📊 ALAM MO BA? | PAGKAKAIBA NG APPROVED FOREIGN INVESTMENT (AFI) AT FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT (FDI)

Alam mo ba na magkaiba ang Approved Foreign Investment (AFI) at Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)? Bagama't pareho silang may kaugnayan sa pamumuhunan ng mga dayuhan sa Pilipinas, magkaiba ang kanilang kahulugan.

📌 Approved Foreign Investment (AFI) – Tumutukoy sa kabuuang halaga ng mga planong pamumuhunan ng mga dayuhang indibidwal o kumpanya na inaprubahan ng mga ahensiya ng pamahalaan para sa mga negosyo o proyektong itatayo sa bansa.

📌 Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) – Tumutukoy sa aktuwal na pamumuhunan ng mga dayuhang indibidwal o kumpanya sa isang negosyo sa Pilipinas, kung saan nagmamay-ari sila ng hindi bababa sa 10% ng voting power.

💡 Tandaan: Ang AFI ay tumutukoy sa mga planong pamumuhunan na naaprubahan, samantalang ang FDI ay tumutukoy sa aktuwal na direktang pamumuhunan ng mga dayuhan sa bansa.

Sa madaling salita, ang pag-apruba ng isang investment project ay hindi nangangahulugang naipasok na agad ang buong halaga nito bilang aktuwal na pamumuhunan.
