Telephone hotline for investors is created in Bashkiria

Among subjects of Volga Federal District Bashkortostan takes the third place on volume of investments after Tatarstan and the Nizhniy Novgorod Region. And on volume of investments per capita the republic is on the seventh place (19962 roubles). According to the Ministry of Economic Development RB this year the volume of investments into the fixed capital should make more than 230 billion roubles.

“For this purpose it is important to increase volumes,” the President of Republic Rustem Khamitov said at the Social Council session on improvement of investment climate held on October 10. “The situation is worse with foreign investors. The main reason is the global economic crisis. But there are drawbacks from our part too. In particular, it concerns insufficient positioning of our republic. I suggest that the Ministry of Economics and Chamber of Commerce and Industry should clear up the given issue.”

The head of the republic underlined that in the region active work is spent concerning privileges granting to investors. However, locally authorities interact with investors not in their best way. Heads of municipalities and cities need assistants, real professionals. Now this work will be performed by special investment representatives.

The hotline number: +73472505707.

We should make a lot for Ufa accomplishment.
