The basic assumption of the study was the existence – on a global scale – of the unequal distribution of the manufacturing factors created by the foreign direct investment. The attempt of careful examination and later presentation of the findings on the asymmetric character of the greenfield international economic initiatives configuration, in relation to various sectors and space, was assumed to be the main objective of the following study. Empirical analysis of the investment projects, completed between the years 2003-2012, with the use of the selected statistical methods and indicators (of variability, correlation, structure, dynamics and investment readiness of economy) were employed for the accomplishment of the task. The research appeared to prove the asymmetric distribution of the greenfield foreign investment, basically due to the structuralized changeability of the global economy. Generally, this asymmetry concerned the value of the investments, the number of projects under realization and their concentration in particular sectors of economy. Particularly clear disproportions were observed in the geographical structure, whereas the unit value of the realized projects could have been described as relatively proportional.
