Abstract

Being on a verge of a historic moment, the first country to leave the EU, we have as main objective the analysis on the impact in the media on the influence on Brexit’s FDI across the union. Unlike previous studies, our research falls between two key moments, the decision of the UK to leave the EU, until signing documents. Our research is a qualitative study carried out by analyzing the content of a set of articles from the period 2016-2017 of the first publications in the UK, both in terms of readers and granted confidence according to the ATLAS.ti workbench for data processing. The result lies in a better understanding of the effect that it has Brexit on the FDI both in the UK and in the entire union. The added value of this paper constitutes a forecast of the situation in the foreign investments medium term in the European space with a legislative support.
