The aim of the study is to improve the methodology of forecasting of the territorial proportions of fixed capital investments within the medium-term forecast of the social and economic development of Russia. The author proposes a method of decomposition of predicted national indicators at the regional level which takes into account the prospects of attracting private investments and implementing large investment projects with the state participation. The researcher describes the system of factors determining the interregional differences of private investors’ activity and forming the metric basis of complex estimation of the regional investment attractiveness using the official statistics. The paper presents the list and methods for estimating the indicators characterizing the production, financial, consumer, institutional, innovative, infrastructure and natural-resource components of the region’s investment potential, as well as social, environmental and technological regional investment risks. The paper shows the opportunities of using the functional relationship for the medium-term forecasting between the integral regional indicators of the investment attractiveness and activity. The national forecast has been decomposed by calculating the individual regional deviations of the forecasted national growth rate of fixed investment in Russia for 2019–2024. The developed variants of perspective territorial proportions confirm the possibility to achieve the national target of the forecast presented as a 25 percent share of the fixed investment in GDP of Russia and reflect the core perspective destinations of development for different parts of the country – the accelerated development of the Far East, the Arctic zone, the largest metropolitan areas of Russia, as well as the provision of national security in the geostrategic regions of the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts. The approach is designed to support the administrative decisions concerning the spatial development by linking regional and investment policy priorities.

Ukraine's agricultural sector accounts for 17% of the country's GDP and is continuously growing. For six consecutive years (2013-2018), Ukraine harvested over 60 million tons of grain annually, and 2018 export of ag commodities reached $18.6 billion. (State, 2020).  The anticipated land reform envisions lifting the moratorium on the agricultural land sale, which should encourage capital investments in ag.  The article analyzes the trends of investment opportunities in the Ukrainian ag sector for the last decade. The regression analysis of labor productivity with variables of fixed capital-worker ratio and yield of grain confirmed that the function of labor productivity depended on the value of fixed capital per worker.  As the U.S. investment in ag machinery export to Ukraine plays a significant role, we evaluated its effect on the current level of labor productivity in the Ukrainian agribusiness, comparing it with the U.S. farming outcome.

The aim of this paper is to verify both the impact and influences when investing in fixed assets on probability of default. Using data from an extensive sample of Italian firms (6,000 Italian SMEs), we find that fixed assets are negatively related to efficiency and this fact leads to a greater instability with the consequence of a direct impact on the risk of insolvency. A portrait of firms in 2011, after the flash-over of the current economic downturn, subdividing them in firms that made fixed capital investments in 2008, three years before, and the others, which had no plan to increase tangible fixed assets. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that the solvency ought to decrease with rigidity of assets, especially in the area of commercial firms.
