The author analyzed scientific literature describing the essence of investment attractiveness and its structure. The paper introduces a system of indicators of investment attractiveness, which includes five groups of indicators that characterize the investment potential of the area. The system is based on scientific publications and system of indicators of investment attractiveness developed by the Expert-RA rating agency. The paper also includes an analysis of the dynamics of the indicators in 2008-2017 and recommendations on how to increase the investment attractiveness of the Kemerovo Region.
