Abstract: This study is a synthesis of the authors' research on the application of the Investment Development Path (IDP) concept to Poland. The IDP is investigated from the point of view of its general trajectory as well as its geographic and industry/sector idiosyncrasies. Collected data cover a time span ranging from the beginning of the country's transition to a market-led system until 2006. The general IDP analysis approach followed by geographic and industry/sector patterns provide grounds for specific economic policy recommendations. The major challenge for the economic policy is to sustain substantial Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows while, at the same time, spurring faster growth of FDI outflows.

Keywords: FDI; foreign direct investment; IDP; investment development path; geographic patterns; sector patterns; industry patterns; Poland; economic policy; emerging economies. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
