Under these conditions, the degradation of industrial structure is enhanced, the "scattering" of investment resources takes place as well as the increase of deficit in the industries which are the most priority and perspective for the development of the country. Therefore, the study of the efficiency of investment processes in the industrial region, as well as the existing models of investing in fixed assets represents an urgent task.
