Brazil is the second country with the highest flow of foreign direct investment, says the OECD

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) reported that Brazil is the second country that received the most flows of foreign direct investment (FDI), only behind the United States in the first six months of the year, according to a report published this Thursday (31).

From a global perspective, FDI flow recovered to $802 billion in the first half of 2024.

“FDI flows into Brazil remained stable, as movements in intra-corporate loans and higher reinvested profits offset a decline in capital flows,” explains the OECD.

In the document, the OECD mentions that FDI flows towards Porcelain continued to decrease, due to the context of geopolitical risk and economic uncertainty in the country.

According to the organization, these factors influence the confidence of foreign investors.
