Abstract: The object of studies of the author concerns investment processes at the level of constituent subjects of the Russian Federation. The object includes indicator criteria for innovative modernization in the regions. It is obvious that investment resources guarantee modern equipment, electronic information system and high quality personnel for the enterprises. These enterprises play key role in the innovative modernization of economics in the region. The main branch of the strategic plan in the state should include the structural modernization nucleus for the high technology spheres. That is why there is need to develop methods, allowing to correlate perspective criteria of social and economic development of the regions, serving as indicators for the innovation modernization in the constituent subjects of the Russian Federation. In order to optimize the structure of the said indicators and to substantiate the direction of innovative investment program of social and economic regional development the authors offer to use the Pareto law. The Pareto analysis allows to range certain spheres and matters depending on tehir importance and calls for revealing and abolishing of the causes of hte most problems (inconsistencies). The use of group of branch indexes characterising the perspectives of functioning may be applied to certain sub-types or groups of goods (services), which may be of interest from the standpoing of viability of investments, as well as to types of economic activities within the state or a certain region. In the use of Pareto law and ABC-analysis when forming an optimum scheme for the investment distrtibution for the innovative modernization of regional economics it seems viable to suppose that types of economic activity related to the production of other non-metallic mineral product, machines and equipment are rather valuable on one hand, but on the other hand they cause the most problems. As it may be seen from the Pareto map formed within the program complex Statistica 6.1, the dominant types of processing industry of the region includes foodstuffs production, electric equipment production, machinery and equipment production, and production of non-metallic mineral products. That is why it is necessary to define optimization in these economic sectors. The authors then try to find out whether such optimization is necessary in the Vladimir region of Russia. Considering the large amount of inefficient capacities, there is need for the rapid growth of investments in the modernization of the production apparatus. In order to provide reaction analysis for the types of economic activity according to the list for the changes in the dynamics of the basic amount of economic markers, the authors offer to use correlations of the growth tempos, which may be presented as development indexes and evaluated according to the base index calculation formula.
