fDi Markets tracks crossborder investment in a new physical project or expansion of an existing investment which creates new jobs and capital investment.
Joint ventures are only included where they lead to a new physical operation. Mergers & acquisitions (M&A) and other equity investments are not tracked.
There is no minimum size for a project to be included.
Data is collected in real-time as announced by a company and provided as a daily e-mail newswire and live updates online. Data goes through a rigorous quality control process, before being published at the end of each month to the Trends Analysis and reporting tools.
fDi Markets tracks information on capital investment and direct jobs associated with an FDI project.
As companies do not always release information on investment amount or job creation, a proprietary econometric algorithm estimates the jobs and investment where the actual value is not known.
Subscribers have the option on fDi Markets to include or exclude these estimates.
Each project tracked by fDi Markets is classified and tagged according to its cluster, sector, sub-sector and business activity, based on a proprietary industry classification system.
A team of in-house analysts daily search the following sources:
Each project identified is cross-referenced against multiple sources, with primary focus on direct company sources.
