Summary
Today, the effective functioning of the Bulgarian economy is unthinkable without foreign investments. The inflow of investments in our country from other countries, incl. of direct investments, is growing, especially after 2007. Their origin is diverse, but the leading place among foreign investors in Bulgaria is occupied by the Federal Republic of Germany. The volume of direct German investments in our country is constantly increasing, they are in various branches and industries, located in almost all regions of the country, and the majority of them are “green” investments. The largest direct German investment in our country – “Aurubis Bulgaria”, is focused in an export-oriented branch (metallurgy) that is key to the development of the national economy. The purpose of the present study is to identify and evaluate the main areas of influence exerted at the regional level by direct German investments, following the example of “Aurubis Bulgaria”. The object of the research is the realized German investment in “Aurubis Bulgaria”, and the subject – the influence it has at the regional level (the region of the Sredna gora region, covering the municipalities of Chavdar, Anton, Chelopech, Zlatitsa, Pirdop, Koprivshtitsa and Mirkovo). The results of the research confirmed the main research thesis that the activity of the German company has a multi-directional impact on life in the municipalities of the Sredna Gora Region and their development – an impact on the development of local business, competition, regional infrastructure, employment, income and the level of unemployment, municipal revenues, internal migration, the environment environment, social life, etc.
