Practice Areas - Domestic and Foreign Investment

MAG partners and associates have broad experience in advising governments−both national and local−on how to create a "country vision" and improve their comparative advantages to attract desirable foreign investors into different sectors of the economy. MAG also advises governments on how to make investments in infrastructure and other sectors attractive to local entrepreneurs so that they invest at home rather than abroad. To be productive and mutually beneficial, the relationship between governments and investors needs constant attention. MAG advises governments on how to treat investors−both national and foreign−to ensure that they take advantage of the opportunities the country presents to expand their investments in the local economy. MAG consultants also advise private companies and banks on opportunities and risks of investing in emerging markets and on how to finance their operations, depending on local and international conditions. They also advise such clients interested in joint ventures or public-private partnerships (PPPs)/
