Default Installing foil backed insullation board.

If I finish my basement and start by placing insulation foam board
against the basement walls, which way should the foil face ? * I have
seen it installed so that the foil faces the interior, but logic would
lead you to think that the foil should be on the outside and the foam
turned inside.


Any help is appreciated.
