Abstract
For reasons to do with balance of payments, employment and expertise, national governments are generally keen to attract inward investment into their countries. As a result, they are increasingly competing against each other in order to secure corporate inward investment. To succeed in this a country must offer sufficient incentives to lure the investor away from the competition, and it must minimise disincentives in the form of corporate costs.
