India, China Top FDI Destinations

India and China are among the top destinations for Foreign Direct Investments while the world''s centre of power continues its perceptible shift from developed to developing markets. The two South Asian neighbours are among the 25 most attractive FDI destinations, according to Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Confidence Index by AT Kearney. Emerging markets also have registered the strongest investor optimism, with India, China, Brazil, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam experiencing the most positive change in investment outlook during the last year, the firm said. While China and India remain the top destinations for first-time investments overall, developing country investors are more bullish about new markets such as Vietnam, Brazil and South Africa, while developed market investors tend to stick to familiar markets.
