Summary/Abstract: The picture observed in 2011 in the field of attracting foreign investments was not much different from previous years. A single large sale accounted for a large share of FDI attracted over the year. The government continues to view privatization only from a fiscal point of view, which is reflected in the low growth rates of external capital inflow into the economy. The financial crisis has further complicated the process of finding an investor. The measures taken by the Government and the National Bank managed to stabilize the situation by mid-autumn. There have also been changes in taxation aimed at increasing investment activity.
