Foreign Direct Investments in European Union Economy

Georgeta Ilie

Knowledge Horizons - Economics, 2015, vol. 7, issue 2, 154-159

Abstract: The European Union continues to be an important source and destination of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the world measured by flows and stocks. Investment is part of the EU’s common commercial policy, because FDI is one of the vehicles through which each country can develop its industries. The EU's investment policy is focused on providing EU investors and investments with market access and with legal certainty and a stable, predictable, fair and properly regulated environment in which to conduct their business. The paper also provides a synthetic approach to investor-state arbitration in the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA).
