Abstract

The aim of this paper is to scrutinise the impact of financial crises on foreign direct investments (FDIs) of the EU-15 by using dynamic panel data analysis. The empirical analysis depicts that financial crisis is one of the most important determinants of FDI inflows in the EU-15. Our main finding is that contrary to global financial crisis, Euro-zone crisis has increased FDI inflows to Greece, Italy, Ireland, Portugal and Spain (GIIPS). Yet, FDI inflows in crisis time do not always indicate successful FDI policy.
