“…DeAngelo et al (2010) concluded the importance of the consumer market and strength of consumer sales as the most important factor in explaining capital movements into Brazil. Bergsman et al (1999) suggested that Russia should switch to a more modern policy approach to FDI by eliminating the relatively extensive non-tariff protection given to the domestic market, phasing out existing tax preferences for foreign investors, and reducing significantly restrictions on FDI to a limited number of activities. Priya Gupta and Archana Singh (2014) also concluded in a very recent study on BRIC Nations that the most important factors for attracting FDI inflows are inflation rate, international liquidity, debt service as a percentage of export of goods and services of the country, current account as percentage of GDP, current account as percentage of export of goods and services, budget balance as a percentage of GDP, and percentage unemployment in the country.…”

The aim of this study is to determine the most significant factors that lead to continuous rise in the foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in the five most emerging economies of the world, that is, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS). The present study employs panel data regression analysis to find out the most significant determinants affecting the FDI inflows in BRICS countries as a whole. Under this technique, all the three regression models, that is, common constant (ordinary least square [OLS]), fixed effects, and random effects are tested to explore the determinants of FDI in BRICS countries over a period of 31 years, that is, 1983–2013 (except for Russia whose data is available from 1995–2013 for the selected variables in the study). The empirical results of the modified random effects model reveal that industrial production index (IPI), inflation rates, unemployment rates, trade openness and real effective exchange rate (REER) are significant at 1 percent significance level whereas labor cost is statistically significant at 10 percent significance level which means that these are the most significant determinants in attracting FDI inflows in BRICS countries. This study is significant because there are various researchers who have contributed to the literature of determinants of FDI but there is hardly any study which documents the factors attracting FDI inflows in BRICS countries covering a long period of more than three decades.

“…Business environment where positive effects of FDI inflow dominate potentially negative effects is a goal every transition country should work towards. This gains in importance if one takes into account the empirical research which proved that in fast-growing economies, which comprise transition economies, 1% increase in the share of FDI in GDP is associated with 0.8% increase in the growth rate of GDP per capita (Bergsman, Broadma, & Drebentsov, 2000). This paper examines the influence of FDIs on: level of competition, balance of payment, investment climate and development, spread of technology and employment rate.…”

In the past few decades globalization and deregulation of international economy has been noticeably accelerated. Consequently, new globalized business environment with numerous business opportunities as well as growing business risks has been made. The new business environment opened the door to intensive implementation of acquisitions as a market entry strategy. Foreign direct investments (FDI) in most of transition countries, including Serbia, predominantly come
