**Responsibilities**:
Within the scope of the OECD, the topic of investments is subdivided into several topics, many of which consist of connections with other areas of interest to the Organization, such as trade and investment, as well as green or sustainable investment. Key investment-related topics are: barriers to foreign investment; tariff barriers; differential treatment for foreign supplies; barriers to trade facilitation, in addition to issues such as transparency in investment regimes; non-discrimination; statistics on international investments; liberalization of capital movements and the operation of invisibles; trade credit and other international trade-related capital operations that must also be liberalized; restrictions on payments or transfers in relation to the current account in international transactions, and socially responsible investments, based on the ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) perspective.
The consultancy will consist in the elaboration of a study to understand, discriminate, and critically analyze the methodology applied by the OECD in the elaboration of investment indicators that can be used in the technical review of Brazil within the scope of the accession process, focusing on the Regulatory Restriction Indicator for FDI (FDI Regulatory Restrictiveness Index or just FDI Index).
Based on the context, problematization and general objective proposed, the study will focus on three specific objectives:
a) understanding of the methodology of indicators applicable in the technical review of the investment area;
b) critical analysis of the indicators, in order to identify the extent to which these indicators are applicable to the Brazilian reality;
It is proposed that, after a general mapping of investment indicators, the analysis will focus on the FDI Regulatory Restrictiveness Index (FDI Regulatory Restrictiveness Index).
