LEGAL FORMS OF ATTRACTING AND PROMOTING INVESTMENT

Abstract

The article deals with new legal forms of attracting private investment to the nation’s economy carried out by the state — special investment contracts and agreements on attracting and promoting investment. The author concludes that these agreements are organizational ones, and they are aimed at organizing the implementation of investment projects with the support of the state. The assignment of a special investment contract to a civil law contract is denied. The article analyzes the grounds for extending civil legislation to an agreement on the protection and promotion of capital investment. Investment protection and promotion agreement is characterized as multilateral. Each of the public legal entities is an independent party providing the investor with support measures provided for by legislation and municipal legal acts. The article shows the difference between the investor and the investor-organizer of the investment project. An investor-organizer is only a legal entity, but a Russian legal entity. The advantages of a project company acting as an organizer of the implementation of an investment project are shown.
