3. Foreign Direct Investment
Foreign direct investment (FDI): a firm
invests directly in foreign facilities.
A firm that engages in FDI becomes a
Multi-National Enterprise (MNE).
Involves ownership of entity abroad for:
Production
Marketing/service
R&D
Access of raw materials or other resource.
4. Foreign Direct Investment
Number of ways - either by setting up a
subsidiary or associate company in the foreign
country, by acquiring shares of an overseas
company, or through a merger or joint venture.
An example of foreign direct investment would
be an American company taking a majority stake
in a company in China.
Another example would be a Canadian company
setting up a joint venture to develop a mineral
deposit in Chile.
6. SOCIALIST ECONOMY
Socialism is an Economic System where the means
of production, such as money and other forms of
capital, are owned by the state or public. Under a
socialist system, everyone works for wealth that is, in
turn, distributed to everyone.
The government decides how wealth is distributed
among the people.
Socialism can actually lower the living standards of
all by not rewarding work and by making public
assistance available to more than the neediest.

12. CAPITALIST ECONOMY
Capitalism is the social system which now exists in
all countries of the world.
Under this system, the means for producing and
distributing goods (the land, factories, technology,
transport system etc) are owned by a small minority of
people. We refer to this group of people as the
capitalist class.

15. FDI – SOUTHAFRICA - PROS
Nationalization doesn't have to cut out the private
sector completely.
Partnerships in Namibia and Bots wanna between
mining companies and the government have seen little
decrease in foreign investments.
The private sector handles the funding and
operations of the mining industry, while the
government regulates manufacturing while remaining
in control of the mineral resources.
Appealing for leading to a diversification of foreign
investments and assets
16. FDI – SOUTHAFRICA - PROS
Nationalizing the mines could, in the short term, make it
better off on the whole. If ownership of the mines is turned over
to the state, future profits and current could be used towards
creating news jobs, and providing more state services for the
betterment of the South African people.
Ownership of the mining industry turned over to the public
sector, investors and private sector previously involved in mining
able to focus other industries. And would make them more
wealthy and competitive on a domestic and global level.
17. FDI – SOUTHAFRICA - CONS
Nationalizing the mines could significantly decrease foreign
investment at risk with government ownership of the industry.
It could make South Africa less competitive on the global
stage.
Nonexistent, insufficient, or slow compensation to former
investors could deter them from investing
Creates a logistics issue. If outside firms were involved with
the transportation or creation of infrastructure
19. MIXED ECONOMY
Mixed economy is an economic system in which both
the state and private sector direct the economy,
reflecting characteristics of both market economies
and planned economies.
It is the combination of Capitalist and Socialist
economy.
India had adopted a mixed economy after
independence with the intention of procuring the
advantages of both and avoiding their disadvantages.
20. MIXED ECONOMY
Need of a developing economy like India in the
initial stages.
