Why the UK is attractive for foreign direct investment

In this webcast, our speakers provide a comprehensive overview of the latest EY UK Attractiveness Survey and share valuable insights into the UK's attractiveness as an investment destination.

Europe faced significant inward investment challenges in 2022, with overall projects remaining flat. However, the data reveals that the UK has a compelling investment narrative to share.

Whilst the total number of projects positions the UK slightly behind France, it takes the lead in Europe in terms of strategically significant foreign direct investment (FDI).

Overall, the UK stands out as a prime investment destination, boasting record-high investment intentions, a focus on valuable projects and a leadership position in strategically significant FDI.

Register for our latest webcast when our speakers will provide a comprehensive overview of the 2023 EY UK Attractiveness Survey (with a Scotland spotlight), including regional FDI data and evaluating key leading sectors and investment origins.

Topics discussed include:

  • The results of the EY annual investor sentiment survey.
  • An exploration of questions around performance and perceptions of the UK as a destination for FDI.
  • The risks due to broader challenges faced by Europe in 2022 and insights into UK's attractiveness as an investment destination.
