Cambodia Government Eyes Stock Exchange as a Means to Boost Cambodia Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)

November 19th, 2007 · 1 Comment

The Cambodia Government continues to drive towards creating a Cambodia stock exchange that it believes will significantly help attract Cambodia Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) according to Business Week.

The UN World Investment Report 2007 indices that only $483 million was attributed to Cambodia foreign direct investment (FDI) and the Cambodia government sees is neighbors such as Vietnam and Thailand getting the lion share of FDI with help from the fact they have stock exchanges.

While the Cambodia government is on track with the development of a Cambodia stock exchange, they still have a long way to go considering that the government of Cambodia and the Cambodia economy, among other areas such as corruption, need significant stability and reform before foreign investors can be fully confident.

    If the corruption can be reduced and the tranparancies is increased, Cambodia would succeed in getting investors’ confidence. All the formalities should be disclosed to public. The progress of establishing the draft law should be published as there are a lot of people who are interested to know.
