India Maintains Investment Restrictions on Neighbors Despite China Border Agreement

Despite a recent border patrol deal with China, India will keep limiting investment in its neighbours. The countrys delicate geopolitical position is highlighted by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharamans statement that India must take foreign direct investment FDI mindlessly, taking into account its source. Her comments, which she delivered before a BRICS summit between President Xi Jinping and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, suggest that lifting trade restrictions would only happen for a while. India has been scrutinising investments from its neighbours more since 2020, mainly from Chinese companies, which has discouraged large inflows. This strategy seeks to protect national interests in light of Indias growing trade imbalance with China, which has increased to $85 billion since the 2020 border dispute. Read More..
