Abstract: The purpose of the article is determination of influence of FDI on Ukrainian regional development. On the basis of theoretical grounds there will be presented question of heterogeneity in the sphere of regional distribution of FDI and also the influence of this phenomenon on development of host country. Methods of statistic data analysis and source materials will be used for this purpose. Induction will allow todraw the conclusions. In turn, the concentration index of Herfindahl-Hirschman indicates the situation in the distribution of foreign capital in Ukrainian regions. Test results indicate a substantial level of concentration of foreign capital invested in the Ukrainian economy. This has negative effects manifested in the stratification of society and creating gaps in economic development.
