Abstract: In May 2015, investments in capital assets amounted to 92.4%, while in January–May 2015, to 95.2% as compared to respective indices of 2014. A drop in investments which continues for six quarters running has been determined by a decline of business activities since H2 2012 and made worse by the macroeconomic situation early in 2015 (due to that the share of borrowed funds in the pattern of sources of funding of investments kept decreasing), complicated budget situation in regions and reduction of domestic solvent demand (which situation results in a drop in investments in building, trade and the sphere of paid services). Instability of investment demand in the primary sector of the manufacturing industry which had a positive eff ect on the dynamics of the domestic production in Q1 2015 is of a particular concern. At the same time, the investment situation in the engineering sector demonstrates a certain potential of import substitution.
