The Afghanistan Investment Support Agency (AISA) reported on Sunday that investment in the country during the first two quarters of 2015 stands at USD 270mn, marking a decline of USD 120mn from last year’s corresponding period.
AISA Chief Mohammad Qurban Haqjo warned of a potential economic crisis if this trend continues.
