Purpose. The aim of the article is theoretical substantiation of the essence of investment attractiveness, analysis of trends and identification of opportunities for further development of agro-industrial enterprises. Methodology of research. General and special methods are used during the research, in particular: monographic and systematic analysis – to substantiate the essence of investment attractiveness and to determine the possibilities of further development of agro-industrial enterprises; abstract and logical and graphic – in forming the conceptual bases for investing in the development of enterprises. Findings. The essence of investing in the development of enterprises as a system of actions to attract real and potential internal and external investment resources, sources, levers and measures, taking into account the institutional and factor influence on the given course of investment processes in the short, medium and long term, is determined on the basis of generalization of scientific approaches which leads to qualitative, quantitative and structural changes in the production and economic activity of agro-industrial enterprises on an innovative basis, achieving a high result in the case of coordination and consolidation of efforts of business structures and bodies of state power and local self-government, solving problems and prioritizing investments by the nature of strategic orientation. The necessity of providing investment development of enterprises is considered taking into account the influence of peculiarities of investing material, intangible and bioactive assets on an innovative basis, which determine the scientific theoretical and methodological approaches and applied aspects, strategic importance of the basic and life-supporting branch of the national economy. The rating positions of the investment attractiveness of Ukraine in the international studies of the economic development of the countries are revealed as rather weak and not the best. However, at the same time, it is revealed that Ukraine has significant investment and human potential, the effective use of which may be a prerequisite for gradual enhancement of the country's international competitiveness in world rankings. We believe that global international rankings should be seen as additional tools for making investment decision. It is determined that at present the most pressing problem for foreign investors remains the protection of their rights and the ability (easiness) of doing business. Therefore, the efforts of the state should be directed to solving problems in the commercial sphere and forming a favourable business environment, increasing investment in the agricultural sector, stabilizing sources and optimizing capital structures, ensuring efficient distribution of investments in the formation of assets of agricultural producers by their size. Originality. The definition of the essence of investing in the development of agro-industrial enterprises has been further developed; the scheme of conceptual bases for ensuring the investment attractiveness and opportunities for further development has been formed, taking into account the impact of the current global economic recession. Practical value. The results of the study can be used to expand the base, diversify sources and increase the volume of investment with the introduction of the land market, in the process of creating and commercializing innovations and activation of innovative development of agro-industrial enterprises, the main priorities of which should be the realization of internal production factors. Key words: investments, innovations, development, enterprise, attractiveness, commercialization, efficiency.

The article highlights the problems and prospects of human development, which is the basis for the long-term strategies of social and economic growth of different countries and regions at the present stage. Submitting strategies of this type provides an opportunity to focus on individual empowerment and to build a favorable environment for effective management decisions in the field of forming, maintaining, and restoring human potential. The analysis of the Vinnytsia region human potential dynamics in the regional system of social and economic development factors was carried out. Application of generalized assessment of the regional human development index components allowed the identification of the main trends that characterize the formation of human potential of the territory, including the reproduction of the population, social environment, comfort and quality of life, well-being, decent work, and education. The article emphasizes that despite some positive changes in the social and economic situation of the region and in assessing the parameters of its human development level relative to other regions of Ukraine, Vinnytsia region is now losing its human potential due to negative demographic situation and migration to other regions and countries. The main reason for such dynamics is proven to be related to the outdated structure of the region's economy, the predominance of the agricultural sector, the lack of progressive transformations in the development of high-tech fields of the economy. An important factor is the low level of urbanization of the region, which leads to the spread of less attractive working conditions and less comfortable living conditions. The key factors that cause the growth of urbanization in the region have been identified, including the significant positive impact of the transport and social infrastructure expansion, the lack of which in rural areas leads to a decrease in the level and comfort of life. Without progressive structural changes in the economy and the resettlement system, the loss of human potential will continue.

The article analyzes the most important institutional and structural changes in the agriculture of Russia in 2006—2016. The research has shown that the policy of reducing state participation in agricultural enterprises, increasing the concentration of property and management in the hands of a smaller number of individuals, growing share of agricultural organizations and farmers in the production of agricultural products, as well as the state support of agricultural holdings have played a positive role in the development of production. Structural changes in land use and land ownership of agricultural organizations are taking place. An attempt has been made to evaluate these changes. As the research has revealed, structural changes that ensured the growth of production had some negative consequences: the expansion of the activities of agricultural holdings led not only to the reduction in agricultural employment, but also to the decline of the rural population; the owners and managers rather than workers have become the main beneficiaries of the growth of revenues and incomes in organizations and redistribution of value added.

The cluster analysis ofagricultural enterprises is made by region  Ukraine. The analysis is made by the agricultural sector and its subsectors: plant-growing and animal husbandry. Homogenous regional zones characterizing the performance  agricultural enterprises are identified. The clustering is made using SPPS software. In the problems involved in the cluster analysis Euclidean distance is used. The cluster analysis is used for constructing green maps illustrating the impact  agricultural activities at enterprises on the production output of the agricultural sector and its subsectors: plant-growing and animal husbandry. The constructed dendrogram was used fo r creating two clusters showing low and high performance of the plant-growing sector. The first cluster includes 17 regions  Ukraine have high performance along with low application  mineral fertilizers: Vinnytsya region, Dnipropetrovsk region, Donetsk region, Zhytomyr region, Zaporizhzhya region, Kyiv region, Kirovohrad region, Luhansk region, Mykolaiv region, Odesa region, Poltava region, Sumy region, Kharkiv region, Kherson region, Khmelnytsk region, Cherkasy region, andChernihiv region. The second cluster includes 7 regions with low plant-growing performance along with intensive application  mineral fertilizers: Volyn region, Transkarpaty region, Ivano- Frankivsk region, Lviv region, Rivne region, Ternopil region, Chernivtsi region. The characteristics of regional zones by agricultural production output, numbers  cattle and poultry, and agriculture performance give evidence that in view ofthe similarity in the conditions  their territories, they require similar measures aiming to improve business environment in the sector and mechanisms fo r the development  agroindustrial complex in Ukraine.

AbstractThe business environment in which a firm operates has an important impact on firm performance. This study examined the impact of credit constraint and power outages on the firm’s investment decision using World Bank Enterprise Survey (WBES) data collected from firms operating in 13 sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) countries. The study employed a two-part model and the Heckman selection model to estimate the impact of lack of access to finance and poor power supply on a firm’s decision to invest in self-generation. The result obtained suggest that there is a negative correlation between credit constraint and a firm’s decision to invest in self-generation. This indicates that credit constraint negatively affects a firm’s decision to invest in self-generation and firms that are credit constrained have less incentive to invest in self-generation compared to those that are not credit constrained. To test the robustness of the result obtained, alternative definitions of credit constraints were used. Results from alternative regressions using different definitions of credit constraints show that credit constraint affects a firm’s decision to invest in self-generation but not the volume of investment.
