Preferred term

investment incentive  

Definition

  • Investment incentives are policies implemented by governments on local, regional, national, and supranational levels to induce new investors to establish a presence, or to make existing business expand or not relocate elsewhere. The general aim of investment incentives is to influence the locational decision of the investor and thus to reap the positive effects of foreign direct investment (FDI).
