Abstract

The paper analyses the situation of flows and stocks of the foreign direct investment received by Romania in the period 2003-2012 with an emphasis on the crisis and post-crisis periods, investments that are characterized by different trends in different time periods in terms of directing capitals to the economic sectors. There are also considered the fields of economic interest of the foreign investors in our country. The analysis performed in this respect reveals changes from one year to another, in terms of the foreign investors’ interest for certain economic activities, especially after the outbreak of the financial crisis in 2008, which resulted in their reorientation within the economic sectors.
