System Elements for Infrastructure
of Investments Attraction
production (modern logistics centres and hubs,
transportation networks, warehousing facilities)
organisation of the economy (various centres
and services dealing with promotion of investments,
their insurance and export promotion)
quality of life (system of additional health
insurance, information support and other social
systems)
Main Reasons for Insufficient
Amounts of Attracted Investments
lacking well-developed infrastructure for attraction
of investments
insufficient development of the stock market, land
and real estate market, and the capital market
absence of prepared projects
direct foreign investments are
focused on several large-scale projects
being implemented under the auspices
of the republic's government
investments in ordinary projects are
virtually absent, though the republic has
some excessive investment resources
Composition of Investors
as a rule, only technologically related to
the enterprise are being invested
those primarily interested in the source of
raw material, a place for arranging the
production, and cheaper labour force
for the most part, investors do not
consider our economy as a safe and expedient
place to invest money and make profit
Programme for Improving the
Investment Attractiveness of the
Republic of Tatarstan
aimed at implementation of pilot infrastructural projects
identified by the Government of Tatarstan as priority
projects oriented to international financial and business
community

centres

commercial basis, with the use of insurance mechanisms
and instruments of securities market
Measures to Improve the Investment Attractiveness
of the Republic of Tatarstan
 Increasing the growth rates of people’s real income
 Increasing the financial efficiency of existing enterprises
 Attracting to the republic most high-performance and technologically
advanced enterprises
 Encouraging enterprises which provide the best earning records and
highest pay rises
 Providing incentives to the process of production re-equipment,
replacement and withdrawal of fixed assets
 Providing priority incentives to small business development as a factor to
increase the level of people’s real income and to meet consumer demand
for goods and services
 Developing transportation and communication infrastructure – primarily,
through wider use of up-to-date communication facilities
 Encouraging the funding of sciences and scientific services, establishing
technology parks and hi-tech cities
