It received US$4,010 million, a figure 25% higher than in 2021 and the highest in the last 30 years highlighted yesterday by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leaders in Latin America and the Caribbean are in first place Brazil with US$91,502 million; Mexico with US$ 38,932 million; Chile with US$ 20,865 million; Colombia with US$ 16,869 million; Argentina US$ 15,408 million; Peru US$ 10,848 million; Uruguay US$ 9,325 million and Guyana US$ 4,389 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, US$224,579 million of FDI entered Latin America and the Caribbean, a figure 55.2% higher than that recorded in 2021 and the highest value since records have been kept, notes the annual report Foreign Direct Investment in Latin America and the Caribbean 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regionally, the Dominican Republic&#8217;s FDI in 2022 represents 1.8% of the total received by Latin America and the Caribbean. Leading the list was Brazil (which received 41% of the regional total and ranked as the fifth destination for global FDI), followed by Mexico (17%), Chile (9%), Colombia (8%), Argentina (7%) and Peru (5%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Caribbean, Guyana maintained its leadership and, together with the Dominican Republic, accounted for 89% of FDI from its 15 countries or territories. Although Guyana&#8217;s investments decreased 1.5%. The total for the Caribbean received US$9.74 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the Dominican Republic is compared to the six Central American countries, it is the one that received the most FDI in 2022. That sub-region received US$9,813 million, led by Costa Rica with US$3,673 million, followed by Panama with US$2,513 million, and Guatemala with US$1,352 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to data shared by ECLAC yesterday, when examining the components of the Dominican Republic&#8217;s FDI, it can be seen that this increase was due to a 39% increase in capital inflows, which represented 56% of total inflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the second largest component, reinvestment of profits (36% of the total), decreased by 14% compared to the previous year. And the remaining 8% was intercompany loans, which recorded a significant rise compared to the negative result obtained in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the sectors, the 29% growth in services stood out, which registered record inflows in 2022, with US$3,034 million, representing 76% of total FDI inflows to the country. The second sector was manufacturing, which accounted for 15% of the total and in 2022 received 95% more inflows than in 2021. On the other hand, the natural resources sector (representing 9% of the total) received 30% less inflows than in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United States continues to be the largest foreign investor, with 38% of the total received. In addition, FDI inflows originating in that country grew by 8% compared to 2021. As for other investor countries, the 63% growth in capital from Spain stands out, representing 9% of the total invested in 2022, trailing only Mexico (with 10% of the total, representing a 1% growth in the year under analysis) and Canada (also with 9%, representing a 4% decrease).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dominican Republic was the second largest recipient of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the Caribbean, after Guyana, and the ninth in Latin America and the Caribbean in 2022.
