内蒙古多少个市:国际货币基金组织关于外商投资的定义

以下是IMF对直接投资的定义:直接投资是在一经济领域的企业取得持久利益的投资,投资者的目的是对该企业享有有效的选择权.
以下是来自IMF电子刊物<Balance of Payments Manual>1993年,自己翻译过来就可以了:
Direct investment is the category of international investment that reflects the objective of a resident entityin one economy obtaining a lasting interest in an enterprise resident in another economy. (The resident entity is the direct investor and the enterprise is the direct investment enterprise.) The lasting interest implies the existence of a long-term relationship
between the direct investor and the enterprise and a significant degree of influence by the investor on the management of the enterprise. Direct investment comprises not only the initial transaction establishing the relationship between the investor and the enterprise but also all subsequent transactions between them and among affiliated enterprises, both incorporated and unincorporated.
The concept of direct investment presented in this Manual is the basis for that adopted in the second edition of the OECD Detailed Benchmark Definition of Foreign Direct Investment. The concept described in this Manual is broader than the SNA concept of foreign-controlled, as distinguished from domestically controlled, resident enterprises. In the SNA, that istinction
(as well as the one between public and private
enterprises) is made in the compilation of arious
accounts because of the distinction’s potential analytic usefulness in the examination of differences (characteristics such as value added, investment,employment, etc.) between enterprise subsectors. Thus,linkage of the direct investment component of the financial account with the foreign-controlled sector is
by no means a complete one, primarily because the
two serve different purposes. As presented in this Manual, the primary distinguishing feature of direct investment is the significant influence that gives the investor an effective voice in management. For the foreign-controlled sector, the primary distinguishing feature is control.
