Example: A citizen or a company in America when invest money into the business of India, the investment made by such American Citizen, shall be termed as FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT. <\/strong><\/p>\n Foreign direct\u00a0investments\u00a0are distinguished from portfolio investments in which an investor merely purchases\u00a0equities\u00a0of foreign-based companies. The key feature of foreign direct investment is that it is an investment made that establishes either effective control of, or at least substantial influence over, the decision making of a foreign business.<\/p>\n Foreign\u00a0direct investments\u00a0are commonly made in open\u00a0economies, as opposed to tightly regulated economies, that offer a skilled workforce and above average growth prospects for the investor. Moreover, there may be a no. of countries which may or may not allow the Foreign Direct Investment in their own countries. However, Foreign direct investment frequently involves more than just a capital investment. It may include provision of management or technology as well.<\/p>\n Foreign direct investments can be made in a variety of ways, including the opening of a\u00a0subsidiary\u00a0or\u00a0associate company\u00a0in a foreign country, acquiring a controlling interest in an existing foreign company, or by means of a\u00a0merger\u00a0or joint venture with a foreign company.<\/p>\n Foreign direct investments are commonly categorized as being horizontal, vertical or conglomerate in nature.<\/p>\n Horizontal direct investment:<\/u><\/strong> It refers to the investor establishing the same type of business operation in a foreign country as it operates in its home country, for example, a cell phone provider based in the United States opening up stores in China.<\/p>\n Vertical investment:<\/u><\/strong> It is the one in which different but related business activities from the investor’s main business are established or acquired in a foreign country, such as when a manufacturing company acquires an interest in a foreign company that supplies parts or raw materials required for the manufacturing company to make its products.<\/p>\n Conglomerate type of foreign direct investment<\/u><\/strong>: It is the one where a company or individual makes a foreign investment in a business that is unrelated to its existing business in its home country. Since this type of investment involves entering an industry the investor has no previous experience in, it often takes the form of a\u00a0joint venture\u00a0with a foreign company already operating in the industry.<\/p>\n Foreign Direct Investment<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>(FDI) in India<\/strong>\u00a0is the major monetary source for\u00a0economic development in India. Foreign companies invest directly in fast growing private Indian businesses to take benefits of cheaper wages and changing business environment of India. Economic liberalisation\u00a0started in India in wake of\u00a0the 1991 economic crisis\u00a0and since then FDI has steadily increased in India. It were Manmohan Singh and P. V Narasimha Rao who brought FDI in India, which subsequently generated more than one crore jobs. According to the\u00a0Financial Times<\/em><\/a>, in 2015 India overtook\u00a0China\u00a0and the\u00a0US\u00a0as the top destination for the Foreign Direct Investment. In first half of the 2015, India attracted investment of $31 billion compared to $28 billion and $27 billion of China and the US respectively. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Source: Source of Data of investment is from Wikipedia<\/p>\n The\u00a0Government of India\u00a0has amended FDI policy to increase FDI inflow.
