The forecast for Canada's mining and quarrying outward FDI flows from 2024 to 2028 reveals a concerning downward trend. Beginning with a positive value in 2024, the subsequent years indicate a significant decline into negative figures, suggesting disinvestment or remittance of capital. By 2028, the figures demonstrate a marked downturn compared to 2023, when outward flows were positive. The average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period underscores an unsustainable trajectory with substantial annual declines.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential regulatory changes or policies affecting foreign investments.
- Global demand shifts in mining and quarrying products.
- Technological advancements fostering efficiency or influencing profitability in the sector.
- Geopolitical influences that may affect Canada's investment climate or opportunities abroad.
