The Okrug Governor’s press-service informs:
On September 20 in Sochi Governor of Ugra Alexander
Filipenko made a report at the conference "Investment projects –
locomotives for the development of regional economies", held in the
frames of the VII Investment Forum "Sochi-2008".
It
was chaired by the Minister of the RF Regional Development Dmitri
Kozak. One of the key topics of the conference was the public and
private partnerships as a tool of the effective implementation of
investment projects in Russia. Governor said that in Ugra the
institute of public and private was formed with good tempos. But many
issues remain unsolved on the federal level what slows down the
development of such institutes.
Speaking about the implementation of the mega-project "Urals
Industrial – Urals Polar" Alexander Filipenko emphasized that it was
necessary to apply the formula of making decisions about such
large-scale projects on the federal level.
Ugra plays an important role in social and economic development of the
country. According to the results of 2007 the Gross Regional Product
amounted to 1,8 trillion rubles and the investments into the fixed
capital exceeded 380 billion rubles what made it possible for Ugra to
rank the second regarding the investment attraction of Russian
regions and share the second place with Saint Petersburg. Governor
said that this year the investment would be attracted in the amount of
400 billion rubles (10 % plus). According to the experts’ opinion the
investment capacity of the regional market is covered by 60-65 %.
That’s why there is a list of priority investment projects and some of
them are being implemented in the region.
Alexander Filipenko invited the participants of the discussion to
attend the V International Investment Forum "Ugra-2008" to be held in
Khanty-Mansiysk on October 15-17 and will be devoted to regional
aspects of investment policy. Dmitri Kozak said that the
Khanty-Mansiysk Forum had become famous and occupied its own place
among international economic events and attracted representatives of
Russian and foreign capital.
After the conference Alexander Filipenko and Deputy Chairman of Ugra
Government for Investments and Innovations Kirill Morozov participated
in the meeting of the Investment Commission where the issues were
discussed about allocating finances for the implementation of some
projects and the technical passport of the mega-project "Ural
Industrial – Ural Polar" was approved. "Today we passed a necessary
stage to be prepared for solving the main problem – making a decision
about allocating finances from the investment fund for construction
works in the project frames. I am convinced that it will happen and
such projects are important and necessary for Russia and regions and
finances for these goals are foreseen in the investment fund", - said
Alexander Filipenko.
