Six Years in a Row: U.S. Seen as the World’s Top Business Destination

The following is a cross-post from Tradeology, the International Trade Administration blog.

The United States has, for an incredible sixth year in a row, topped A.T. Kearney’s Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Confidence Index, an annual ranking of CEO and investor confidence in global markets. That unmistakable confidence has spoken again, and the latest report extends the United States’ winning streak into 2018.

It’s easy to see why business investors from around the world select the USA. Whether a company is looking for a skilled and educated workforce, access to fast and efficient supply chains, a business-friendly regulatory system, or all the above, the United States is the best place to start and grow a business.

America’s economic resurgence is in full swing, and the Trump Administration is focused on turning that into a permanent reality. Tax and regulatory reform, combined with pro-growth policies, are leading to record-breaking economic growth. Global executives have noticed and continue to show their confidence with job-creating investment.

The SelectUSA team will be here to help as more businesses look at their U.S. expansion options. Through services like market research, counseling, and assistance in navigating the federal regulatory environment, SelectUSA connects investors with the resources and information they need to succeed.

The 2018 SelectUSA Investment Summit—the top FDI event in the country—will bring U.S. economic developers face to face with investors from every corner of the globe June 20-22 in the Washington, DC area. Senior government officials, CEOs of high-profile companies, and other FDI experts will provide attendees with insight into the latest developments and trends in international investment.

If you are looking to enter or expand into the U.S. market, the Investment Summit is a must-attend event. The latest FDI Confidence Index underscores the fact that the United States is open for business; the Investment Summit will show how your business can take advantage of the opportunities offered in the world’s largest and most attractive market. I hope you’ll join me this summer.
