الاستثمارات الاجنبية المباشرة و دورها في تنمية الاقتصاديات النامية (FDI)

This paper focuses on an important topic today, which is the Direct Foreign Investments and their role in improving developing economies. The DFI has occupied a prominent position within the priorities of the decision makers of the economic policies in developing countries when formulating the long-term development plans. So we have tried to present the most important direct foreign investments, and the role each of which plays in improving host economies. This paper studies the concept of the suitable conditions that must be provided by developing countries to attract DFI. We have also considered the dynamic approach which changes with the change of the external conditions. Then we have shown the competition between countries for DFI, and the ranking of these countries on the ladder of investment attraction, highlighting the Syrian case with DFI.
