Abstract. The article analyzes the theory and practice of strategic planning, since increasing the welfare of the region is directly dependent on investments in the means of production, infrastructure development and technological development, and investments are needed for these purposes. The effectiveness of the implementation of the regional development strategy is provided by the comprehensiveness of the measures that form the investment environment, which can provide a certain socio-economic effect for the region, while increasing its competitiveness. With this aim, an important methodological task of choosing methods and tools for analyzing and evaluating the use of investment resources is determined. An assessment of strategic planning in the region was made on the example of the Republic of Crimea (hereinafter referred to as the region) on the formation of an attractive investment climate. Positive and negative factors of development of investment activity for the formation of a favorable investment climate have been identified. Investment indicators are used to more fully substantiate and comprehensively characterize the state of regional investments. All indicators correspond to a consistent system, determine the interconnectedness and interdependence of the development of investment activities. An assessment of investment activity in the region was carried out using an indicative method for estimating values by groups of indicators, followed by a comparison of the actual values of the indicators to assess the effectiveness of investment activities in the region. The dynamics of integral indicators in investment activity, investment resources are determined; investments in fixed capital are also analyzed for three groups of indicators: investment climate, investment resource potential, investment efficiency of the resources used. From the point of view of practical applications, the indicative assessment method helps to identify weak points in the formation of a favorable investment climate and eliminate the imbalances. A functioning system of analysis with the use of a project management system makes it possible to shorten the time needed for the approval of investment projects, to increase the efficiency of resource and time use.

Key words: region, offensive globalization, investments, strategic planning, indicative method, investment climate, reflection of economic thought, free economic zone, integral indicators.
