"Europe needs to respond adequately to the challenges of stabilising the international economy in order to exploit global opportunities to the maximum. We must address our weaknesses and strengthen the advantages of all countries and regions to attract local and international investment that will contribute to our balanced growth and our cohesion. The Union is the world’s largest trading power and remains the largest regional destination for foreign direct investment. Nevertheless, we must be capable of exploiting our competitive advantages, given the rising competition from developing countries. This goal must be at the heart of the EU’s investment reforms and strategy, at both European and national levels. At the global level, the EU must continue its efforts to conclude bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements as well as participate actively in global economic governance. Attracting investment in Europe needs measures and reforms, at both European and national levels. Ensuring that businesses can compete openly and fairly is crucial with respect to making Europe an attractive place in which to invest and work. The single market is one of the most significant priorities in developing a friendly and motivational environment for businesses and consumers."@en1
