Spanish term or phrase: una inversión conjunta global
"una inversión conjunta global de X millónes de euros"

I have translated "inversión global" in other parts of the same text as "aggregate investment" but am not sure what to do with this now.. could it be "combined/joint aggregate investment" or am I completely wrong?

Thanks for your help!
