The paper reflects topical issues related to the attraction of foreign direct investment. The various dynamics of direct foreign investments into and from the economy of Ukraine are investigated. Tendencies of changing indicators are established. The emphasis is placed on the fact that the volume of direct foreign investments per person remains low. Foreign direct investment is mostly from the EU. It is concluded that in recent years a lot of foreign investors have lost interest in the Ukrainian economy. The main reasons for this comprise the risks that we associate with economic and political instability; the corruption of power structures, the influence of negative factors, both social and geopolitical. Problems in the field of attraction of foreign investments, which require urgent solution, are revealed. Modeling of foreign direct investments into the Ukrainian economy has been conducted by the method of trend extrapolation and predicted values of the indicator. The directions, aimed at strengthening of investment attractiveness of Ukraine, are grounded.
