FINAL CONCLUSION
This research work generated the following conclusions:
1. The investment attractiveness of a country is a set of objective economic, social
and natural characteristics, tools, opportunities and restrictions that determine the influx of
investment into the territory and are assessed by investment activity. In turn, a country’s
investment activity can be viewed as the intensity of investment inflows. The integral
investment attractiveness of a country/region is the total level of objective socio-economic,
natural-geographical and environmental indicators that characterize the conditions of
economic development of the country/region and have a positive or negative impact on the
formation of investment activity in the country/region. This.
2. The political situation can play an important role in economic activity in the
country, primarily in relation to foreign economic agents. Two variables are used to measure
them. These are investment ratings of regions, investment potential and risk ratings. The
volume of investments directed into fixed assets reflects the general investment environment
of the region.
The activity of domestic investors is a positive signal for foreign investors. The degree
of openness of a region is associated, first of all, with the volume of foreign trade and imports
and exports. According to some researchers, the geographical features of the region are also
an incentive for the influx of foreign direct investment.
also be taken into account that the closer the region is to the capital , the higher the
volume of foreign direct investment directed to this region. Because in this case transaction
costs will be much lower. The group of factors listed above forms the relative advantage of
the region in the process of attracting foreign direct investment. At the same time, foreign
investors take into account regional factors not only individually, but also their sum.
3. According to the results of an analysis of trends occurring in the world, in all
developed countries, agriculture is in one sense or another encouraged by the state and is
annually allocated subsidies/subsidies from the state budget. Due to the low investment
attractiveness of the agricultural sector compared to other industries, investors often try to
direct their funds to a sector that generates high income.
Considering the investment attractiveness of the region as one of the main aspects of
investment direction, making an informed decision is the most important condition for
achieving the intended goal.
In the long term, in order to ensure the socio-economic development of regions
specializing in the agricultural sector, it is advisable to give priority to the following areas:
increase industrial production, strengthen structural reforms and increase the share
of the industrial sector in GDP;
development of cooperation between agriculture and industry in order to intensify
reproduction;
placement of productive forces taking into account the type and volume of natural
and local raw materials resources available on the territory;
