Author(s): Dr. Ajay Garg

Abstract
Greece’s efforts to reposition itself as a competitive destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) have intensified significantly since the economic crises that unfolded between 2009 and 2015. The nation’s macroeconomic instability high unemployment structural deficits and weakened industrial infrastructure created an urgent need for sustainable growth strategies based on foreign capital inflows. In such a context examining the types of multinational corporations (MNCs) that Greece may attract becomes an important academic and policy-oriented exercise. Between 2000 and 2018 Greece undertook major fiscal and regulatory reforms—ranging from labor market restructuring and corporate tax rationalization to public administration modernization and market liberalization—to enhance its investment climate. These reforms aim to strengthen economic resilience reduce bureaucratic barriers and align the national economy with broader European Union frameworks and international competitiveness requirements.
