This procedure comprises the selection of the optimum alternative with respect to the evaluation criteria under consideration in particular to select the type of investment. However, the selection of the investment is difficult on account of taking into account numerous quantitative and qualitative parameters like benefits, opportunities, costs, and risks.On the other hand, according to the information is incomplete or unavailable, uncertainty is an inseparable part of making decision for solving the MCDM problems. Therefore, this paper proposes a new hybrid model based on analytic network process (ANP) and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) techniques under fuzzy environment to evaluatethe problem of the selection of the type of the investment. To demonstrate the potential application of the proposed model, a numerical example is illustrated and investigated.
