investments in fixed asset improvement


Explanation:
I do not think one needs to translate "poniesione." What else does one do with investment?

Definition of fixed asset investment
Fixed asset investment, or FAI, is a measure of capital spending. It refers to any investment within the measurement period in physical assets, such as real estate infrastructure, machinery, etc. that are held for more than one year. FAI can be a good indicator for how much investment is occurring in a country or region, but it is not a direct contributor to GDP.
