“…The initial results obtained in this paper, the regression equations corresponding to the econometric models of the FDI stock, the interpretation of the results and possible measures that can be taken to increase the stock of FDI in the countries that were analyzed are all included in the fourth section of this paper. We can also say that the novel elements of this work, compared to the research that has been conducted in the past (see, for example, Hayat 2019;Dauti 2015;Sakali 2015;Stack et al 2017;Jankovic and Yatrakis 2011;Burlea-Schiopoiu et al 2021), consist in the original combination of economic indicators from the validated regression models, which explain more than 78% of the evolution of FDI stocks in the analyzed countries. Finally, the findings and interpretations of the research are presented in the fifth section of this paper.…”

Given the importance of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the economy, the purpose of this study is to identify and investigate the economic indicators that can explain the development of FDI in the economies of Central and Eastern European countries such as the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, and Slovenia throughout the period 1995–2020. When developing multiple linear regression models, the following explanatory variables were considered: exports, imports, import concentration and diversification indices, the balance of trade, the balance of payments, and different components of the economic freedom index. Therefore, it was shown that a rise in exports and imports has a beneficial impact on enhancing the flow of foreign direct investment (FDI) in each of the nations examined for this study. Furthermore, an increase in the value of the import diversification index is shown to have a beneficial effect on the levels of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovenia, as determined by this study. On the other hand, the import concentration index has been shown to benefit foreign direct investment in Poland. Furthermore, it was discovered that the balance of payments was a positive factor in the Hungarian economy. In contrast, the trade balance was shown to be a positive element in Poland and Slovenia. Both indicators have positively impacted foreign direct investment (FDI) flow.
