"This Occasional Paper develops a comprehensive portrait of the practices, rules, and regulations that can impede foreign direct investment (FDI) in the G-7 countries. It serves to summarize and synthesize the companion Occasional Paper on the G-7 countries, which provides detailed analysis of the investment regimes in each jurisdiction. It takes stock of the combined effects of formal and informal barriers in the G-7 countries and demonstrates how the interaction between the different types of barriers actually works. It also highlights the principal lessons derived from the analysis and draws out the policy implications"--Introduction, page 1.
