Evaluation of the applicability of public!private partnership in implementation of investment activities in Russia

In the conditions of unstable economic situation, public-private partnership can become a stimulus for investment activity. Implementation of public-private partnership in Russia can be carried out in several forms: concession agreement, agreement on public-private and municipal-private partnership. The state actively promotes the development of these forms of interaction, which can become the basis for the development of investment activity in the conditions of budget deficit, active capital outflow from Russia and constant tightening of sanctions restrictions. In addition to these forms, there are forms of contractual relations with certain characteristics of public-private partnership (quasi-PPP). For a private investor, these forms of interaction in the implementation of joint projects with the state are attractive, meanwhile, they are not ready to invest in high-risk innovative projects and projects with a long payback period. The aim of the study is to analyze the impact of various forms of public-private partnership on the investment activity of Russia. The author used statistical, scientometric and qualitative methods of analysis. In the analysis of statistical and analytical information the methods of absolute, relative and average values, retrospective analysis, grouping method, and content analysis were used.
