Development Community (SADC). Other
regional groups exist, but are not among these building blocks.
Moreover, some of the RECs recognized by the African Union
are not active. Thus, in this section, the analysis is limited to
the major RECs: COMESA, SADC, ECOWAS, ECCAS, UMA
and EAC.

This involves the negotiation of seven main technical issues:
(1) rules of origin; (2) non-tariff barriers; (3) standardization,
metrology, conformity, assessment and accreditation (i.e.
technical barriers to trade), and sanitary and phytosanitary
measures; (4) customs cooperation, documentation,
procedures and transit instruments; (5) trade remedies; (6)
dispute settlement; and (7) tariff liberalization.
5
Intra-African trade has increased fourfold since 2000, though
its share in global trade has remained constant over the last
decade at 1114 per cent.
6
Conclusive analysis of the impact of regional integration on FDI
would require data on bilateral FDI flows and detailed sectoral
data, which are not available for most African countries. There
is also some degree of imprecision in FDI data for Africa
related to the large scale of the informal economy. The analysis
presented here relies on announced greenfield data.
7
For example, 60 per cent of Japanese companies in Africa cite
transport and energy service gaps as their biggest problems,
according to a survey by the Japan External Trade Organization.
8
Investment patterns as well as the establishment of special
Chinese trade and investment zones in Africa lend some
support to this hypothesis (Brautigam and Tang, 2011).
9
By the middle of the century, Africas working-age population will
number 1.2 billion, from about 500 million today, meaning it will
provide one in four of the worlds workers, compared with one
in eight from China.
10
For instance, according to a policy document released in
December 2013, overseas investment projects below $1
billion are not subject to government approval.

12
However, controversy and political turmoil related to the
Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement have cast doubt on the
prospects for FDI in services. The agreement, signed in June
2013, aimed to substantially liberalize trade in services between
mainland China and Taiwan Province of China. Under the
terms of the treaty, service industries such as banking, health
care, tourism, film, telecommunications and publishing will be
opened to bilateral investment.
