Abstract

The article analyzes the rank of Ukraine in the world ranking of competitiveness and how dynamic its position has changed. The analysis of the main components of the index of global competitiveness allows to summarize the factors that impact positively and negatively on attracting investment and creating a favorable investment environment. This negative impact negatively affects the investment security as well. Among all pillars just 5th pillar “Higher education and training” and 12th pillar “Innovation” have positive dynamic in ranking. But this positive affect can be neutralized by low quality of main fundamental indicators as “Institutions”, “Infrastructure”, “Macroeconomic environment” etc. In fact, these indicators and it’s level can increase competitiveness of the country and show the country’s success and effectiveness of the various areas of the market economy.
