25 October 2021, Monday

The Ministry of Economic Development presented the first part of the set of investment rules to the specialized commission of the State Council. This is one of the six instruments of the regional investment standard, which is designed to attract business to the subjects of the Russian Federation. The summary indicates the optimal way for the investor to connect to the infrastructure.

Earlier, First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov instructed federal executive authorities to study the experience of the regions, compare the required amount of documents and the timing of connection to the infrastructure. Updated algorithms for connecting to water and electricity, obtaining land plots, building permits and commissioning were told by representatives of the Ministry of Energy, the Ministry of Construction and Rosreestr. Later, relevant departments will present algorithms for connecting to gas, roads, and heat.

"Ministries with pilot regions have established optimal terms for connecting the investor to the infrastructure. A formalized set of algorithms will become more than just a roadmap for investors. Many regions will have to change the management system in order to meet the standards of the set of investment rules," stressed Andrey Belousov and also urged the pilot regions not to be late with the introduction of elements of the regional investment standard.

Also at the State Council commission, First Deputy Minister of Economic Development Andrey Ivanov presented recommendations on the creation of an investment map. According to him, it will allow linking future projects to a specific territory. Regions will make a map based on available services like Yandex or 2GIS. It will open in the browser. Topographic data, benefits, information about infrastructure, investment projects being implemented will be put on the map. In the future, preferential regimes will appear there (territories of advanced socio-economic development, special economic zones and others).

"The methodological recommendations are ready, they have been worked out with the pilot regions. By December, the subjects will approve investment declarations, update development agencies and form investment committees. By the end of the year, pilots should implement a code and an investment card," said Andrey Ivanov.

In the near future, the Ministry of Economic Development will prepare a detailed schedule for the creation of investment maps.

Earlier, Tatarstan, along with 11 subjects of the country, became a pilot region, where the introduction of a regional investment standard was launched. The methodological recommendations of the Ministry of Economic Development will allow the subjects to start forming investment declarations, committees and development agencies.
