Abstract

Countries’ economic growth cannot be achieved without investment. A country can make investment in accordance with the level of public financial resources and also with the prioritization of social needs which means that, during certain periods of time, there are not enough funds, and other resources are resorted to. Thus, foreign direct investment is a way of generating development as it is an important feature of the world economy as a result of globalization. In the current pandemic context which has affected all sectors ranging from education to agriculture, from health to industry, from culture to services, it was certain that the level of foreign direct investment would also be affected. The current study, which is based on the critical analysis of specialist literature and reports of specialist institutions, aims at identifying the impact of the health crisis on foreign direct investment both worldwide and in Romania.
