Given that the current economic disparities have piled up in time, “catching the end” is a lengthy process and requires a significant improvement in the economic, institutional and legislative framework and not least in the concentration of social politics for a more inclusive development. The purpose of this paper lies in analyzing regional disparities and foreign direct investment (FDI) in Romania, in 2013, from the perspective of several structural analyses. Through the structural analysis of foreign direct investment we aim to identify the concentration of foreign capital on the source countries, regional destinations and areas of economic activities.
