Kobushko I. Ecological and economic evaluation of the regional investment potential reproduction

Object of investigation: investment regional potential in terms of ecologic restriction. Goal of investigation: to elaborate scientific and methodic approaches to the ecological and economic evaluation of the investment regional potential reproduction. Methods of investigation and instruments: system-structural analysis; factorial analysis; comparative analysis; abstract-logical analysis; statistical analysis; computational and analytical method; economic and mathematical modeling. Theoretical and practical results: the investigation results in scientific and methodic approaches to the ecological and economic evaluation of the investment regional potential reproduction and in determination of the ecologically conditional investment loss. Novelty: there was found the structural and logical essence of the term "ecologically conditional investment loss", under which one understands actual or possible loss of investment regional potential during the phases of formation, distribution and using, as result of environmental pollution and natural recourses exhaustion; there was improved scientific and methodic approach to the ecological and economic evaluation of the investment regional potential reproduction, which as opposed current ones, takes into account the size of ecologically conditional loss during the phase of investment potential reproduction; there was also improved scientific and methodic approach to the evaluation of ecologically conditional loss, that as opposed to current ones, is based on economic losses during the phases of investment potential reproduction, due to environmental pollution and regional natural resources exhaustion; there was accomplished scientific and methodic approach to the organizational and economic mechanism to control the investment potential reproduction of the region in terms of ecological restriction, that as opposed to the current ones foresees economic instruments differentiation during the phases of reproduction depending on the state of environment in the region. Degree of implementation: the main scientific and methodic points and scientific and practical results of the ecological and economic evaluation concerning regional investment potential have been implemented into practical activities of the main economics administration at Sumy regional state administration and into the educational process at Sumy State University. Area of usage: environmental economics, environmental protection, regional economics, investment management.
