Green investments’ programs as an element of industry’s international competitiveness (on example of construction industry)

Abstract

The definition of industry competitiveness was analyzed in the article. Authors insist on the fact that any industry's success does not depend only on inherited factors, but also on particular mechanisms which can enable constant effective application of these factors. In case of construction industry, the program of green investments is argued to be that specific international competitiveness' boosting mechanism. Thus, the principal program for green investments implementation in the regions of Ukraine is presented in order to increase international competitiveness of country construction industry. The main economic and social effects of ``green technologies{''} in building industry are critically analyzed by authors.
