Abstract: The transition to democracy has made the economic policy of the Romanian state change from centrist to regional, based on four criteria: population, surface, cultural identity and functional relations. In 1998, Romania was divided into eight regions: North-West, Center, North-East, South-East, South-Muntenia, Bucharest-Ilfov, South-West Oltenia and the West region. In the current economic climate, foreign direct investment is needed to reduce regional economic disparities. Studies related to the location of an investment in a particular region began in 1826, with the modeling of concentric circles.
