Assessment of investment demand with regard to regional socioeconomic development

The authors of the present paper consider development of perception and estimation of the economic category “investment demand†of a region from the standpoint of its significance in reference to regional policy-making and investment process management in a region. In order to specify regional policy priorities, a model of a finance-investment act is suggested by the authors; the given act specifies assessment criteria of investment requirements by a region, and actualizes regional policy regarding activation of investment processes in the region.
