Walking the Talk of Covid through Investment Policies

Overview

The paper looks into the historical shift from mid-2021 in foreign direct investment (FDI) and other investment policies in the host countries, considering the similarities and differences in light of COVID19. It argues that global adverse events lead to convergence in the investment policy response of the countries, for example, Australia, India, P.R, China, and the USA. It further discusses the shift in policy implications for such countries. Towards the end, it recommends ways for the economies to work together to reach a shared objective of recovery post-COVID-19 and also looks domestically for the recovery.
