Repatriation of Capital and Profits: Foreign investors must be guaranteed the unhindered ability to transfer their profits and capital out of the country. No investor will invest if profits and capital are impossible to repatriate. If repatriation is difficult, foreign investors may devise a variety of nontransparent means to withdraw their investment. These means are often in the form of transfer pricing, loans to the investing company, sale of raw materials at above market price or exorbitant technical and management fees.
