The Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services of Brazil has launched the InvestVis platform, which allows the general public to learn about investments made in Brazil and around the world.
The tool enables users to see which countries invest the most in Brazil, which economic sectors receive the most international investments, where Brazilian investments are going, and global investment trends.
As the first of its kind, the platform facilitates the monitoring of investment dynamics and can help inform government decisions and private sector strategies.
