Abstract
ABSTRACT Foreign direct investment (FDI) has presented unprecedented growth in recent decades, reshaping the global landscape and revealing serious spatial imbalances. The scarcity of data on FDI activities at a subnational scale has made in-depth decomposition analysis of the spatial patterns of FDI difficult. This paper attempts to fill this void by utilising a novel regional dataset and exploring the spatial irregularities and determinants of FDI distribution in the regions of Europe during the period 2010–2018. The findings of the paper offer novel insights and valuable guidance for policy-making regarding the role of economic geography, agglomerations, market potential and spatial centrality, aspects that other analyses struggle to substantiate due to their broad spatial scope and the absence of localised information.
