Direct investment is an international ownership relationship in which an investor participates sufficiently in a foreign business to help shape its decisions or operations. In balance-of-payments statistics, it is distinguished from portfolio investment because the defining feature is a lasting managerial or strategic relationship, not merely the purchase of financial assets across national borders.
