The word 'investment' also means:
"a siege or blockade; the surrounding of a place with military forces or works, as in besieging"
Also, 'siege' often describes a city in troubled times, eg
"Rangoon is a city under siege."
Hope this helps, on behalf of Kettledrum. ja

Thanks Johnalex for answering on my behalf ... you've explained it much better than I could have done, but I blame myself for not having given some sort of explanation when giving my answer.
