Abstract

Poznato je da članstvo u Europskoj uniji utječe na porast broja izravnih stranih ulaganja. Jedan od razloga za to je regulacija inozemnih stranih ulaganja na razini EU, kao i na razini država članica. U ovom radu nalazi se pregled regulacije izravnih stranih ulaganja od začetka Europske unije, kada su izravna strana ulaganja bila u isključivoj nadležnosti država članica. Nadalje, ovaj rad prikazuje razvoj regulacije izravnih stranih ulaganja nakon donošenja Ugovora iz Lisabona, kada su izravna strana ulaganja prešla u isključivu nadležnost Europske unije. Zatim prikazuje najnoviji dodatak regulaciji izravnih stranih ulaganja u EU - Uredbu o uspostavi okvira za provjeru izravnih stranih ulaganja u Uniji. Ovaj rad također pozicionira izravna strana ulaganja u kontekst slobode kretanja kapitala kako je ona navedena u Ugovoru o funkcioniranju Europske unije. Naglasak druge polovice ovog rada je na Uredbi o uspostavi okvira za provjeru izravnih stranih ulaganja u Uniji. U ovom dijelu nalaze se razlozi donošenja Uredbe, kratki pregled odredbi Uredbe i načina primjene Uredbe u državama članicama kao i uloga koju je Uredba imala u nošenju sa izazovima krize izazvane pandemijom COVID-19. U posljednjem dijelu rada nalazi se prikaz procjene utjecaja Uredbe na tok izravnih stranih ulaganja u EU.

Abstract (english)

The effect of the EU membership has been proven to be exceptionally valuable in securing the high levels of foreign direct investment (FDI) flows. One of the reasons for this lies in the regulation of the FDI on the EU level, as well as on the Member State level. This master thesis provides an overview of the FDI regulation since the beginning of the European Union, when FDI was under the exclusive competences of the Member States. It follows with the development of FDI regulation in relations to the Lisbon Treaty, when FDI became one of the exclusive competences of the EU. Lastly, it finishes with the new FDI Screening Regulation that was adopted in 2019. It also identifies the main legal challenges that foreign investors are facing in the EU Member States nowadays. Moreover, this master thesis places FDI in the context of free movement of capital and provides with an overview on the regulation of that freedom in the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU. One of the focal points of this thesis is the EU framework for screening of FDI. There is a short summary on the reasons behind its creation and an outline of its provisions, as well as its role in coping with the COVID-19 crisis and the general information on its application.
