Now in Russia, investment activity of mining enterprises, due to the lack of reliable sources of financial resources, is usually reduced to solving production and financial problems, as well as to solving environmental issues and problems of product sales. Financing of social programs of mining enterprises is based on the residual principle. The conditions for investment growth in a reunified Germany at the beginning of the new century are generally pretty good, the country's share in world markets has increased, as evidenced by the positive development of exports and the service sector. This year and next year, we can expect a real increase in the production of goods and services. Progress is especially evident in the creation of efficient infrastructure - never before in Europe has an infrastructure changed so much and in such a short time. Behind these macroeconomic figures stand an orderly legal system and efficient state and municipal administration as well as a forward-looking industrial restructuring. Germany is interested in a strategic partnership with Russia, because Russia plays a large role in the stability and security of the European continent. Russia is also a field for new investments for Germany. In this way, Germany can contribute to the modernization of Russia. To become part of global economic processes and once again become a strong industrial power, Russia needs a thorough overhaul of many industries.
