From 2007 to 2010, Singapore was the high ground receiving more investment from the Great Peninsula Maurice. However, the trend was reversed for the period from April 2010 to February 2012. In fact, over this period, some Rs 220 billion have passed through Mauritius from India while Singapore received Rs 175 billion. For the month of September 2012 still Indian investments abroad were higher in Port Louis to Singapore or Rs 7.45 billion against Rs 6.8 billion.
