Canadian Investment Abroad Foreign Investment in Canada
As countries become more economically integrated, global economies are looking beyond their borders for opportunities
Global Investing – The Realities
It’s not only Canadians who are investing more globally. Foreign investors are investing more here too.
CIFP June 2007 11
Global Investing – The RealitiesDanger of not going global
Canadian companies represent only a very small portion of the world’s stock market value. As a result, investors without exposure to other countries limit their range of available investment opportunities.
CIFP June 2007 12
Global Investing – The RealitiesCanada only offers exposure to a couple of sectors
Compared to the global economy, Canada’s economy is dominated by Financials and Resources companies.

Global investing challenges - Behavioural
People see what they want to see.
It’s just the way we’re built…and conditioned.
The size of the bowl or plate biases how much a person eats by an average of 20-30%.
You'll eat 35% more dining with a friend than when eating alone and double the amount of food ingested when dining with 7 or more people.
About 1 in 5 employees have more than 50% of their work-related investment plans in company stock
One third of Canadians have no foreign content in their RRSPs
