Prime Minister David Cameron said the ability to continue to attract and retain inward investment from Japan, the US and other countries is at the heart of the government’s economic recovery plans, according to a London Press Service report on 16 July.
The US remains the top source of investment, while Japan regained its position as the top Asian investor, up 27% year on year.
Cameron was speaking at the UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) Business Summit in London that was attended by more than 100 of the UK’s leading investors, including Toyota Motor Corporation and Fujitsu.
