Solution

The term you're referring to is "foreign direct investment". This is when private multinational corporations invest in businesses in other countries. The investment is direct because the corporation is buying equipment, buildings, or whole companies, rather than buying stocks or bonds from a company. This is different from portfolio investments, where an investor buys stocks or bonds from a company but doesn't directly control the company's operations.
