The modern tendencies of foreign direct investment flows in conditions of global instability

Abstract

Investments are one of the main factors that stimulate the growth of production volumes, the development of innovative technologies, that improve the quality and competitiveness of manufactured products, create new jobs and reducing unemployment. FDI are the driving force behind the modernization of the economy of the home country, and the international movement of capital is one of the main driving forces of economic globalization. The study of the current state and prospects in the field of FDI indicates multidirectional aspects of international investment processes. FDI overall stocks are huge, and the growth of their volumes outstrips the growth rates of world GDP and international trade, which is a prerequisite for an in-depth study of FDI and is a particularly urgent task in conditions of global instability.
