| description | The propose of the paper is to analyze the relation between economic development and FDI flows. FDI should have a positive effect on economic growth as a result of positive externalities generated for host countries by multinational companies (MNCs).

However, it is generally accepted that there is a functional link between the degree of openness of trade and foreign direct investment, especially in developing countries. |
