Problems of assessing the investment attractiveness of the region's territory

Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to conduct a comparative analysis of existing methods for assessing the investment attractiveness of territories, as well as to determine their shortcomings and problems of their use. For this purpose, the existing methods of assessing the investment climate and attractiveness were described, and their critical and comparative analysis was carried out. As a result, it was concluded that the existing methodological approaches to assessing the investment attractiveness of the territory do not simultaneously reflect the objective situation in the analyzed socio-economic system, the sectoral specialization of the local economy and do not allow determining the directions of state management of the investment process, which confirms the relevance and need to develop an appropriate methodology for evaluating the category under study. The next stage of the research will be devoted to solving this problem and will be presented by the author in future publications. The materials of the article can be used by regional and municipal authorities in determining ways to assess the investment attractiveness of territories based on their tasks.
