Summary/Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to identify how fiscal policy decisions influence the flow of foreign direct investment and how sensitive is the level of FDI to changes in tax rates applicable to companies. The case study was conducted on the Romania case for the period 2005-2016. The conclusion of the study reveals how a set of restrictive fiscal policies, materialized in a higher level of tax obligations applied to companies, leads to a decrease in the level of foreign direct investment.
