President Obama -- in State of the Union Speech -- References A.T. Kearney Research on Foreign Direct Investment into the U.S.

CHICAGO, Jan. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In Tuesday night's State of the Union speech, President Obama made a bold statement about foreign direct investment and the United States, "And for the first time in over a decade, business leaders around the world have declared that China is no longer the world's number one place to invest; America is."

President Obama was referencing A.T. Kearney's 2013 Foreign Direct Investment Confidence Index (FDICI), a measure of senior executive sentiment at the world's largest companies. The FDICI survey has been conducted regularly over the last 15 years. The Index provides a unique viewpoint on current and future prospects for international direct investment flows based on the perspectives of more than 300 senior executives in 28 countries.
