RESEARCH ON IDEOLOGICAL AND POLITICAL CONSTRUCTION OF FUTURES INVESTMENT COURSE IN HYBRID TEACHING MODE

This paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of online teaching, combines the theoretical knowledge of futures investment course with the unique characteristics of actual combat experience, and puts forward the idea of implementing hybrid teaching mode in futures investment course. Practical teaching is close to real investment and will encounter various risk challenges, so it is imperative to carry out course thinking and politics in futures investment. This paper focuses on how to integrate the course thought and politics into the mixed teaching mode in the teaching of futures investment. Finally, the expected results of this teaching method are summarized.

THE CONCEPT OF FACTORS THAT DETERMINE THE INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE REGION

The different characteristics that describe individual regions lead to significant differences in the ability to raise capital in the form of investment in the regional structure. This is largely determined by factors that are taken into account in the process of localization of investment by potential investors (also from abroad), more broadly identified with localization factors or synthesized using the index of investment attractiveness. It was substantiated that investors ’decisions are influenced by a number of subjective factors that are quite difficult to measure, and they express an individual system of preferences, partly determined by the investor’s knowledge, including the image of the region. It was proposed during the analysis of investment attractiveness of the region to determine the real investment attractiveness, which should be interpreted from the standpoint of “popularity” of investing in a particular sphere. Since the region is able to absorb financial and physical capital in the form of investment, the definition by analyzing the value of investment in enterprises or foreign direct investment allowed to identify the disadvantage of this approach as an opportunity to analyze attractiveness based on ex post investment in contrast to the ex ante approach. It also established that the real investment attractiveness can be assessed on the basis of past investments and thus select the region that attracted the most of them, and relatively symptomatic variables can be indicated, the increase of which will indicate increasing attractiveness. It was proposed to divide location factors into “hard” and “soft” by the nature of the impact, which correspondently will allow identifying directly with the cost of doing business and income and – the subjective feelings of investors and their internal value system.

The Rise of Services and Balanced Growth in Theory and Data

We investigate the effect of structural transformation on the process of economic growth. Using a two-sector growth model we show that, in addition to Baumol’s cost disease, structural transformation from goods to services generates other predictions that are in line with cross-country growth facts: an increase in the real investment rate, a decline in the real interest rate and the marginal product of capital, and an acceleration of investment-specific technological change as the share of services increases. The model calibrated to US data can account for the elasticity of real investment rates to the share of services measured in cross-country data. (JEL E22, E23, E43, L16, O33, O41, O47)
