A. Competitive and open markets.

C. A dependable legal system.

D. Political stability.

Explanation:

A Competitive and open Market ensures that people have enough incentives to invest in the development of factors of production because it rewards that investment with a healthy return. In a Competitive market, unfair competition will not be present therefore people will get equal opportunities to make returns.

A dependable Legal System and Political Stability go hand in hand to ensure that investors will have enough faith in the system to want to invest in Factors of Production. If a country is stable politically and abides by the rule of law, an investor will be assured that when they invest, these investments will be protected by the powers that be and their returns will not be impacted by political upheavals and breaches of contract that cannot be rectified.
