17. Divestment

Divestment refers to the partial or full dismantling of a company’s ownership stake in a unit. When a unit is domiciled in a foreign location, what is typically referred to as a foreign subsidiary, the phenomenon is known as foreign divestment. Foreign divestment is hence closely associated with foreign direct investment. Substitute terms for divestment include disinvestment, divestiture, and exit.
