One of the differentiating characteristics and the main goal of this study has been to empirically study the financial literacy of modern Russian pupils and to determine their attitude to the problem of financial literacy in their everyday life. In order to solve the above goals, a set of sociological methods has been used, including a mass face-to-face survey of pupils from most regions of the country, a mass face-to-face online survey of students studying at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, in Moscow departments and departments of the regional branch network, an expert survey in regions of the Russian Federation, a content analysis of key electronic databases, e.g., the Russian State Library, the Library of Dissertations and Abstracts, the eLIBRARY.RU Scientific Electronic Library, a webometric analysis of more than 1,500 official websites of Russian regions on the problems under study, including the Usability and Visibility analysis. The authors have made some unique conclusions. Thus, more than ¾ of the modern youth understand the importance of financial literacy as an instrument to achieve their goals, and the goals demanded by the modern society. The main ones are to obtain education, to create a family, to achieve success in their career and professional growth, to establish their own business, etc. One important conclusion is as follows: the prospects for the use of deposits by today’s pupils, mortgage lending, leasing, and participation in mutual investment funds (MIFs) have a number of fundamental regional differences. Moreover, these regional differences among pupils as potential investors may be demanded by modern commercial financial and credit organizations for preparing promising medium-term development plans for their regional branches.

The issues of improving the financial literacy of the population are currently receiving a lot of attention both at the international and national levels. Of particular relevance are financial literacy issues for the Russian Federation. Due to the peculiarities of the country's historical development, for most citizens of Russia, issues of personal financial planning, the principles of the functioning of financial markets, the possibility of investing savings remain obscure, as a result of this, the population can not fully use modern financial products and services, does not know their rights in the financial market and unable to protect them in accordance with the law. It should be noted that the problem of a low level of financial literacy of citizens is a problem at the national level, since a low level of financial literacy negatively affects the personal well-being of citizens, their financial potential, and accordingly prevents the development of the financial market, inhibiting investment processes in the economy. Under these conditions, increased interest in issues of financial education and financial literacy of citizens of the Russian Federation is logical and, since 2011, the World Bank and the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation have actively implemented a project “Promoting Improving the Level of Financial Literacy of the Population and Development of Financial Education in the Russian Federation”. One of the most important areas of the project is to increase the financial literacy of children and youth. Since the start of the project, a range of training materials has been developed in this area, professional development of school teachers, teachers of orphanages, college teachers is provided, and weeks of financial literacy are held. The result of the events was a significant increase in the level of financial literacy of Russian schoolchildren. In this regard, the experience of the Russian Federation in improving financial literacy of children and youth is of great interest.

The Object of the Study. The population of the Russian Federation divided into target groups. The Subject of the Study. Financial education of Russians, taking into account the characteristics of various target groups. The Purpose of the Study. Clarification of target groups of Russian citizens for the implementation of the financial education strategy. The Main Provisions of the Article. In today's reality, financial literacy is becoming a necessary skill for personal and social well-being. In the conditions of active development of the financial market, increasing financial literacy of the population provides citizens with the opportunity not only to effectively use various financial products and services, make profitable economic decisions, but also to be full participants in the entire socioeconomic system of the state. However, currently there is a fairly low level of financial literacy of Russians, and this trend is observed from year to year, due to the complexity of the financial market as a whole, an erroneous idea of the essence of certain concepts, and as a result, the construction of financial strategies in accordance with this understanding, and this may indirectly indicate the inefficiency of the current system for improving financial literacy of Russian citizens. To implement the strategy of improving financial literacy of the population, first of all, it is necessary to clearly understand who will receive the training. It is a well-thought-out classification of target groups that is the basis for building a system of financial education, forming a methodological basis, training specialists to broadcast financial knowledge and creating educational channels. According to the author, it is recommended to clarify and supplement the existing classification of target groups, approved by the current strategy for improving financial literacy in the Russian Federation for 2017-2023, by including such categories of citizens as preschoolers, citizens with disabilities, vulnerable segments of the population (orphans, children in orphanages and boarding schools), as well as to clarify the current structure of the "adult population" group, dividing it into low-income citizens and families, and citizens with medium and high incomes (including families). In addition, it is recommended to divide each target group by the level of available financial knowledge and skills, which will allow you to create a targeted, personalized, thoughtful training system that promotes financial literacy, awareness as well as evaluate the results of such training.

Mortgage lending is one of the key levers in the financial mechanism of the country, contributing to the formation of a stable socio-economic situation of the population. There are many factors that hinder the formation of an effective mortgage lending system. In this case, we should not neglect the practical experience of developed foreign countries, whose credit activities are a powerful element of the financial and credit system.

In economic literature, the analysis of the effectiveness of on-site tax audits is underrepresented both with regard to the economic and mathematical calculation and within the behavioral context. On-site tax audits, as one of the forms of tax management, affect budget incomes and expenditures. Effective audits promote budget replenishment. Ineffective audits cause budget expenditures for their execution without fiscal payoff. The study aimed at the development of a technique and using it for the analysis of the effectiveness of on-site tax audits in the Russian Federation. The analysis of normative base, statistical tax reporting, and summation of the practice of on-site tax audits formed the basis for the proposed technique of analysis of the effectiveness of on-site tax audits. The analysis technique is characterized by the revised structure of criteria, dynamic and static parameters. The authors determined and considered in real-time the percentage of on-site tax audits, which identified violations of law; carried out the analysis of payments additionally accrued according to the results of on-site tax audits. The study identified and analyzed in real-time the effectiveness of one on-site tax audit, as well as the ratio of payments additionally accrued according to the results of on-site and desktop tax audits. The authors analyzed the transformation of the structure of on-site tax audits. The paper proposes organizational ways of improvement of the effectiveness of on-site tax audits: the development of electron interaction of tax authorities and taxpayers with possible temporary access to tax and accounting reports and other documents, implementation of digital control of tax bases at the stage of pre-inspection analysis; the expanding of welcoming face-to-face and remote contacts with taxpayers as the participants of the process of the national economy development.

Aim. To study the prevalence of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), the characteristics of the clinical features and treatment of the disease in selected regions of the Russian Federation, this article describes the design and initial characteristics of patients included in the study.Material and methods. The study participants were selected among those included in the study “Epidemiology of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases in the regions of the Russian Federation” (ESSE-RF) in different regions of the Russian Federation. The study included individuals with lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels >4.9 mmol/l or LDL-C levels >1.8 mmol/l, but ≤4.9 mmol/l during statin therapy, according to the data obtained in the ESSE-RF study. These persons are invited for examination and questioning by experts in the field of FH diagnostics. On the basis of the survey data and provided medical documentation, the following information is collected: age, sex, smoking status, presence of hypertension, history of coronary artery disease, stroke, atherosclerosis of cerebral and peripheral arteries, LDL-C level, type, volume and duration of lipid-lowering therapy throughout life, presence and dates of secondary causes of hyperlipidemia, information about the family history of development of early cardiovascular diseases and atherosclerotic diseases, increased levels of LDL-C in relatives of the 1st and 2nd degree of kinship. All patients are examined for the presence of tendon xanthomas (Achilles, metacarpal, elbow, knee tendons) and Corneal arcus. During the visit, blood is taken for subsequent biobanking, measurement of current blood lipid levels, elimination of secondary forms of hypercholesterolemia (for subsequent determination of liver enzymes, thyroid stimulating hormone) and genetic testing. The diagnosis of FH is based on Dutch Lipid Clinical Network Criteria (DLCN). Besides, all participants in the study are tested for compliance with the diagnosis of FH according to Simon Broome criteria. All patients with a definite or probable diagnosis of FH according to DLCN or Simon Broome criteria are subjected to ultrasound examination of carotid, femoral arteries and heart and molecular genetic testing for LDLR, APOB and PCSK9 gene variants.Results. Out of 16 360 participants of the ESSE-RF study in 10 regions, 1787 people (10,9%) met the criteria for inclusion in this study. Among them, men accounted for 35.4%, of which 1150 (7%) patients had a LDL-C level >4.9 mmol/l and 637 (3,9%) had a LDL-C level from 1,81 mmol/l to 4.9 mmol/l during lipid-lowering therapy. When compared to the original cohorts of participants from the 10 regions as compared to 3 previously surveyed regions and selected sub-groups within these cohorts we observed significant differences in several parameters such as age, total cholesterol level, triglycerides, LDL-C, the frequency of cardiovascular diseases, that may indicate regional differences in FH prevalence.Conclusion. The analysis of clinical data of the participants of the ESSE-RF study shows that more than 10% of individuals require an additional examination to verify the FH diagnosis, and regional differences in the FH prevalence are possible.

The subject of the study is the inter-regional differences in the state of public health and the demographic situation in the Russian Federation regions. The theoretical aspect of the subject is determined by the development of priorities of the Russian healthcare development strategy aimed at alignment of regional differences in the levels of healthcare development in the Russian Federation regions. The empirical aspect of the subject is to identify interregional differences in the state of public health and the demographic situation in the Russian Federation regions by using the EM cluster analysis method (Expectation Maximization). The method was implemented in the integrated development environment RStudio. The official statistics from Rosstat for the period 2014–2018 were used as the initial dataset. The purpose of the study is justifying the regulation of inter-regional differences of the Russian Federation regions. As a result of clustering, nine homogeneous clusters of the Russian Federation regions were identified. The main characteristics of the formed clusters are determined. Among the priorities of the RF healthcare development strategy are as follows: implementation of a unified tariff policy in the system of compulsory medical insurance; ensuring the balance of territorial compulsory medical insurance programs within the framework of the basic programme of compulsory medical insurance through financial security based on a single per capita standard; development of telemedicine, providing prompt remote consultation of leading experts in the provision of medical care, regardless of the territorial location of the patient and the doctor; ensuring the implementation of distance education courses and continuing education programs for medical workers; rationalization of the distribution of resources and capacities of medical organizations based on a three-tier system of medical care; development of regional public health centres. The results of this study can be used to develop federal and territorial programs for socioeconomic development, formulate a strategy for the development of healthcare at macro- and meso- levels, and optimize decisions of regional authorities regarding population policy.
