This article seeks to assess the effectiveness of attracting foreign investment in Ukraine. Within the scope of the research, investment activity is considered a key driver for economic development. It is emphasised that boosting economic growth in Ukraine depends heavily on attracting foreign investment as their effects extend to encouraging the national output, the speed of its technological advancements as well as the scale and pace of economic restructuring. The purpose and objectives of the study are to explore and evaluate the effectiveness of foreign investment in Ukraine's economy along with offering the authors’ understanding of the key factors affecting the investment climate and suggesting the most promising pathways to foster investment efficiency in Ukraine. It is argued that this study has a number of significant implications to Ukraine, since investment processes to a great extent underpin market development strategies, and entail the most important mechanisms for creating appropriate environment to overcome the structural economic crisis, implement structural changes in the production sector, promote innovation and enhance economic performance at the micro- and macrolevels. The research methodology involves general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, and the generalization techniques. The findings reveal a whole range of crucial factors behind the investment process crisis and lack of effective tools for investing into the national economic development. The authors assert that a country's position in the investment ranking is a sort of a ‘business card’ for the investor who is looking for new capital investment opportunities. Currently, from this perspective, Ukraine's chances to attract foreign investment seem quite miserable. However, the findings verify that in the context of modern globalization, to spur foreign capital attraction into Ukraine, creating a favourable investment climate is paramount. The study has identified factors that affect the process of shaping the investment climate, among which the most important are a group of economic, political and geographical factors. According to the research results, a proactive government strategy and a comprehensive approach to resolving the current challenges related to investment activities at the micro- and macrolevels will contribute to realizing Ukraine’s investment potential with maximum efficiency that will lay a solid background for sustainable economic development in the future.

In Lviv region, the development of the recreational sphere is a strategic landmark. Natural recreational resources of Lviv region and the largest in Ukraine in number, diversity and degree of preservation of historical and cultural resources have led to significant development of the industry. However, the territory of the region is characterized by varying degrees of development of recreational resources and development of recreational potential. The level and intensity of the current use of the potential of recreational resources of Stryi district are estimated. Due to the favorable geographical location, favorable climatic resources, a significant number and diversity of historical and cultural recreational resources, Stryi district has significant potential for the development of recreation. One of the main components of therapeutic recreation is the availability of natural therapeutic recreational resources – mineral waters and therapeutic mud – in the area. Morshyn has the largest number of mineral water sources, which are characterized by high sulfate content. 21 objects of the nature reserve fund have been created on the territory of the district, which has a high value for the organization of recreational activities and allows to consider them as the most important component of natural recreational resources. The potential of recreational resources of Stryi district is determined, which is 0.46 and corresponds to the average attractive level. Separate recreation centers have been formed within the district. This is, first of all, the city of Stryi, which has a significant number of historical and cultural resources, the city of Morshyn – as a center of medical and recreational recreation. The proximity to these cities of protected areas increases their recreational potential. Threats to further recreational use of nature are a significant anthropogenic load on the environment, irrational use of natural recreational resources and low investment activity in the development of the industry. Priorities for the development of recreational activities are the identification and use of new types of recreation, unique features of individual territories, popularization of their historical and ethnographic features, increasing the share of objects of will, in particular national importance.

The article assesses the scale of foreign direct investment of Chinese companies in foreign markets, including Russia. It is established that the strategy of "going abroad" at the moment has impressive results, and China's investment activity will only increase, even despite the opposition from foreign countries and the presence of problems with the support of potential foreign investors in China itself. A special role in the implementation of this strategy should play a systematic support for exports, which is an important component of China's foreign economic policy

Territorial self-government is an independent entity that has a certain scope of freedom in deciding on the path of development of the subordinate area, common property, and implementation of public tasks. The aim of the study is to assess the intra-regional diagnosis of the level of the poviat’s financial situation relative to the development potential. The data used to conduct the study refer to the years of 2009 and 2016; they come from the Local Data Bank and cover 101 poviats of Eastern Poland. The poviat can carry out its tasks when it is equipped with stable and efficient sources of income. The level and structure of budget revenues determine investment activity. The socio-economic space of the poviat’s activity is a multi-element system. It achieves different levels of development depending on the structure, equipment elements, as well as the quality and complexity of the links between them. The ability of a poviat to operate can be seen as a set of factors that are mutually related to each other. These factors include: technical infrastructure, knowledge, innovation, regional product, eco-development, geographical location, finances. These factors depend on the potential inherent in the region, activity in the sphere of planning and implementation of regional policy by regional self-government authorities, the state’s economic policy, and the standards of structural policy and EU cohesion policy. These factors are not unchangeable over time; therefore, they should be subjected to continuous and ongoing analysis. The synthetic measure of the financial situation according to the average value of the 2007–2016 years was in the range from 0.24 to 0.49. Poviats with a higher rate of the synthetic financial situation are better in terms of the measure of development. The level of the indicator is influenced by: the economic character of the entity and the function of the area, economic potential, financial situation, quality of the natural environment and infrastructure. The management of financial resources is of special importance in the functioning of poviats. They affect the economic situation of the local government, the conditions for the implementation of tasks. Financial resources are the basis for the operation of individuals and a condition for the implementation of the tasks imposed on them, they determine development and are an expression of the potential for economic development. The situation of the surveyed units varied. The ranking of cities in the ranking did not change substantially in the subsequent years. It was confirmed that financial resources are the basis for the operation of individuals and a condition for carrying out the tasks imposed on them, determine development, and reflect the potential for economic development.
