About Us

Welcome to fDimagazine.com - the internet portal of fDi Magazine. fDi has established itself as the single most trusted source of information for those companies involved with cross-border expansion. Throughout this year, we intend to carry on doing more of the same: investigating issues that concern foreign investors, talking to leading corporate executives and government leaders, and highlighting the many opportunities and risks that await investors around the world. In addition, we will be continuing our research into the most attractive investment locations though our unique "Countries/Regions/Cities of the Future" benchmarks.

Produced by the renowned Financial Times group, fDi is the premier publication for the business of globalisation, and is published on a bi-monthly basis with an ABC-certified circulation of just over 15,000. Our experienced journalists and foreign correspondents provide on-the-ground reporting of the issues and developments that corporate executives must consider when making investment decisions. Over the summer of 2007, fDi will undergo a facelift - this is designed to ease navigation as well providing more succinct sections to create more space for informative features and articles. The website will follow suit in early 2008.

In May 2007, we launched the next phase of this portal - the fDi Atlas - www.fdiatlas.com. This tool has been specifically designed to assist companies involved with cross-border investment. After months of research and development, this tool was launched on May 15th. The launch was preceeded by a marketing campaign in both fDi Magazine and the FT Newspaper. This campaign will continue over the coming months and years as the Atlas grows. Senior corporate executives will be able to search for information on different countries, regions and cities at the click on a button - they will also be able to search by industry sector as well as by geographical region - this type of information has never been available before in one place! We will be adding new features to the Atlas over the coming months.

We hope you enjoy this website.
