Repatriation of foreign investment refers to the ability of the foreign investor to remove its investments and profits made from the host country where the mining project is realized. Repatriation of foreign investments therefore refers to the ability of the foreign investor to return those profits to the home jurisdiction of the foreign investor or to invest them in another jurisdiction.
