Abstract

The article examines the inflow of Еuropean investment to Kaluga region, one of the most successful in

Central Federal District of Russia. The authors identify the specifics of the regional location of European

direct investment (FDI) in Russia before and after imposition of Western sanctions in mid-2014 using the

existing theories of consistent pattern and different factors influencing this distribution. One of the most

important factor consist in that the European Union represents an integration association where each country

has its national interests and priorities and particular business model. This explains the differences between

EU members in regional and branches preferences in investing in Russia. The article analyses investment

attractiveness and advantages of Kaluga region which worked out an effective Investment Strategy 2013-

2020 based on “soft” drivers and cluster model of economy. Special investment product of the region are

productive sites (‘brownfield” and “greenfield”) set up in industrial parks and special economic zones. The

main cornerstones of the strategy are successful activities of local government and favorable conditions

for European investors. The economic crisis and sanction against Russia has not affected seriously the

participation of major European investors due to successful and clever policy of region authorities. No one

abandoned their project plans. Authors pay special attention to the advantages of Kaluga region cluster

model for European investors and their concentration in manufacturing industries, including high-tech and

innovative production. The branches’ structure of European investment reflects cluster orientation of region`s

economy. Western Europe remains the top investor in the region. The largest number of FDI projects is

implemented by German companies.
