Benchmarking FDI performance and potential

Benchmarking national economies is now an important tool for policy-making (Lall, 2001b). Comparisons with similar economies are a good indication of how well countries are doing against the competition, while comparisons with better performing economies can show where to head in the future. Since attracting FDI is now an important policy concern for countries at all levels of development, it is useful to develop benchmarks of inward FDI performance.
