Abstract

Investment management is one of the key challenges for policy makers. In the paper we present the findings confirming the hypothesis that for a more dynamic economic growth, apart from a mere increase in the investment rate, it is much more important to invest in the right things, with desired effect. In order to recognize new potentials for growth and development in addition to explicit calculation of the impact of investments on the GDP real growth rate of Serbia and European countries, we provide an exhaustive overview of the trends in the efficiency coefficient of investment in the key sectors and areas of Serbia's economy from 2006 to the present. While doing so, we also show that the investment rate can be sustainably raised to the desired level, firstly, with the expansion of dwelling construction.
