Abstract

There are no regular published data or estimates of foreign direct investment in Bangladesh. Existing US investment consists of three pharmaceutical factories, a sewing machine factory, a plastic pipe plant, a commercial bank, a life insurance company, and storage and processing facilities for edible oil. There is also investment in office and transport equipment of about 10 American service sector firms. Investment from the UK exceeds that from other countries with Dutch investment roughly equal to American, and Japanese and Korean following closely. There is also some inward investment from Thailand, India and Singapore.
