Serbian Finance Minister Siniša Mali said at a meeting with investors from the United States that Serbia has cumulatively attracted 15.9 billion euros in foreign direct investments since 2020.
Mali pointed out that this was achieved in the years of crisis, when the European economy was on the seesaw of recession and when, after the pandemic, the energy crisis, disruptions in the supply chain and war conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza alternated, the Ministry of Finance of Serbia announced.
He pointed out that Serbia does not differentiate between domestic and foreign investors and told American investors that he hopes to find projects and investment opportunities in Serbia.
Mali reminded that last year Serbia achieved GDP growth of 2.5 percent, and in February of this year it grew by 5.9 percent, adding that this growth was based on exports and investments and that official statistics show that every economic branch records growth.
He said that with the implementation of the “Serbia 2027” and “Expo” projects, Serbia is expected to become the largest construction site in Europe, as total investments in all sectors will amount to around 18 billion euros.
