Although the Asia-Pacific region remains a major investment destination, foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in the region declined slightly in 2016. This decline may be attributed to timid growth, low commodity prices, and structural reforms towards higher value-added industries in leading economies in the region. On the contrary, FDI outflows from the region increased significantly, further establishing the region as a major outward investor. Overall, the different subregions and economies in the Asia-Pacific region performed heterogeneously.
