Moreover, it is at the conjunction of many investment and commercial routes. These advantages disposition gives Turkey a favorable investment climate especially in the form of FDI. The volume of FDI in the world is well over 1 trillion USDs, but Turkey can attract only a small amount of it. Even tough Turkey has substantial foreign debt and commercial deficits, it still has a strong government with political stability. Thus, the aim of this paper is to present the literature on FDI, FDI and economic growth nexus, a historical background of FDI in Turkey, and FDI's contributions to the Turkish economy.
