Foreign direct investment (FDI) adds value to London's economy, both in terms of capital expenditure and new jobs created. In 2014, 22,000 new jobs were created in London, as a direct result of foreign-owned companies expanding, or relocating to London. Understandably, targeting and securing this investment is an increasingly competitive business. What impact does LEAP consider the prime minister's current roadmap out of the EU will have on London's FDI.
