Abstract

For the period 2001-2007, Canada ranked only 25th among 98 countries in its openness to world markets as measured by cross-border investment flows as a percentage of GDP. For inbound investment flows alone, it ranked 47th. Canada should look to dismantle barriers to both inbound and outbound foreign investment to increase business exposure to global competition.
