Iran fetched over $8b of foreign investment since August: Report

Iran’s incumbent administration said that the amount of foreign investment attracted into the country since it came to office in August has exceeded $8.2 billion.
A report by Tasnim News Agency said that projects in Iran’s petroleum and energy sector were responsible for some $5.5 billion worth of foreign investment between August and January.
It added that foreign investment in Iran’s manufacturing sector had exceeded $2 billion over the same period, adding that investors from other countries had also committed to some $128 million worth of projects in Iran’s agriculture and mining sectors, Press TV wrote.
Foreign investment contracts approved for other sectors of the Iranian economy reached $459 million over the six months to late January, the report said.
Investors from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were responsible for 64.9% of the foreign investment contracts signed and finalized in the past six months, said the report, adding that UAE investors would provide $5.4 billion worth of funding to 35 projects in Iran based on the contracts.
The report said that Chinese investors had been approved for $805 million worth of funding in 30 projects in Iran based on decisions adopted in the six months to late January, adding that investors from the Iranian diaspora would provide $763 million worth of investment to 97 projects.
