Abstract

The report contains new results of the joint research project of the Centre for Integration Studies of EDB and the Institute of World Economy and International Relations of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It is aimed at the maintenance and development of the monitoring database of mutual direct investment in the CIS countries and Georgia. A general characteristic of mutual investments in the CIS at the end of 2012 is provided. For the first time inter-regional contrasts are analyzed with a breakdown by mutual direct investment in three countries — Russia, Kazakhstan and Ukraine. The results of monitoring mutual investments in the CIS countries and Georgia are reviewed, which characterize investment dynamics and structure. In the light of the economic crisis in Cyprus, special attention is given to the phenomenon of the island as a terminal base for many post-Soviet multinational corporations. The impact of close integration on mutual direct investment in the emerging Eurasian Economic Union is considered separately. Methodological problems and prospects of the project are highlighted.
