Banguat classifies the 2025 FDI inflow (preliminary) by economic activity under ISIC Rev. 4 (CIIU 4). Financial and insurance activities received US$855.2 million (45.4%), trade and vehicle repair US$358.6 million (19.1%), manufacturing US$203.5 million (10.8%), information and communications US$187.0 million (9.9%) and electricity, water and sanitation supply US$138.4 million (7.4%). Further down come transport and storage (US$53.5 M, 2.8%), other activities (US$43.5 M, 2.3%), construction (US$31.4 M, 1.7%), mining and quarrying (US$7.3 M, 0.4%), agriculture, livestock, forestry and fishing (US$1.9 M, 0.1%) and accommodation and food service (US$1.5 M, 0.1%). This breakdown by activity is not among the items cross-checked in the audit of 19 August 2026, which verified the total and the breakdown by country.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
