Global Investment Policies in the Context of the Covid-19 Pandemic: Prospects and Obstacles

Abstract

This paper examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on investment policies in developed countries and the long-term implications of these policies. The pandemic has created both challenges and opportunities for investors in different sectors, with the healthcare and technology sectors being the most attractive for investment in many countries. International cooperation has also been highlighted as a critical factor in economic recovery and growth, with the G20 and APEC playing significant roles. However, in the long term, the pandemic is likely to have lasting effects on consumer behavior and how companies operate, which could impact investment strategies in the years to come. This paper concludes with recommendations for developing countries to attract and benefit from foreign investment in a post-pandemic world.
