Investment Process

The article analyzes the development of the investment process in human capital in Ukraine. The approaches to the statistical analysis of investment in human capital in the country are considered in the article. Ukraine has low indicators of human capital development, including demographic characteristics and living standards indicators. The development of human capital is an actual task of economic development policy of the state. Therefore, the issue of statistical analysis and determination of prospects for the development of investment in human capital in Ukraine requires additional research. During the last years the position of Ukraine according to the international human development index is improving constantly. Despite the fact that the country has satisfied levels of education and life expectancy components of the index, but low values of gross national product per capita negatively influence on the growth of economic development of the country. Besides, the country’s population is steadily declining and is accompanied by rising mortality rates and declining in birth rates as well as the migration of working-age population. The approaches to determining the amount of investment in human capital, in particular in health care, education, physical development, social protection and social security have been also analyzed. It is established that investing in human capital development is not reflected in the growth of living standards and increase in demographic indicators in the country. The tendencies and prospects of human capital development in Ukraine are studied. The results of the study allow not only to assess the values and dynamics of investment in human capital, but also to identify conditions that constrain their growth, and to suggest directions for further ways to expand them.

The Impact

Studies of factors of sustainable economic development in modern conditions are highly relevant for Russia due to the constant increase and tightening of sanctions restrictions. They have a negative impact on the introduction of innovative developments and economic growth, and reduce the competitiveness of Russian enterprises and their products on world markets. Human capital can become one of the key factors for countering sanctions restrictions, improving the efficiency of economic development and gaining additional competitive advantages for domestic enterprises and the economy as a whole. Assessing the impact of human capital on the sustainable development of the economy is difficult, since it is one of the specific forms of capital. When making appropriate measurements, economic scientists rely on a number of developed theoretical methods and practical tools that support them, which allow us to obtain fairly accurate values of the human capital development index (HDI) based on statistical data. First of all, this is the current UN methodology for calculating the HDI indicator, as well as modern software systems OriginPro-8.6 and Eviews-10.0, which have sufficiently advanced functionality for performing calculations. Russia today has all the necessary prerequisites and opportunities for progressive social and economic development. However, the formation of econometric models will help to timely determine the current and forecast values of the level of human capital development for individual enterprises, industries, and the country’s economy as a whole. This paper shows the practical application of the econometric tools of all the above approaches to obtain the calculated values of the HDI indicator for different time periods and different scenarios for the development of the Russian economy. The results obtained confirmed the high practical significance of the tools used and the acceptable accuracy of the calculations. However, the current and forecast values of the level of human capital development alone will not be able to ensure the effective development of the Russian economy. On the contrary, the effective use of human capital in the implementation of import substitution strategies and national projects will allow our country to become one of the world’s leading economic development countries.

It is generally recognized that labor activity is the main prerequisite that determines the material and spiritual wealth of man and society as a whole. Therefore, human resources at the present stage is one of the main components of the production potential of management in Ukraine, increasing the efficiency of use and reproduction of which are especially relevant. On the level of efficiency of human resources depends the level of welfare of the population, the development of productive forces, the scale of material production, etc. The development of intellectual productive forces and the strengthening of the influence of innovation and information factors contributes to the formation of a new socio-economic role of man in the modern economy and requires appropriate research. The article reveals the theoretical issues of trends in human capital development, a thorough analysis of the current state of human capital development and its importance in the modern economy. Based on the generalization of different views of scientists, the main stages of human capital formation in the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy are identified and characterized. The problems of human capital use have been studied and proposals for its improvement have been worked out. It is revealed that the process of reproduction of human capital in agricultural enterprises and its effective use in the conditions of market transformations should be based on the principles of active policy aimed at reviving the economic situation in agriculture; scientific substantiation; development of measures in order to increase jobs and increase the labor needs of agricultural enterprises; improvement of the system of remuneration, social protection of agricultural workers; formation of the mechanism of social partnership, etc.

The article shows that the activities of the State in the field of social support and social protection are aimed at addressing the needs of the lower levels of Maslow’s pyramid of motivation: physiological needs, the needs of a safe existence. Currently, we are fighting poverty, while we need to create conditions for the formation of an active life position of citizens, which is aimed at the development of the human capital of the country, on the quality of which the successes of modern society depend. This task is achieved by forming motivations of the highest levels of the pyramid: the need for social contacts, self-affirmation and self-expression. The development of the Concept and Program for Human Capital Development would allow to coordinate and link all activities of a socio-economic nature, both already being implemented in the country and formulated in the Address of the President to the Federal Assembly on January 15, 2020.

<p>Methodologically this research is based on the approach of many social scientists who argue that there is a bidirectional link: one runs from human capital development to economic growth and overall human development, when human capital helps increase national income and society development; the other runs from economic growth to human capital development, as the resources from national income are allocated to activities contributing to human capital development. The study aims to empirically verify the existence of this interaction by carrying out a correlation analysis of the human capital development level among 120 countries, assessed by the Human Capital Index, and the world's national economic development level, as demonstrated by the Global Competitiveness Index, as well as the level of development of the world's nations (societies) as demonstrated by the Human Development Index.</p>The result of the analysis empirically demonstrated a strong link between the human capital development with the country's economic (r = +0.944, p = 0.000) and national development (r = +0.882, p = 0.000) in total by all countries. Nevertheless, carrying out the correlation analysis by groups of countries, which are divided according to the calculation methodology of the Global Competitiveness Index, depending on their stage of economic development, the relationship between human capital development and nation’s development is becoming weaker in some groups of countries, with the remaining strong correlation between the development of human capital and the economic development of a state in all groups of countries. This means that only highly developed human capital can contribute to the country's economic development, and vice versa, national economic performance increases human capital development in the framework of effective development policy. On the other hand, not always a close interaction between nation’s development and human capital development can be faced, since a highly developed human capital means the quality of the developed human capital
