Abstract
The importance of foreign direct investment (FDI) for the economy of the host country is demonstrated, and the advantages and risks of attracting foreign capital for the economy of Ukraine are emphasized. An analysis of the dynamics of foreign direct investment in Ukraine is carried out, with a focus on sectoral and geographical structure. Differences between the productivity of enterprises with foreign investment and that of domestic enterprises are noted. The assessment of investment potential was carried out using a multifactor comparative analysis, and a calculation of investment attractiveness is made on the basis of the standardization of indicators for the regions of Ukraine. The correspondence between the investment potential and investment attractiveness of the regions is indicated, as well as the low level of investment attractiveness of certain regions in Ukraine. Priority measures for the intensification of foreign investment activity in Ukraine in the conditions of globalization are discussed.

Summary
Global economic changes and emerging geopolitical and trade risks affect foreign direct investment (FDI) processes. Intensified globalization influences the dynamics of foreign investment and stimulates the development of new approaches to how to attract FDI and use it effectively. Stimulating foreign investment has been a priority of Ukraine’s economic policy for many years, as evidenced by the adoption of a number of national legislative and program documents, but neither the volume nor socio-economic consequences of foreign investment show stable indicators, while powerful investors assess investment risk in Ukraine as quite high, which does not contribute to the use of available investment potential. The need to develop export activities and reduce the technological gap between Ukraine and other countries entails that the issues related to the processes of foreign investment in the domestic economy require urgent examination. The purpose of the article is to assess the investment potential and investment attractiveness of the regions of Ukraine in the global economy
