InvestIng In the SDDGs: An ActIon PlAn
“This
edition of the World Investment Report provides
valuable analysis that can inform global discussions on how to
accelerate progress toward the Millennium Development Goals and shape a
long-range vision for a more sustainable future beyond 2015.
The Report
reveals an encouraging trend: after a decline in 2012, global foreign
direct investment flows rose by 9 per cent in 2013, with growth expected
to continue in the years to come. This demonstrates the great potential
of international investment, along with other financial resources, to
help reach the goals of a post-2015 agenda for sustainable development.
Transnational corporations can support this effort by creating decent
jobs, generating exports, promoting rights, respecting the environment,
encouraging local content, paying fair taxes and transferring capital,
technology and business contacts to spur development.
This year’s
World Investment Report offers a global action plan for galvanizing the
role of businesses in achieving future sustainable development goals,
and enhancing the private sector’s positive economic, social and
environmental impacts. The Report identifies the financing gap,
especially in vulnerable economies, assesses the primary sources of
funds for bridging the gap, and proposes policy options for the
future.” (Ban Ki-moon)
