In accordance with the enactment of the 5713 confederal budget, Chief Executive Ophelia has announced a series of investment packages aimed at boosting growth across Nadiya and help republics utilize it more effectively.

Officially called the "Steps for a smart future", the confederal sponsored investment package of a value of 20 billion rubles it's divided into three major axises to boost smart investment opportunities and ensuring a secure future for the next generations especially in the more poor republics like Lesnov and Vrosnok.

The first axis of the plan is "Sustainability and continued assistance", its main goal is to diversify the economies of the republics and income sources as to ensure a steady stream of cash going straight to the republics without relying on the Confederal Government to do the heavy lifting in terms of budget management. This effectively means that policies like careless spending and disrespect of the NCB's deficit guidelines will be heavily discourage and even punished if the government deems them as too risky.

The second axis is "Societal and demographic long term vision", this one solely addresses the slowly decreasing birthrates in Nadiya. Even tho the country has one of Terra's highest fertility rates in the developed world with women in Nadiya having on average 3,28 children in their lives, those rates are slowly falling down again. Historically, the confederal managed to raise fertility right up by expanding the number of kindergartens and expanding their childcare scheme that offers tax reliefs and even financial aid to new and old parents with couples by giving them public housing units that fit their plans for the establishement of a family. But now the government wants to take it a step further and ensure that children and working parents can properly rest by cutting down on their working hours and expanding parental leaves without affecting their pay.

The final axis being "Infrastructure maintenance and expansion", this one oversees and covers the costs of maintaining the most critical Infrastructures such as airports, sea ports, and roads that aren't already being maintained by the Nadiyan Commission for Rail, Air, & Water Ways. This axis will also tackle infrastructure expansion projects proposed by the republics like the extension of the Zarvospol metro, construction of the N-20 highway in Radin, and completion of the Pan-Kirikan look between Vrosnok and Lesnov.
