These investments are aimed at ensuring the stability of these variables by including the resources that are idle due to the lack of R & D infrastructure. This type of investment provides real production control. In this direction, liberal economic policies gained momentum in the international market in the 1980s when the increase in production and economic trade with the development of the free market led to an increase in interest in foreign direct investments. This study examines the relationship between foreign direct investment and foreign trade, economic growth and unemployment. The relationship between variables was analyzed using quarterly data of 2000-2018 Turkey's economy and relations Granger causality test was performed to detect. As a result, the causality between foreign direct investment and foreign trade and economic growth was found to be bi-directional.

According to the error correction model results; 1% increase in foreign direct investment increased foreign trade by approximately %0.18 and economic growth by % 0.16.
