In this study, it is aimed to guide in foreign investors' decisions on portfolio investment decisions by using multi-purpose decision making techniques. To this end, G7 countries were identified as investors. As countries to be invested, selected countries in the Balkans were included in the analysis. Criteria used during the analysis are economic and locally defined as two main factors and their sub-factors. AHP method was used as multi-purpose decision making techniques to determine the weight of the criteria and MOORA was used to determine the Balkan country to be invested. As a result, findings show that for making investment decision to a country, country’s GNP amounts, commercial climate and investment freedom about the country are the most effective factors but geographic distance and information cost factors are the least effective factors.
