Foreign direct investments are distinguished as one of the most effective tools to encourage the economic growth of a country.

Lithuania creates investment strategies and encourages coming of foreign capital. Current economic environment in a country is characterized by economic factors related to country’s economic activity, its development and trends, therefore in this paper, the investment climate in Lithuania is analyzed and experiences and features of raising foreign capital in a small country is disclosed. The main factors distinguished in Lithuania are stable economic and political environment, related to economic growth and joining the European Union; this is clearly reflected by the increasing investments.Посилання
