Abstrakt: Since 2011, Cote d'Ivoire has been increasing its incentive policies to attract foreign investors. In order to benefit from the impact that this foreign direct capital can have on its economic development. The contribution of foreign direct investment to countries' development is unprecedented today, especially in developing countries. Economic growth strategies now place a strong emphasis on the promotion of FDI due to the insufficient resources available to finance countries' development and the growing difficulties encountered in combating poverty. In a highly competitive environment fuelled by globalization, the need for financial resources is taking on enormous proportions. In doing so, the inflow of foreign capital appears to be a boon for any state facing social and economic challenges. Cote d'Ivoire, like other developing countries, has launched many reforms such as the adoption of a new investment code, the creation of a trade tribunal and the establishment of an investment promotion centre. All these reforms to enable the Ivorian territory to meet the requirements of foreign investors (multinational companies) and make the country attractive. It is with this in mind that our article aims to identify the determinants of foreign direct investment over the period 2003-2016. To do this, we conducted an econometric study using the VAR method. This method has enabled us to distinguish the factors that illustrate the attractiveness of the Ivorian territory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
