Abstract:
Foreign investment inflows can both positively and negatively affect a country's balance of payments. The balance of payments reflects economic and financial transactions, which relate to goods, services, income, transfers and receivables, and financial obligations with external partners. Vertical foreign investments speculated on the production of part of the final product will impose exports, and horizontal ones, in which the business model of the home market is imitated, will increase imports.

Keywords: balance of payments, trade deficit, exchange rate, fdi, impact of fdi
