The main trends in the formation of legislation legislation regulating foreign investments in the Russian Federation in modern conditions

The authors analyzed the formation of normative legal regulation of relations related to investment activities in the Russian Federation. Tendencies have been identified for the transition of investment policy from the most favored nation regime for foreign investment to the establishment of restrictions for foreign investors in the national interests of the state due to the transition of the Russian economy to domestic sources of financing. It is concluded that the development of investment legislation also depends on the effectiveness of foreign trade and financial relations with friendly countries.
