The Ministry of Economic Development of Russia has put into operation the investment map of the Russian Federation. The service, designed specifically for Russian and foreign entrepreneurs, contains 5 modules from the regions of the country, including Bashkortostan. The areas presented included "Regional Analytics", "Business Environment", "Investment platforms", "Minerals", as well as "Regional support measures". The platform is based on data from investment maps of Russian regions, which were developed during the implementation of the regional investment standard under the leadership of First Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation Andrey Belousov.

The investment map of Russia will help to strengthen work with investments in the regions. For businesses, this is an opportunity to choose a plot of land for any project: from opening a cafe to building a large industrial plant. The map contains data on almost 14 thousand investment sites: their size, equipment, and available support measures, said Maxim Reshetnikov, Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation.

Earlier, Bashkortostan was marked at the federal level as the region that presented the largest number of investment sites available to potential investors. According to the Prime Minister of the Government of the Republic of Bashkortostan Andrey Nazarov, the investment map of Russia and the republic is constantly updated and supplemented with new data.

We are carrying out extensive and systematic work, which involves the regional Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry of Economic Development, the Development Corporation, republican executive authorities, resource supply organizations and local governments. To date, we have presented 1,455 objects on the investment map of Russia in the "Investment Sites" module. Also, thanks to this service, potential investors can get acquainted with the special economic zone "Alga", territories of advanced development, technology parks and other facilities where preferential regimes operate. In addition, you can find out about all the support measures that are in effect in the region on the investment card. Today we have 65 of them on the investment map," said Andrey Nazarov.

The section of Bashkortostan on the investment map of Russia is based on the investment map of the republic, which has been repeatedly noted at the federal level as one of the best such practices. As noted by the First Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of the Republic of Bashkortostan - Minister of Economic Development and Investment Policy of the Republic of Bashkortostan Rustam Muratov, the service contains all the necessary information about investment sites, infrastructure, transport and logistics centers and support measures. In 2023, the investment map of Bashkortostan was recognized as one of the best in the country. The analysis was carried out by the National Association of Investment Development Agencies (NAAIR) and presented a corresponding report at the organization's congress, which is held annually within the framework of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

The investment card of the Republic of Bashkortostan has been repeatedly noted as one of the best investment cards among Russian regions. In 2023, information about Bashkortostan was integrated into the investment map of Russia. This year, the republic will continue to work on filling the layers of the Russian investment card. We hope that with the help of this service, entrepreneurs and investors from different regions of the country will be interested in investing in our republic," said Rustam Muratov.

Nail Gabbasov, Director General of the Development Corporation of the Republic of Bashkortostan, noted that the investment map of Russia is an important tool in the implementation of an investment project.

Thanks to the federal investment card, users have the opportunity to explore the advantages of business localization in a particular region on a single platform. Together with colleagues from relevant departments, we are working systematically to ensure that potential investors always have access to up-to-date and specific information about each free investment site in Bashkortostan, Nail Gabbasov stressed.

Earlier it became known that in Bashkortostan, thanks to the regional investment standard, the investment and construction cycle has been reduced by 40%. In 2024, the indicators for the elements of the reginveststandard will be integrated into the indicators of the National Investment Rating, the results of which will be announced at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

For reference: In 2021, the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation developed a new investment standard. It is based on the best regional experience in attracting business and the practice of implementing the first iteration of the standard by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives. The task of the investment standard is to shorten the investor's path from the emergence of an idea to the implementation of capital investments. The five elements of the standard are designed to provide regions with basic tools for attracting business and eliminate typical barriers to an entrepreneur. The quality of the implementation of the investment standard is assessed by business associations at the federal level and locally. Regions that have confirmed the implementation of the standard are eligible to apply for an investment tax deduction grant. From 2023, compliance with the standard will be taken into account by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives when compiling a national rating of investment attractiveness of regions.
