Australia’s exposure to regional economic disruption: Investment
By Dr Jeffrey Wilson
Research Director Dr Jeffrey Wilson authors the fifth edition in our Indo-Pacific Analysis Brief series, Australia’s exposure to regional economic disruption: Investment, which discusses how the COVID-related recession will significantly dampen international capital flows in 2020.
His brief outlines the sectors which will be most affected, and how recent changes to FIRB processes will place additional regulatory burdens on firms seeking foreign investment.
