Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,7, Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh, course: Corporate Governance and Sustainability, language: English, abstract: Globalisation is benefiting shareholders as it is becoming increasingly easy to invest their money in companies all over the world. For instance, at the end of 2020, 56.3% of shares in British companies were held by foreign investors - a new record. At the same time, the Chinese government is nationalising its e-learning sector, drying up a market into which $10.5 billion was poured in 2020. The combination of these events leads to the question of how far investors are protected when investing their money. Therefore, this research paper aims to answer the research question: With global investors searching for higher returns in international markets, what is the role of investor protection in developing international financial markets and real economies?
