The EY European Attractiveness Survey 2026 found that foreign direct investment (FDI) projects into Europe fell 7%. Even so, the region still drew more than 5,000 new projects.

A few takeaways for anyone doing business across borders:

📍 The map is changing. France, the UK and Germany are still the top destinations, but all three declined. Meanwhile, Poland (+10%), Spain (+7%) and Turkey (+20%) grew, helped by competitive labor costs and expanding digital ecosystems.

🚀 Strategic sectors are booming. AI projects rose 96% and defense projects rose 84%. Low-carbon energy grew 25%.

⚠️ Traditional industry is under pressure. Projects fell in healthcare manufacturing (-28%), chemicals (-19%) and automotive (-11%), weighed down by high energy and production costs.

💡 Confidence holds. 54% of leaders still plan to set up or expand operations in Europe this year, and 60% expect Europe's attractiveness to improve over the next three years.

Growth hasn't stopped. It has moved into new regions and new sectors.

🌎 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 (𝗙𝗗𝗜)?

FDI is one of the key forces shaping the global economy — but what does it actually mean for businesses?

In simple terms, FDI occurs when an individual or company from one country invests in a business or assets in another country with the intention of establishing a lasting interest.
It can take many forms, from establishing a new operation overseas to acquiring or investing in an existing company.

Understanding FDI matters for businesses considering international expansion because investment decisions are closely connected to market access, regulations, economic conditions, and long-term growth opportunities.

As companies look beyond their home markets, knowing how FDI works can help make sense of where capital is moving — and why.
