<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This report highlights investor sentiment amid rising global uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, and regulatory shifts. Developed markets dominate the rankings, with the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom leading, while emerging markets see mixed performance. Investors prioritize domestic economic performance, efficient legal and regulatory processes, and technological innovation as key factors for foreign direct investment. Risks such as commodity price increases, restrictive regulations, and political instability weigh heavily on decision-making. Despite challenges, optimism persists for FDI flows, with Europe viewed as stable yet facing competitiveness and immigration concerns. The report underscores the need for strategic adaptability in a volatile global environment</abstract>
