The slump was driven mostly by \u201clarge repatriations by United States parent companies of accumulated foreign earnings from their affiliates abroad following tax reforms.\u201d Developed countries such as the US, Switzerland, and Ireland also saw the sharpest decline in FDI, while developing regions, including Africa and Latin America saw their FDI inflows dip only slightly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt remained the most attractive destination for FDI in Africa in the first half of this <\/strong><strong>calendar year<\/strong>, with the total inflow up 24% compared to 1H2017, according to UNCTAD. Egypt\u2019s net FDI inflows <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/10\/02\/egypt-current-account-deficit-narrows-by-58-6-bop-nets-usd-12-8-bn\/\">had dipped in the state\u2019s 1 July-30 June 2017-18 fiscal year<\/a> to USD 7.7 bn, down from USD 7.9 bn the previous year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FDI into Africa as a whole was down slightly <\/strong>at 3% as inflows to Egypt and South Africa were offset in large part by a 17% slump in allocations to \u201cresource-dominant Western Africa.\u201d \u201cThe volatile global economic environment and mixed commodity price trends are important factors behind weakened FDI in Africa. Also, the expected growth in FDI inflows to Africa due to advances in regional integration has yet to materialize; the African Continental Freetrade Agreement, once in operation, may trigger new investor interest in the continent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Developing economies accounted for two-thirds of global FDI inflows<\/strong>, with emerging markets accounting for five of the world\u2019s top 10 \u201chost economies\u201d for FDI in the first half of this year. Among top FDI earners at all stages of development, China was the world\u2019s largest recipient of FDI, followed by the UK, the US, and the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content

This is why you should <\/strong><strong>care. <\/strong>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/report\/sr15\/\">UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report<\/a> warned last week that we only have 12 years to avoid climate change disasters by keeping global warming to a maximum rise of 1.5 \u00b0C. The report has been rattling cages since its release as scientists had previously thought a temperature increase of 2 degrees was enough for all hell to break loose. Boiled down to its essence: we have a lot more to do in a shorter period of time before disaster strikes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/climate-consensus-97-per-cent\/2018\/oct\/15\/theres-one-key-takeaway-from-last-weeks-ipcc-report\">For many pessimists<\/a>, the scale of the change needed for the global economy are simply too large to be met, and official inaction (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/video\/2018\/oct\/15\/show-me-the-scientists-trump-reiterates-his-climate-change-doubts-video\">including by the sitting president of the United States<\/a>) is just making it worse. In short, we\u2019ve probably already failed as a species and geoengineering may our only (<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2018\/10\/14\/at-what-point-do-we-admit-that-geoengineering-is-an-option\/\">very bad<\/a>) option.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The UN report holds special significance for Egypt:<\/strong> It claims we\u2019re among the countries most at risk from rising sea levels. Some 50 mn people in Egypt, the US, Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam face the prospect of being displaced by 2040 if global warming hits 2.7\u00b0C. It argues that transforming the world economy, including imposing hefty taxes on carbon dioxide emissions, at an estimated cost of USD 54 tn (and fast) is one key way to meet the 1.5\u00b0C limit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Africa is already feeling the heat:<\/strong> \u201cToday at only 1.1 degrees of warming globally, crops and livestock across the region are being hit and hunger is rising, with poor small-scale women farmers, living in rural areas suffering the most. It only gets worse from here,\u201d Pan Africa Director of Oxfam International Appolos Nwafor said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfam.org.uk\/media-centre\/press-releases\/2018\/10\/reaction-ipcc-special-report-keeping-global-warming-to-15-degrees-celsius\">on the IPCC report<\/a>. He urged governments to take action to rely on clean energy to protect vulnerable communities. Oxfam notes that If global temperature rises by more than 2 degrees by the end of the century, by 2050 daytime temperatures in North Africa (and the Middle East) could rise to 46 degrees on the hottest days, \u201cwhich can be deadly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nobel Prize in Economics highlights the scale of the dangers: <\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/old.nobelprize.org\/eco-press.pdf?_ga=2.127897349.922006908.1538993428-1053346388.1537097837\">2018 Nobel Prize in economics<\/a> was awarded jointly to Yale\u2019s William Nordhaus and NYU\u2019s Paul Romer. The Royal Swedish Academy awarded Nordhaus the prize for \u201cintegrating climate change into long-run macroeconomic analysis\u201d and Romer for \u201cintegrating technological innovations into long-run macroeconomic analysis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>This year\u2019s prize carries a particular significance as it is a testament to the <\/strong><strong>ever-expanding domain of economics as it overlaps with other social sciences.<\/strong> \u201cRomer saw the frontiers of knowledge as also having central economic determinants. Similarly, Nordhaus recognized that the global climate \u2013 broadly speaking, nature \u2013 is not just an important determinant of human activity, but is simultaneously affecting society and affected by its economic activity. Thus, the two laureates have brought knowledge and nature into the realm of economic analysis and made them an integral part of the endeavour.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Politically, the award could be seen as one that takes a swipe at free-market purists<\/strong> by picking winners who show that market economy can generate inefficient future outcomes at the global level. The award also recognizes the real threat of climate change and nudges observers towards seeing how technological improvements could help combat it.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/worth-reading\/\">worth reading<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"622970\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"622970\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Worth watching<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2018\/10\/17\/could-we-have-been-born-with-memories-in-our-dna\/\">\r\n                            Could we have been born with memories in our DNA?
