Last year was a low point for Hungary in terms of foreign direct investment (FDI), economy minister Istvan Varga said at a conference organised by the Joint Venture Association, the Hungarian Investment and Trade Development Agency and the Hungarian Foreign Trade Association on Tuesday.
About EUR 2bn of FDI is estimated to have arrived in Hungary last year, down from EUR 3.4bn in 2008, Mr Varga said.
