Resumen ejecutivo : periodo 2001 - tercer trimestre 2004

Abstract

This report presents statistics on the flows and stocks (stock) of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) from 2001 to the third quarter of 2004. It should be noted that the figures for 2003 published in the previous report differ. This is due to the increase in positive responses to the survey, which reached 96.6% at the time of writing this report. The response rate through the third quarter of 2004 reached 82%. The analysis of FDI established in Paraguay during the reference period is based on reports from non-financial and financial companies between 2001 and the third quarter of 2004. In 2003, the number of respondents was 142; of this total, 124 were non-financial companies and the remaining 18 were financial entities (banks, mutual funds, and insurance companies). In 2004, the number of informants was 134; of this total, 120 were non-financial companies and 14 were financial entities.
