Abstract
The economic crisis in Ukraine requires the government to change its approach in the management of
government expenditures. The aim of this article is to explain the optimal amount of government investment
needed in the economy of Ukraine and determine the economic sectors where government investments will be
the most effective. It was calculated that to achieve stable growth of GDP the ratio of budgetary investments
and business investment should be in these proportions: 35% should be from budgetary investments; 65% from
investments from the business sector. Priority economic sectors needing government investment are agriculture
and the processing industry. These will help to increase the export of finished products and reduce raw material
exports in the future. GDP growth will contribute to the payment of foreign debt obligations, and reduce the
budget deficit.
