FIGURE 1.2 Global foreign direct investment stock network, 2017

Source: World Bank calculations based on International Monetary Fund bilateral foreign direct investment database, 2019. Note: These two panels are undirected networks. The size of each node represents the weighted degree of its corresponding economy (the total inward and outward foreign direct investment [FDI] stock into and from all other economies in the network). The thickness of the linkages represents the sum of the inward and outward FDI stocks between the two linked economies. Only bilateral linkages worth at least US$5 billion are included in the network analysis. Nodes are colored by World Bank region.
