The country attracted foreign direct investments (FDI) worth EUR 468mn in the first nine months of the year, according to data from the Montenegrin Investment Promotion Agency (MIPA) published by seebiz.eu newswire. FDI inflow is seen reaching some EUR 660-680mn by the end of 2010, MIPA's head, Petar Ivanovic, said.
