  • Direct Investments in the US by Indian Enterprises Setting the New Agenda
    Direct investments in the US by Indian enterprises Setting the new agenda October 2012 – December 2014 Rajiv Memani Chairman - India Region, EY Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi’s recent visit to the US in September 2014 added new dimensions to the dialogue between our two nations, and instilled renewed confidence in business leaders. The Fifth US-India Strategic Dialogue and the visit of the US dignitaries to India were amongst the other recent events that reinforced bilateral ties between the two countries. At the same time, the US President Barack Obama’s visit to India is expected to provide an additional push to Indo-US relations. From a business standpoint, the U.S has always held out significant appeal to businesses seeking to make a global impact. It is ranked as one of the world’s topmost investment destinations. Direct investments in the US by Indian enterprises, is a series launched by EY and FICCI in 2006 to unravel the lesser known story of Indian FDI into the US. Today, hundreds of Indian companies are operating in the US. They have invested millions of dollars, generated and supported thousands of jobs, and made a deep impact through their philanthropic initiatives and community engagements. These companies have shown the courage to successfully compete with their global peers on their home turf. This report is the fifth in a series, initiated in 2006, which has become a “ready reckoner” for anyone seeking to do business with and in the US. Indian investments in the US have remained strong during October 2012 to December 2014, despite global and domestic economic turbulence.
