UNCTAD's new publication to be released on 5 July shows that overlapping global crises - the war in Ukraine, high food and energy prices and debt pressures - slashed foreign direct investment flows in 2022.
The report focuses on investing in sustainable energy for all, revealing that much of the growth in international investment in renewable energy has been concentrated in developed countries.
UNCTAD calls for urgent support to developing countries to bridge the gap by attracting massive investment in clean energy.
The report also shows that the investment gap across all sectors of the Sustainable Development Goals has nearly doubled since 2015.
It provides data, forecasts and analysis of foreign direct investment flows globally, regionally and by country.
