Question 7

Study the figure below, which shows the global distribution of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) net inflows as a percentage of GDP in 2022.

A choropleth world map showing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) net inflows as a percentage of GDP in 2022. High FDI net inflows (over 5% of GDP) are concentrated in emerging economies in Southeast Asia (e.g., Vietnam) and parts of Latin America (e.g., Brazil). Moderate FDI (2% to 5%) is observed in North America and Western Europe. Low FDI (under 1% or negative) is widespread across landlocked countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (such as Chad and the Central African Republic) and parts of Central Asia.

Suggest one possible reason for the pattern shown.
