Myanmar attracted nearly US$338 million in foreign investment during the first nine months of the 2025–2026 fiscal year, according to official data released by the Myanmar junta’s investment authorities.

The Directorate of Investment and Company Administration (DICA) said inflows totalled US$337.9 million between April and December. Manufacturing accounted for the largest share of investment at about US$190.5 million.

Other investment sectors saw investment including transport and communications at US$81.4 million, energy at US$35.3 million, oil and natural gas at US$25 million, livestock and fisheries at US$2.5 million and services with US$3.1 million, DICA said.

The figures were released as Myanmar’s junta seeks to revive foreign investment amid the ongoing political crisis, armed conflict, international sanctions and economic disruption following the military’s 2021 coup.

The Myanmar Investment Commission continues to review and approve proposals from domestic and foreign investors under the country’s investment law, the statement said.
