Abstract
The paper presents growth determinants in Ukraine, with a focus upon qualitative features of capital inflows and empirical arguments in favor of knowledge-oriented domestic and foreign investments. Firstly, the features of capital flows in Ukraine are outlined. Secondly, the necessary theoretical framework to study the effects of FDI on economic growth is provided with the help of Romer dynamic macro model. Thirdly, the relationship between GDP growth and factors of innovative development is estimated.
