Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) continued its steep decline from its peak in 2008. In 2010, FDI stood at USD 483 million, almost 60 percent below where it was in 2008. Had it not been for the investment by the french, mostly in telecom, this would have been much lower.

Below are figures for the countries with the largest FDI. As always, more detail is provided on aea.am or here.
