Viktor Tolokonsky,
GOVERNOR OF THE NOVOSIBIRSK REGION


Investment inflow is the keystone of dynamic economic development.
The Administration of the Novosibirsk Region is deeply concerned with
promoting active investment in our industry and in industrial and social
infrastructure and with enhancing the trade and economic links of the Region.
Clearly, investment cannot come unless appropriate legal, economic and
infrastructure conditions are created. Investors and trade partners look for financial transparency, clear economic expectations, and relations unequivocally stipulated by laws. Therefore one of the priority tasks of the Regional Administration is to create an investment-friendly climate.
A modern legislative framework has been formulated and enacted to ensure
the state support for the realization of investment projects. State guarantees for
bank loans are offered to investors, and budget funding is allocated to finance
their interest payments. Most promising investment projects are granted regional tax privileges. The terms for licensing construction sites and obtaining approval for service lines plans have been shortened. Local authorities ensure business security. The political situation in the Novosibirsk Region is stable.
The Region’s economy has been displaying steady positive trends for the
last several years. Our financial, insurance, telecommunications and service
organizations are on the rise. The Novosibirsk Region holds one of the leading positions in Russia for its communications and telephony infrastructure. The Region’s bank sector has the largest assets in the Siberian Federal District. One of the most important factors of the investment development is our scientific and educational systems. The Region started to realize a large investment project of creating a technology park in the Novosibirsk scientific district, Akademgorodok.
The State Investment Development Agency aimed at organizing investment
activity was formed. It is engaged in resolving all the problems concerning raising and use of investments. Promising innovational industrial projects exist that are interesting for potential investors.
The Region has worked hard to attract potential customers and to establish
reliable partnerships with major customers in other regions and in foreign countries. Due to this, the foreign trade turnover raised noticeably, with exports steadily exceeding imports. We have implemented a number of joint projects together with the World Bank and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. A number of countries have consulates in Novosibirsk, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation has a permanent representative office here, a fact that contributes to the development of international contacts in the Region.
We invite foreign and Russian investors to mutually beneficial partnership.
