Public Policy and International Investment Position in European Integration of Ukraine
This research investigates the influence of public policy on the relationship between GDP and NIIP selected components, namely assets, liabilities, direct, portfolio and other investment of Ukraine in the context of Ukraine’s aspirations for European integration.
