Abstract

This paper tries to make an approach to the Foreign Direct Investments in South-Eastern Europe. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the variable impacts on the economies on businesses and employment relations in South-Eastern Europe. Evidence was reported from the national banks and it is referred to the last decade. Analysing the findings, it is more than certain to declare that FDIs have been and therefore will be a competitive option to investments in the domestic economy in the future. This is the key, each economy should present its own distinct opportunities and advantages and moreover large investors tend to seize the opportunities discerned in both.
