Foreign direct investment (FDI) refers to direct investment into production or business operations in a country by a company located in another country, such as by establishing subsidiaries or acquiring domestic firms. Foreign portfolio investment (FPI) involves passive investment in a country's financial assets rather than management control. While both FDI and FPI bring capital into a country, FDI is generally considered longer-term and brings additional benefits like job creation, technology transfer, and infrastructure development. The document outlines the definitions, advantages, and differences between FDI and FPI.

4. What Is FDI?
Foreign direct investment (FDI) occurs when a firm invests
directly in new facilities to produce and/or market in a foreign
country
the firm becomes a multinational enterprise
The flow of FDI refers to the amount of FDI undertaken over a
given time period
Outflows of FDI are the flows of FDI out of a country
Inflows of FDI are the flows of FDI into a country
The stock of FDI refers to the total accumulated value of
foreign-owned assets at a given time

5. FDI can be in the form of
Greenfield investments - the establishment of a wholly
new operation in a foreign country
acquisitions or mergers with existing firms in the foreign
country
Brown field Investments - When a company or
government entity purchases or leases existing production
facilities to launch a new production activity. This is one
strategy used in foreign-direct investment.

6. How Does FDI Benefit
The Host Country?
There are main benefits of inward FDI for a host country
1. Resource transfer effects - FDI brings capital, technology,
and management resources
2. Employment effects - FDI can bring jobs
3. Balance of payments effects - FDI can help a country to
achieve a current account surplus
4. Effects on competition and economic growth - greenfield
investments increase the level of competition in a market,
driving down prices and improving the welfare of
consumers
can lead to increased productivity growth, product and process
innovation, and greater economic growth

Inflows of foreign stable capital into the country
Helps in the transition to privatization (when state
owned firms are sold to foreign investors)
Improves the countries’ infrastructures
Brings foreign executives into the country with
sufficient knowledge of macroeconomic global and
local situations

8. What Are The Costs Of
FDI To The Host Country?
Inward FDI has three main costs:
1. Adverse effects of FDI on competition within the host nation
subsidiaries of foreign MNEs may have greater economic power than
indigenous competitors because they may be part of a larger
international organization
2. Adverse effects on the balance of payments
when a foreign subsidiary imports a substantial number of its inputs
from abroad, there is a debit on the current account of the host
country’s balance of payments
3. Perceived loss of national sovereignty and autonomy
decisions that affect the host country will be made by a foreign
parent that has no real commitment to the host country, and over
which the host country’s government has no real control
7-8
9. How Does Government
Influence FDI?
Governments can encourage outward FDI
government-backed insurance programs to cover major types of foreign
investment risk
Governments can restrict outward FDI
limit capital outflows, manipulate tax rules, or outright prohibit FDI
Governments can encourage inward FDI
offer incentives to foreign firms to invest in their countries
gain from the resource-transfer and employment effects of FDI, and capture
FDI away from other potential host countries
Governments can restrict inward FDI
use ownership restraints and performance requirements
7-9
10. How Do International
Institutions Influence FDI?
Until the 1990s, there was no consistent involvement by
multinational institutions in the governing of FDI
Today, the World Trade Organization is changing this by
trying to establish a universal set of rules designed to
promote the liberalization of FDI

11. An Overview of India-FDI
UNCTAD ranked India at 3rd position in 2010 as the attractive
destination for FDI, which further rose to secondmost attractive
destination for FDI in 2012, as ranked by A.T. Kearney FDI
Confidence Index.

13. FDI Policies and Limits in india
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in India is subject to
certain Rules and Regulations and is subject to predefined
limits ('Limits') in various sectors which range from 20%
to 100%.
There are also some sectors in which FDI is prohibited.
The FDI Limits are reviewed by the Government from
time to time.
FDI is allowed in new sectors where the limits of
investment in the existing sectors are modified
accordingly.

14. In order to revise the FDI Limits to attract more
foreign investment in India, the Union Government
constituted a committee named, Arvind Mayaram
Committee headed by the Economic Affairs Secretary.
On 16th July, 2013, the Government approved the
recommendations given by the Arvind Mayaram
Committee to increase FDI limits in 12 sectors out of
the proposed 20 sectors, including crucial ones such as
defense and telecom.

20. Factors Affecting FDI In india
Favourable:
Larze size of economy.
Rich resource base.
Cheap Labour.
Removal of barrier to
foreign trade.
Abundant technical
supply of manpower
Unfavourable:
Beuracratic Culture.
High Tax Rate
Poor governance
High degree of
corruption.

21. India should welcome FDI as it has huge benefits for the
Indian economy.
FDI participation always brings prosperity for any
emerging country.
Various benefits which India can entice by
liberalising FDI are use of advanced technology,
expertise, better infrastructural developments, widened
product basket, improving standard of living, uplifting
the brand quality, improving competitiveness, better
foreign relations, boosting exports, and providing India
with a global platform.
The debated views of FDI in multi brand have certainly
hindered the flow in retailing

What is FPI
Foreign Porfolio Investment (FPI):
1. FPI denotes all those investors or investment companies that are not located within
the territory of the country in which they are investing.
2.In economics foreign portfolio investment is the entry of funds into a country
where foreigners make purchases in the country’s stock and bond markets,
sometimes for speculation
3. Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI): passive holdings of securities and other
financial assets, which do NOT entail active management or control of the
securities's issuer.
4.FPI is positively influenced by high rates of return and reduction of risk through
geographic diversification. The return on FPI is normally in the form of interest
payments or non-voting dividends.
5.“SEBI’s definition of FPIs presently includes foreign pension funds, mutual funds,
charitable/endowment/university funds etc. as well as asset management companies
and other money managers operating on their behalf.”
28. Advantage of FPI
Enhanced flows of equity capital
FIIs have a greater appetite for equity than debt.. It improve capital
structures.
Managing uncertainty and controlling risks.
FPI inflows help in financial innovation and development of hedging
instruments.
Improving capital markets.
FPIs as professional bodies of asset managers and financial analysts
enhance competition and efficiency of financial markets.
Equity market development aids economic development.
FPIs can help in the process of economic development.
Improved corporate governance.
FPIs constitute professional bodies, improve corporate governance.
28
29. Disadvantages of FPI
Problems of Inflation
Hot Money
Political Risk represented by the possibility of change in the political
environment resulting in change in investment norms and repatriation
regulations.
Emerging markets which are the beneficiaries of most FPI traditionally suffer
from low retail participation which results in inadequate liquidity which results
in price volatility.
Due to the unpredictable nature of such funds there is a tendency to shift from
one market to another at short intervals. Volatility arising out of FPI inflows and
outflowshas adverse effects on the host country economy.
Emerging economics tend to have depreciation prone currencies. This exposes
the foreign investor to exchange rate risk on both principal and returns.

30. FII Investments & Market Reaction

While strong inflow of funds from foreign
institutional investors (FIIs) has been a
reason to cheer, it could turn into a
nightmare and if the global investors
make a sudden exit can send the
bourses crashing.
