Description

Kosovo is one of the newest countries in the world. Located in southeastern Europe, Kosovo has immense untapped potential, making it an increasingly attractive country in the region and the whole Europe. Given its current state of transition, Kosovo’s economy is considered one of the poorest economies in the region requiring an increase in its foreign direct investments. Such growth will facilitate a developing curve to overcome its many socioeconomic limitations. Foreign direct investments are an important tool for economic development and growth. As part of the early stages of state building, Kosovo is facing many challenges to create a stable and attractive environment for foreign investments. On the other hand, Kosovo possesses natural and human resources which create a suitable environment and need for foreign investments. As a result of this dynamic, this study will provide a strategic approach to highlight and analyze the opportunities of foreign direct investments in Kosovo and the severe challenges it is currently facing.

The purpose of this study is to examine the interaction between foreign direct investment (FDI) and the main obstacles that Kosovo is facing in the process of economic development. The examination is based on the comparison of previous reports related to the same issue and the new findings from the primary data collected specifically for this study. The research will also act as a platform for changing Kosovo’s external image, in attempts to rebrand its economic perception regionally and globally.
