Importance Considering new challenges and threats to economic security of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to change the model for economic development of the national economy and switch from export and resource focus to the new industrial economy. New industrial development of the Russian economy strongly depends on capital investment. Objectives The research assesses trends and structure of capital investment in the Russian economy. Methods The research employs a systems approach, scientific abstraction, deduction and induction, analysis and synthesis, thus providing a comprehensive interpretation of economic indicators and identifying the main economic development trends. Results We analyzed trends in capital investment as seen in Russia. Whereas the capital accumulation rate is the most crucial indicator for feasibility of any investment process, the article presents a comparative analysis of the indicator in Russia and the EU. It overviews the sectoral structure of capital investment, investment per type of fixed assets, and sources of investment finance in the Russian economy. Conclusions and Relevance The current level of capital investment, sectoral structure of investment allocation fail to ensure the new industrial course of the Russian economy. The new industrial development requires more capital investment, and changes in their sectoral structure.
