Abstract:
The goal of this research is to provide insight into the broad topic of corruption and organized crime as defined by FDI ratings and scores, as well as its impact on the global performance of enterprises, with an emphasis on the business sector. In order to provide important insights on the development of scientific papers on this topic, this study includes a thorough examination of the body of current literature as well as a bibliometric analysis. The current study shows the results of a thorough examination of relevant literature using the QDA Miner qualitative analysis tool and the Scopus database. The work shows that there are limitations in respect of scientific literature on corruption and organized crime in correlation with FDI. At the same time, there is a complex and nuanced relationship between economic growth, corruption, and FDI absorption, which is well reflected in the existing academic literature.
