Abstract: The arrangements of regional economic integration have substantially reconfigured the pattern of global economy after the Second World War, due to their structural effects, but especially to the new forms of interdependence which they have created between economies. Our study is based on the hypothesis that the economic integrated areas are more attractive to investors, especially to the large ones such as multinational corporations. Analyzing the flows, respectively the ratio of inward stock of foreign direct investment to GDP in EU, and Romania, as well as the main indicators assessing the presence of multinational corporations in the Common Market and in our country too, we have found that the creation of a larger market and deepening of economic integration has fuelled a stimulus for investments, although the preference of investors, especially of the nonEuropeans, have been quite highly concentrated on certain locations/countries.
