Attracting foreign investors is not only influential for the economy; it has also a lot of consequences and effects on the social welfare of citizens in developing host countries. The purpose of this paper is to show if there is a social impact of foreign direct investments inflows to developing countries and to determine whether or not this investments contribute to the well-being of society. This paper also analyzes if the impact has a positive or negative effect and which are the current trends in the relation between investments flows and society.
