The Perspective Directions of Modeling the Processes of Estimation and Analysis of Investment Component of the Socio-Economic Development of Region

Abstract

The publication is devoted to highlighting the results of the study of the existing practice of evaluating and analyzing the indicators that determine and characterize investment processes at the regional level. The carried out analysis of available methods of assessment of the investment climate of region showed that quite often in the process of research a number of factors are not taken into account, which, under other equal conditions, can become pivotal in the process of deciding whether to invest or abandon such an intention. It is proved that the size and efficiency of use of the investment climate of individual territorial systems and entire regions will depend both on the level of investment attractiveness and investment activity, as well as on investment potential and the level of investment security provided. In other words, precisely investment potential and investment security act as prerequisites and a basis for the formation and practical implementation of investment policy at both the national and the local levels. As a result of the carried out analysis of the extant approaches to solving the problem of evaluation and analysis of the main parameters and characteristics of investment activity at the regional level, the main shortcomings and weaknesses of the currently available developments are identified. This made possible to outline promising areas of analysis using the advantages and capabilities of economic and mathematical methods and models. A practical implementation of the perspective directions of analysis with the use of an appropriate economic and mathematical instrumentarium allows to form models for assessing and analyzing the investment component of the socio-economic development of region, as well as projecting scenarios for regional socio-ecological and economic development in the short and medium term.
