Department for the analysis of debt instruments and derivatives of

economics system in the format Russia-EU taking into account the
experience gained in the course of the recent recession”. Having
analyzed the data about capital flows inside Europe and direct
investments from the EU states into Russian economy, P. Kadysh made
a conclusion that Russia should concentrate on the attraction of
investments from central states of Euro zone (Germany, France).
Stable European economies in their turn should invest more in

country is able to secure good capital return. This report
