The investment climate of Russian regions was discussed at the RUSSIA EXPO
Participants
of the expert panel "Investment Climate: Our Prospects in 2024?" discussed the
implementation of the regional investment standard, including the mechanism of
feedback from business and improvement of legislation. A new brand of the
regional investment standard prepared by ANO "Dialogue" was also presented at
the event.
"The great
thing about the investment climate is that we can discuss it everywhere and
always, we always have something to share. Today we will talk about the
regional investment standard: how it is being implemented, what prospects it
has. We will cover many topics — this is the beauty of our session, where we
talk from the federal, regional, municipal levels, as well as from the business
community," said Oleg Kondratenko, Deputy Director of the Graduate School of
Public Administration of the RANEPA.
Alexander
Molodtsov spoke about the current status of the implementation of the regional
investment standard and plans for 2024.
"The
results of our work still amaze me, starting with the recognizability of the
regional investment standard. Just recently there was a congress of the Russian
Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, where Russian President Vladimir
Putin spoke for quite a long time about the regional investment standard and
invited everyone to summarize the results of the launch of the program. It
seems to me that this is a very serious recognition that our volunteer work has
a concrete, measurable and understandable manifestation. There is a result,
which is felt by business," emphasized Alexander Molodtsov, Director of the
Department of Labor Productivity, Protection and Encouragement of Capital
Investments of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation.
Maria
Glukhova in her speech addressed the topic of improving investment legislation
in the country.
"Our
business is quite positive about the situation in the economy, it invested
actively last year and plans to continue to do so. First of all, we are talking
about modernization of equipment, some companies are going to allocate funds
for overhaul of buildings and facilities, to supply new equipment. There is a
growing share of companies that intend to allocate funds for employee training
and invest in research and development," said Maria Glukhova, Executive Vice
President of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.
The session
also included speeches by Rustam Muratov, First Deputy Prime Minister of the
Government of the Republic of Bashkortostan, Minister of Economic Development
and Investment Policy of the Republic of Bashkortostan, who spoke about plans
to implement a feedback mechanism with business in Bashkortostan; Ekaterina
Gugnyaeva, Deputy Head of the Mikhailovka Urban District of the Volgograd
Region for Economy and Property Management, who addressed the topic of measures
to increase the investment attractiveness of municipalities; and Ksenia
Mashkova, head of the creative laboratory of the ANO "Dialogue" who
presented the new brand of the regional investment standard.
