Abstract

This chapter considers the platform of existing theory on which an acceptable treatment of risk and FDI can be built.1 It is appropriate to consider at some length the way in which risk is treated in the financial literature and to show its limited relevance to the appraisal of foreign direct investment. It is also necessary to place the FDI decision in the context of the investment decision-making process in general.
