GIPB – to start my presentation GIPB-global investment promotion

Resources based on IPI responses to two simulated inquires its Web site.

OSAKA vs. weak performers
To check more detail: http://www.ibpcosaka.or.jp/index_e.html
Compare to the top agency. We also have weak one. Here we can see the lesson from GIPB for
Papua New Guinea:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvMekCAR3K0
(not only for PNG, but also for other country like Indonesia)

Why should pay attention to foreign investment?
Most governments depend on investment promotion agencies, economic development boards, industrial development agencies and other investment promotion intermediaries(IPIs)
to compete globally for critical foreign investment and the development benefits it brings
![Page 6: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What sets the world’s best investment facilitators apart from the rest
“More than 70% of investment promotion intermediaries missing out on the foreign investment by failing to provide investors with accurate and timely information”
(Quote: the global investment promotion benchmarking 2009 report)----GIPB
Reason: “investment facilitation” ---one of the simplest and most cost effective functionAlways neglected at many agencies.

14 common practices
A new survey identified 14 common practices of top-performing agencies in the benchmarking study.
Benefit: Weaker performers can inexpensively
implement many of these practices to win a larger share of the trillion-dollar market for foreign investment.
![Page 8: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Top-performing vs. the rest
Differences: Foster a private sector-minded
culture Accumulate deep business
knowledge Implement internal systems
Ensure the agencies can provide foreign investors with necessary information to influence their investment decision.
14 practices
![Page 9: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Foster a private sector-minded culture
1. private sector experience:(build a staff with public and private sector experience) Great challenge of public sector IPIs is to
understand private sector service standard
Public agencies : task-orientedTop IPIs: hire staff with private sector experience
(74%)Weak IPIs: only have half (30%)
Private experience Key hiring criteria
![Page 10: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2. Salaries and bonuses(offer salaries and bonuses closer to private sector standards)
Based on the demand of private experience
Public IPIsPrivate sector firms
Talented staff
Salary compare: Top IPIs (83%) >= public sector level Weak IPIs(62%)=public sector level
![Page 11: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
3.Operational freedom(secure operational freedom and high-level reporting channels)
The most successful IPIs are given focused mandates and then allowed to pursue them through result-oriented strategies with minimal interference and the freedom to allocate resources accordingly.
Autonomy helps to preserve a private sector-
like clarity of mission and means.
![Page 12: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4.Strategic focus on a few priority sectors(establish and concentrate efforts in a few priority sectors)
Top IPIs: One of the most widely shared characteristics is they have identified a few priority sectors on which to focus the bulk of their promotion and facilitation efforts.
It is essential in permitting the development of the deep knowledge required to understand and speak to the needs of specific investors.
![Page 13: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
5.a. networks of subnational agencies(coordinate facilitation with networks and partners subnationally and overseas)---(cont’d)
At least 76% of the top IPIs fit into one of three categories:
Subnational agency National agency with subnational
offices National agency in a country with
separate province-level agencies, including special economic zones.
![Page 14: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
5.b.networks of overseas office
81% top IPIs have own office near potential investors
Dedicated staff in their countries’ embassies.
Advantages:1.deeping IPI knowledge of targeted
markets.2.developing many more face-to-face
relationships.3.Allowing more frequent visits to
investors.4.Improving responsiveness to inquires.
![Page 15: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
6.Compentency in English and other foreign languages “maintain English-speaking staff in
sufficient numbers and with the full range of facilitation skills.”
![Page 16: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
7.Continuous staff development(continually train and develop staff, especially in soft skills)
The “right people” have to be developed!
(People with internal potential)I have “ soft
skills”
Training & developing
I’m the“right
people”
![Page 17: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Accumulate deep business knowledge
8.research capacity(establish a minimum level of in-house research
capacity)
For each person employed: In top IPIs: have on average 1.05 computers
with high-speed internet access. In weak IPIs: have only 0.6 computers per
personConclusion: the weak IPIs staff members have limited
access to the primary tool for research.
![Page 18: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
9.Account managers(develop account managers into reservoirs of knowledge on particular sectors)
88% of top IPIs have inquiries handled by a single person throughout the entire life cycle of the inquiry.
Putting a single account manager’s advantages:
1.build familiarity with potential investors. 2.take advantage of and build on the knowledge
of the IPIs sectoral specialists. 3.establish relationships with investors. 4.smoothly advance investor interest.
![Page 19: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
10.Knowledge and relationship management system(ensure the accumulation of knowledge and its relevant) Five common tools used by top IPIs: (for
knowledge management)
1.investor information systems 2.regular staff meetings 3.database of available land 4.directories of business service
providers 5.customer relationship management
software

11.Making facilitation a priority(within the overall strategy) 70%of the IPIs did not respond in the time
requested to one or both of two investors’ inquiries.
When the investors knock your door! (there’s no potential sales)
If fails to provide the basic information
Damage the image and actual performance
![Page 21: Investment climate in cCEE](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030313/58cf31161a28ab00168b58cb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Summarize the last three points- (cont’d)
12.being accessible “maintain the equipment and practices to be
easily reached and to quickly return calls and emails”
13.a web site work plan “demonstrate professionalism and dynamism
through the web site with frequent news updates on the content, style, timeframe”
14.respones guidelines “follow detailed guidelines on the content, style,
timeframe and quality assurance of inquiry repones

An integrated system for inquiry handling
