Abstract

FDI had a positive development before the global crisis, on the background of global economic growth, foreign investment regime, liberalization and internationalization strategies by increasing the number of transnational corporations. The crisis has adversely affected access to financing, corporate profits fell over, limiting their ability to invest in production capacity expansion as a result of markets deterioration and unfavorable economic outlook . If in 2008 the worst affected were developed countries, the decline in FDI flows in 2009 included all world economies at global level reporting a perceived decrease in FDI inflows of 16% in 2008, 37% in 2009 and in 2010 the volume of global FDI flows received only a marginal increase by 1% respectively from 1144 billion USD in 2009 to 1122 billion USD in 2010.
