The Tyumen region belongs to the number of the most successfully developing regions of Russia and disposes herewith of considerable social-economic and scientific research potential… …The industrial production index was one of the highest among the regions of the Ural Federal District and exceeded significantly the allover Russian rate … …The region is situated advantageously in strategic point of view and a connecting link between the eastern and the western territories of the country, the oil and gas North and industrial Ural. The Transsiberian main line and highways of federal value pass through its territory. There is an international airport and large Tyumen and Tobolsk river ports. Supply of resources, required for the development of oil and gas complex in the north of the region, is carried out, mostly, through the south of the region … … Lately substantial growth of goods and services’ production has been achieved in the majority of branches of the regional economics. In 2005, in comparison with the year 2000, the gross regional product (in correlated prices) increased of 45%, the industrial production volume - by 1,5 times, whereas fixed capital stock investments increased by 2,6 times, and agricultural gross output – by 1,3 times. Attraction of investments to the regional economics represents one of the regional authorities’ major activities … …In the region foundations of legal, infrastructure and informational base to attract investments were created; a guarantee mechanism was worked out to protect investors’ rights. The regional law “About the state support and investment activity in the Tyumen region” was adopted … …The Government is ready to assist in granting land lots and other real estate items, which are in the ownership of the region. I would like to stress the idea, that in this situation Russian and foreign investors are in equal conditions. Development of processing industries is considered a priority in the regional economic policy. Nowadays we pay much attention to the development of tourist business using both historical- cultural memorials and a variety of natural-climatic conditions of the territory. The Government of the Tyumen region is open to cooperation with prospective investors, and I am sure, that this will be profitable to our partners and us; stimulate the market filling with qualitative commodities and services and the creation of new working vacancies.
