STATE’S ROLE IN PROMOTING INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES IN UKRAINE

Abstract

The article examines the role of the state in stimulating investment activity in Ukraine.It was determined that the main shortcomings of the state regulation of investment activities in Ukraine can be called:- Uncertainty of the institutional and legal mechanism regarding the attraction of non-state investments, in particular the development and strengthening of public-private partnerships.- Slowness and insufficient government support in the field of introducing the latest technologies and innovations.- Unfavorable climate for investments in Ukraine, in particular due to the global financial and economic crisis, which led to the maximum inaccessibility of international financial resources.- lack of effective mechanisms for partnership between the public and private sectors in the implementation of investment projects, etc.The structure of capital investments by sources of their financing is analyzed. It was established that the main source is the own funds of enterprises and organizations, which make up 68% of all capital investments.The dynamics of the inflow of capital investments into Ukraine for 2015–2020 were studied. It was determined that the dynamics of capital investments into Ukraine is positive, but not resistant to external factors. Therefore, it is important to improve the regulation of investment policy in order to increase the amount of income. It is well-founded that the system of regulation of the conditions of investment activity is not stable, it must be regulated depending on the socio-economic situation and the level of investment activity of economic entities in the current period. Methods for stimulating investment demand are proposed: increase in government spending, decrease in taxes, interest rates, increase in money supply, interventions in the stock market.
