The Council reports to the Secretary 

of Commerce on its activities and 

recommendations regarding FDI and 

business investment. In creating its 

reports, the Council is to survey and 

evaluate the investment and investmentfacilitating activities of stakeholders, 

identify and examine specific problems 

facing potential business investors, and 

examine the needs of stakeholders to 

inform the Council’s efforts. The 

Council is to recommend specific 

solutions to the problems and needs that 

it identifies. 

Each member is to be appointed for a 

term of two years and serves at the 

pleasure of the Secretary. The Secretary 

may at his/her discretion reappoint any 

member to an additional term or terms, 

provided that the member proves to 

work effectively on the Council and his/ 

her knowledge and advice is still 

needed. 

The Council consists of no more than 

forty (40) members appointed by the 

Secretary. Members are to represent 

companies and organizations investing, 

seeking to invest, seeking foreign 

investors, or facilitating investment 

across many sectors, including but not 

limited to: 

• U.S.-incorporated companies that 

are majority-owned by foreign 

companies or by a foreign individual or 

individuals, or that generate significant 

foreign direct investment (e.g., through 

their supply chains); 

• Companies or entities whose 

business includes FDI-related activities 

or the facilitation of FDI; and 

• U.S. incorporated companies, 

regardless of ownership, that are 

considering expanding their operations 

in the United States or transferring to 

the United States operations that are 

currently being conducted overseas; 

• Economic development 

organizations and other U.S. 

governmental and non-governmental 

organizations and associations whose 

missions or activities include the 

promotion or facilitation of business 

investment and/or FDI. 

All members must be a U.S. citizen or 

permanent resident. Members shall be 

selected based on their ability to carry 

out the objectives of the Council, in 

accordance with applicable Department 

of Commerce guidelines, in a manner 

that ensures that the Council is balanced 

in terms of points of view, industry 

sector or subsector, and organizational 

type. Members shall also represent a 

broad range of products and services 

and shall be drawn from large, medium, 

and small enterprises, private-sector 

organizations that have invested or are 

considering investing in the United 

States, and other investment-related 

entities, including non-governmental 

organizations, associations, and 

economic development organizations. 

For members selected on the basis of 

their involvement in FDI and FDIrelated activities, the Council should 

also be balanced in terms of the 

geographic sources and destinations of 

the FDI and the volume and nature of 

FDI involved. For members selected on 

the basis of their interest in expanding 

their operations in, or transferring 

operations to the United States, the 

Council should also be balanced in 

terms of the size and nature of the 

operations under consideration for 

expansion or transfer. 

In selecting members, priority may be 

given to the selection of executives, i.e., 

Chief Executive Officer, Executive 

Chairperson, President, or an officer 

with a comparable level of 

responsibility. 

Members serve in a representative 

capacity, representing the views and 

interests of their sponsoring entity and 

those of their particular sector (if 

applicable), and they are, therefore, not 

Special Government Employees. 

Members will receive no compensation 

for their participation and will not be 

reimbursed for travel expenses related 

to Council activities. Appointments to 

the Council shall be made without 

regard to political affiliation. All 

members must be a U.S. national. 

The Secretary designates a Chair and 

Vice Chair from among the members. 

The Council will meet a minimum of 

two times a year, to the extent practical, 

with additional meetings called at the 

discretion of the Secretary or his/her 

designee. Meetings will be held in 

Washington, DC or elsewhere in the 

United States, or by teleconference, as 

feasible. Members are expected to attend 

a majority of Council meetings.
