Investment activities in the financial market of the Russian Federation

Investments play an important role in the economic development of the country. They have a significant impact on increasing the production potential of the economy, allowing for a policy of expanded reproduction, improving the quality and ensuring the competitiveness of products, carrying out structural changes in the economy, and developing all its sectors in a balanced manner. At the micro level, investments contribute to ensuring the functioning of enterprises, a stable financial condition and maximizing the profits of business entities. Without investment, it will be much more difficult to ensure the relevance and competitiveness of products, as well as to overcome the moral and technical wear and tear of assets, and to modernize production methods. Any investment, regardless of the form of its implementation, becomes a factor of economic growth, provided that the financial system and the real sector of the economy interact, which allows short-term financial flows to turn into long-term capital investments. Such interaction is enhanced in the presence of such prerequisites as: compatibility of financial and industrial interests, a combination of national and foreign investments, investments in structural transformations, the development of private entrepreneurship, an increase in the share of savings of the population in investment form.
