Foreword Bangladesh is a land of opportunity. We have every potential to grow further. Entrepreneurship development and investment promotion is the most effective tool to make these potentials in reality. New investment brings employment, technology, managerial knowledge to alleviate poverty. Building a supportive institutional arrangement will be key to the establishment of a dynamic and private sector oriented policy ecosystem in Bangladesh. Bangladesh has the potential to mobilize huge amounts of resources from private and domestic and foreign official sources in carrying out massive infrastructural investment plan. Increasing institutional capacities for investment promotion and FDI attraction into Bangladesh could lead up toward this dream in near future. We all have a stake to perform for building a prosperous Bangladesh in near future. Bangladesh is a developing country. It is being developed gradually. For its gradual development, the government has fixed some visions. Vision 2041 is one of them. The Prime Minister of the present government, Sheikh Hasina told the parliament that her government will soon turn the Vision 2021 into Vision 2041 as a long-term perspective plan in the context of her party’s election manifesto titled: ‘Bangladesh marching ahead’. She also said that after implementing the Vision-2041, Bangladesh will be a peaceful, prosperous, happy and developed nation comparable with the developed world. If the Vision-2041 is materialized, Bangladesh will become a developed country like all other developed countries of the world. So, in order to make the “Vision-2041” successful, we, all should come forward to help the government. At the end, I sincerely pay my special thanks to all contributors and do humbly acknowledge the persistent efforts of the editorial board for making the paper a success. Lt Gen Chowdhury Hasan Sarwardy, BB, SBP, BSP, ndc, psc, PhD Commandant National Defence College Editorial Investment is a potent weapon of development of economy that can play an important role in achieving the country’s socio-economic objectives including poverty reduction goals. Investment is of crucial importance for the development of productive capacity of an economy by building up physical capital which in turn, creates employment opportunities. By increasing the existence of capital in the economy, investment allows the companies to buy new tools, buildings, computers, machines etc, to support enhanced production. The term FDI refers to investment that is made to acquire a lasting interest in an enterprise operating abroad, the investor’s purpose being to have an effective voice in the management of the enterprise. In other words, FDI is an international financial flow with the intention of controlling or participating in the management of an enterprise in a foreign country. The government of Bangladesh has adopted a long-term perspective plan to transform Bangladesh into a knowledge based middle-income economy by 2021 and a peaceful, prosperous, happy and developed country by 2041. (Star Online Report, 2016). Bangladesh, a densely populated, agro-based, developing South Asian country wants to boost its economic performance for a better future. Bangladesh is distinguished among the LDCs because of its relative success in economic and rural development. We benignly acknowledge the extraneous endeavour of all members of the editorial board for extending their selfless support behind this publication.
