In the research a comprehensive analysis of capital investment dynamics and structure in the Russian Federation has been carried out, and the investment to GDP ratio. International comparisons are cited for the most of indicators. 

The models of GDP forecast (the investment multiplier model and VAR model) developed by the authors, make it possible to test a hypothesis that accelerated growth of capital investment (at the level of officially forecast rate of growth) can give rise to GDP,  due to the multiplier effect, enabling Russian GDP growth rate to exceed  worldwide average,  and Russian economy to take the 5th place in the world by GDP value, by  2024.
