АНАЛІЗУВАННЯ ІНВЕСТИЦІЙНОГО КЛІМАТУ УКРАЇНИ В ПЕРІОД ВОЄННОГО СТАНУ

Abstract

For Ukraine, the investment climate is one of the main factors in ensuring its stable development, which means that all economic activities in the country are on a sustainable socio-economic development path. The investment climate is an important and determining factor in the decision of foreign or domestic investors to invest. It is a combination of investment attractiveness factors and investment risk factors. The article provides a detailed analysis of Ukraine's investment attractiveness for foreign investors. The problematic aspects of legislative and managerial nature in attracting foreign investment are highlighted. The real state of investment attraction in 2019–2022 is reflected. The index of investment attractiveness for 2019–2023 is investigated. The dynamics and structure of foreign direct investment in the economy of Ukraine by types of economic activity for 2019–2022 are presented. Foreign investment is undoubtedly one of the leading drivers of economic growth for many countries, including Ukraine. Foreign investment can increase competition in the market by investing in lagging enterprises, improve the welfare of citizens, and strengthen the competitiveness of recipient enterprises on the global stage. Studies have shown that the net inflow of foreign direct investment significantly exceeds the net outflow. Although the investment attractiveness index is still low, the number of top managers who believe that new investments in Ukraine will be profitable has almost doubled. The government continues to develop legislation to capitalize on this potential with numerous draft laws on corporate governance and other economic reforms aimed at bringing Ukraine in line with EU standards and regulations currently being advanced. In Ukraine, the most attractive sectors of the economy for foreign investors are financial and insurance activities, trade, and information and communications. Ukraine's increasing movement toward integration with the EU opens up potential opportunities for investors seeking access to the EU market. The support from the European community and the United States is significant. After Ukraine's victory, the investment attractiveness of our country will certainly increase.
