Abstract

Foreign direct investments are considered a long-term and stable form of capital. Market liberalization has made countries more open to this type of investment, and over the years competition for attracting foreign investors became fiercer. Economically stable countries with policies that facilitate and encourage foreign investments are generally considered to be more likely to attract foreign investors. The aim of this paper is to identify and compare the advantages and disadvantages of countries in attracting foreign investments on the example of Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. Although there are some similarities between the analyzed countries, they are nonetheless heterogeneous in terms of business climate, perceived corruption, and generally, in terms of attractiveness for foreign investments
