摘要：
This study explores the effects of Bilateral Investment Treaties (BIT) and Regional Trade Agreements (RTA) on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into Serbia, utilizing panel data for 2010-2021. The results indicate that both BIT and RTA independently exert positive impacts on Serbia's inward FDI. Also, the interaction effects between BIT and RTA dummies and export/import variables on inward FDI are positive. This suggests that the implementation of BITs and/or RTAs fosters a complementary relationship between trade and FDI in Serbia as the predominant type of FDIs from partner states with which Serbia shares BITs and/or RTAs is vertical and export-platform rather than horizontal.
