Анотація

Abstract. Regional integration factions (blocks, agreements) have become the major forming factors for the world economy development for the last decades. Since the processes of regionalization are not only intensified in the modern world practice, but also acquire new qualitative characteristics, the role and meaning of the regional component in the global integration process and its influence on the creation of a unitary global space require further research. The study of investment strategies of the countries within the framework of regional trade agreements is particularly topical, since international investment is a key source of economic growth. Regional trade agreements are used by countries as a tool for better integration of their economies, especially on those issues that are not resolved at the multilateral level, including investment. The unified rules of international investment have not yet been formed within the framework of the WTO, so the country’s investment regime is declared in RTA. The countries create an attractive investment climate and promote foreign direct investment in the region. This topic is very relevant, since the problems of regionalism are an important and, at the same time, the least explored area of economics. The prospects for foreign direct investment in regional trade agreements are still an object of debate among professionals who study contemporary international relations, state leaders, and political figures. Key words: strategy of development, foreign direct investment, the investment climate, multinational corporations, regional trade agreements.
