It tackles all major issues brought forward by the latest statistics FDI inflows and outflows, inward and outward stocks, forms of FDI and trends in FDI related earnings, and changes in FDI by home country and by economic activity. The analysis is followed by two sets of tables Tables I contain total flow and stock data according to the respective countries¿ National Banks while Tables II provide more detailed FDI data by economic activities and by countries. The main source of data are the National Banks of the individual Central, East and Southeast European countries. FDI flows are taken from the balance of payments, stocks from the international investment position statistics. Austrian FDI is covered in the way the receiving countries report it.
