Assessment of the impact of investment attractiveness on the economic security of the region

Abstract

Ensuring the economic security of a macro-region (country, region) is largely characterized by the creation of an effective system for organizing control over financial activities in the state, limiting the outflow of capital from the national economy. This requires a comprehensive solution to the legal, political and administrative task of protecting national interests. One of the priorities in the national security system is the economic security of the state, which is characterized by the presence of a steadily developing economy. The basic indicator of the "economic health" of the state is the presence of a favorable investment climate, which is characterized by the ratio of investment attractiveness and investment risks, which is manifested in the scale, structure and dynamics of investment processes. Modern trends that indicate instability, unfavorable market conditions and lack of transparency in investment activities in the Russian context confirm the relevance and timeliness of this study. An assessment of the impact of investment attractiveness on the economic security of the region showed the following results: the stability of the financial system of the region is gradually declining; there is a colossal dependence of the region's economy on imports; support for the scientific potential of the region is insignificant, which is reflected in the low indicator of education funding; indicators related to the social sphere and the standard of living of the population differ significantly from the threshold values. Underfunding of the social sphere is a trend typical for most regions of the Russian Federation, including economically developed ones.
