In 2013 global FDI fell by 6% to $1.3 trillion, the second consecutive annual decline, following the 2010-2011 rebound, according to OECD estimates.

"Six years after the start of the global economic and financial crisis, global FDI flows remain roughly 30% below the peak reached in 2007 and with prospects for an FDI recovery in 2014 uncertain at best."
