Abstract
Background. Over the past quarter century, there has been a noticeable increase in foreign direct investment (FDI), especially in developing countries. The relevance of this research stems from geopolitical changes, technological progress, and the crucial role of FDI in financing economic and social development. This article is dedicated to examining (FDI) in the context of determining factors that make a recipient country attractive. Methods. The selected key influencing factors include political and technological aspects across seven different countries worldwide, including Ukraine. Using regression modeling methods for seven countries (Ukraine, Germany, the United Kingdom, Lithuania, Romania, the United States, and Japan), we have identified the key factors that have the greatest impact on FDI in each of these countries. Results. The analysis highlights the importance of factors such as political stability and the import of ICT goods for attracting FDI to Ukraine. However, the study emphasizes that such involvement necessitates the establishment of political stability within the country and the development of an export-oriented economy. It underscores the crucial importance of opening international markets for Ukrainian products to facilitate economic growth and attract foreign investment. Conclusions. The article concludes by emphasizing the significance of attracting FDI for the reconstruction of infrastructure, businesses, and the IT market, particularly with regard to funding from international organizations and investment by international corporations in Ukraine and other post-war partner countries. However, this involvement requires the achievement of political stability in the country, as well as the formation of an economy focused on the export of goods. For this reason the opening of international markets for Ukrainian products is crucial.
