Abstract

Although foreign investments are not the key to national economic growth but rather a catalyst for this process, their expansion can have a major positive impact on national economies, if these investments are coupled with the development of a stable, simple, transparent institutional environment. and functional. The performance achieved by different states in implementing reforms and advancing the systemic transformation seems to have had a particularly important impact on the flow of foreign direct investment. The article presents the content, the determining factors and the role of foreign direct investments on the host country, highlighting those essential aspects that influence the decision to implement FDI.
