Foreign investments are protected from political risks by law, like the risk of nationalization, said Abolfazl Kodehi, director of Iran Foreign Investment Services Center, in the Second International Catalyst Conference on Tuesday. “There is intense competition to attract foreign direct investment in the world. We have the needed incentives and the structures to attract FDI.” IFIS has allowed for various forms of foreign investment contracts and partnerships. “We are also giving three-year multiple-entry visas to investors and easing visa restrictions.” The center was established half a decade ago to facilitate investment in Iran.
