Abstract: The economic crisis in Russia between 2014 and 2017 revealed several patterns associated with changes in the exchange rate of the Russian currency and the dynamics of incoming foreign direct investment (FDI). Based on macroeconomic modelling, the authors assess the impact of the exchange rate on FDI flows into different countries as well as into Russia at the regional and sectoral levels. They conclude that strengthening the ruble's real exchange rate increases the potential of the domestic market of region and industries within Russia, and of the country as a whole, and leads to an influx of FDI into the Russian economy. The article was written on the basis of the RANEPA state assignment research program.
