The 2013 edition of The fDi Report shows that multinational enterprises minimise their tax burden through overseas operations and analyses how this relationship impacts on foreign direct investment (FDI).

The report also identifies the latest foreign direct investment trends across the globe. The slow recovery in global greenfield foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2011 ground to a halt in 2012, with the second biggest decline in FDI since the start of the world recession. But although all world regions experienced a decline in FDI a number of countries experienced strong growth in inward investment projects: Chile, Spain, Indonesia, Poland and Oman.

Among the countries, Chile replaced Brazil this year as the star performer. In North America, most states and provinces experienced a decline in FDI, with Michigan the outstanding exception achieving a 60% growth in FDI projects. Alabama also achieved strong growth. The two states’ excellent performances reflect the rebound of the automotive sector in the US. In Europe the UK performed slightly better than the other countries as a whole, increasing its market share of the FDI into the region to 20.87% in 2012, the highest of any European country.

This year’s fDi Report also has a focus on the BRIC economies. In recent years these countries have attracted more than 22% of global FDI projects, however, their share declined in 2012 to 17.6%.

Highlights include:

• Governments face a huge challenge in ensuring that that multinational enterprises pay the tax due without undermining their country’s attractiveness for FDI. Coordinated multilateral action would seem the only way to achieve this
• With a challenging economic and political environment, the global recovery in FDI stopped in 2012. The number of FDI projects declined by 16.38% in 2012, in contrast with the 8.54% increase in 2011
• The UK and Germany accounted for 45.45% of FDI out of western Europe
• Investment to Chile is driven by sustained 5%-plus GDP growth rates, an influx of renewable energy investments attracted by the country’s excellent conditions for solar power and electricity demand from the mining sector
• FDI into China, India and Russia peaked in 2008 and has not recovered since. FDI into Brazil, after a record high in 2011, experienced a decline in 2012. The number of FDI projects in China and Russia in 2012 was the lowest in the past decade. With Brazil struggling to regain growth, Russia muddling along, and growth levels in China and India falling, we expect the market share of BRICs in global FDI to continue to decline in 2013
• Asia-Pacific remained the leading regional destination for FDI in 2012, with 3,740 projects tracked, increasing its global market share to 31.72%
• Although FDI into the Middle East fell in 2012, it was the only region to increase its volume of outbound FDI in 2012, with FDI projects from the region growing by 15.74%
• Despite a decline in outward FDI, western European enterprises remained the leading source of FDI overseas, accounting for 43.12% of global FDI projects in 2012
• The top five sectors for FDI projects in 2012 remained the same as 2011:  business and financial services; information and communications technology (ICT); transport equipment; engines, turbines and industrial machinery; and chemicals, plastics and rubber the leading sectors.

According to WealthInsight analyst Andrew Amolis:

“Towns in the London commuter belt dominate the top 10, although it is interesting to see that a couple small towns around Manchester also make the list. This reflects the affluent nature of the Cheshire area.”

“Henley is the fastest growing town on the list with millionaire numbers there rising by 25% over the period between 2007 and 2012. This compares very well with general UK millionaire numbers which declined by 9% over that period.”

“Beaconsfield’s high ranking is unsurprising as it has the highest average house price outside of London (over US$750,000 per home). It also has the highest average income per household of US$110,000.”

“Alderley Edge is considered to be the most affluent town in the North West, particularly Whitebarn Road which is one of the most expensive streets in the UK.”

Finally, Amolis made reference to those towns that narrowly missed out on the top 10, which included:

“Burford, Chipping Campden, Dartmouth, Ilkley, Leatherhead, Lyndhurst, Pangbourne, Ponteland, Virginia Water and Windermere. These towns each have over 200 millionaires.”

In today’s volatile economy, can you really trust real estate, stocks and bonds or paper currencies? Many investors have lost millions of dollars in the past couple years. You may be asking yourself: what is the best thing I can do to make sure my retirement savings are always growing and minimize the risks? The answer is simple: precious metals.

Why Precious metals

Have you looked at the evolution of the price of gold and silver in the past 50 years?

Do you know of any other type of investment that has had a similar track record in over 50 years? Probably not. Only gold and silver have proved to be recession-proof and kept delivering positive ROIs to their investors in over 50 years.

Type of gold to invest in

Most investors prefer to buy gold bullion coins or bars, such as the American gold eagle, Canadian gold maple leaf or South African Krugerrand. These coins have legal tender and are minted at the highest purity levels. There many gold bullion coins available on the market today. Find a full list on this page.

Billionaires, Banks and Governments are investing

Did you know the China and India bought tons of gold in the past 5 years? Did you know that billionaires like George Soros, Donald Trump, John Paulson and Carlos Slim have invested billions of dollars in gold since 2008? It is a mistake to think that precious metals are only for the rich. Everybody can invest in gold or silver, whether it is by actually buying physical precious metals or investing through your IRA or 401k retirement plans.

Investing through your IRA

If you have a Roth or self-directed IRA, you should know that you can convert part of it to precious metals, including gold, silver, palladium and platinum. Doing this will allow you to invest in gold while avoiding your returns to be taxed. In fact, the IRS allows you to invest in certain gold bullion coins for as long as an accredited custodian is holding your gold, not you.

If you own a 401k from a former employer, you can also convert it to gold and still avoid being taxed.

Bottomline

While no one can accurately predict where the price of gold is going, most financial analysts are saying that the landscape for precious metals is looking much more positive than real estate, stocks and paper currencies. Gold and silver have remained strong through 2 recessions. The demand for precious metals from countries like India and China keeps rising, and there is only a limited amount of precious metals on earth. The demand is increasing and the supply isn’t. It’s up to you to decide whether investing in gold is right for you.
