Descrption - Empirical and theoretical evidence suggest that countries at certain level of development change from being Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) receptors to FDI donors. This applies also to V4 members. Increasing outward FDI can be associated with a number of benefits. The aim of this project is to investigate (post) crisis practices of OFDI polices in the Visegrad countries. It shall constitute the first step for a more comprehensive research concerning the role played by official assistance in this respect i.e. economic diplomacy pursued.
