The Impact of Open Market Variables on FDI. Case of Romania

This scientific approach intends to make an impact analysis which, using the quantitative methods, quantifies the effects generated by the elements that constitute open markets (trade freedom, investment freedom and financial freedom) on FDI. Knowing these effects allows to subsequently adopt the specific strategies and to develop multiple scenarios that can make the Romanian economy more attractive for foreign direct investment in terms of sustainability. To highlight the impact of the analyzed elements of FDI we have used specific quantitative analysis and statistical techniques that lead to the quantitative quantification as well as a number of causal explanations designed to better describe the phenomenon.
