Currently, the Russian economy is facing a number of exogenous and endogenous challenges that hinder economic growth and development. The budget policy of the state can, through the use of fiscal instruments, support declining business activity, which, on the one hand, requires an increase in public spending, including investment, and, on the other hand, a reduction in the tax burden. The paper presents an analysis of the most successful examples of using fiscal tools in modern Russia. The purpose of the article is to analyze the domestic experience of using fiscal instruments and identify the most effective tools for stimulating economic growth. Statistical methods, a systematic approach, and integral analysis were used as the methodological basis of the study. Having studied the best practices of applying fiscal instruments in Russia, the authors identified the most effective tax and budget instruments. Conclusions are drawn about the greatest effectiveness of the application of proportional taxation of personal income and reduction of indirect tax rates. Among the budget instruments, spending on R & D financing, increasing budget investment in infrastructure projects, and human capital are of particular importance. Based on the results of the study, theoretical and practical proposals for adjusting the current budget policy of Russia are formulated.

One of the most important goals of the state is to increase the country’s economic growth rate, including achieving high economic growth indicators such as the level of inflation and unemployment. The current situation in the Russian Federation requires a comprehensive approach from the authorities: within the country to increase the level of welfare of citizens, outside its borders-to preserve and increase competitiveness. This paper presents a retrospective analysis of economic growth rates from 1992 to 2019. Having studied the Russian experience of applying measures and tools of budget policy, the authors identified the most effective tax and budget tools. Best practices have shown the most significant effectiveness in such tax instruments as moderately progressive taxation of personal income, reducing the basic tax rate for indirect taxes, and expanding the practice of applying the simplified tax system. Among the budgetary instruments, the following have shown high efficiency: an increase in expenditures of the budget system budgets for basic and applied scientific research, an increase in budget investments in the industry that contribute to subsequent multiplicative growth, and an increase in expenditures of the budget system budgets for vocational training, retraining and advanced training of the working population.

The article presents an analysis of the draft «Main directions of the unified state monetary policy for 2021 and for the period 2022–2023» of the Bank of Russia, aimed at finding out whether the designed monetary policy will contribute to solving the main problems of the Russian economy. Leaning towards a generally negative answer to this question, the authors of the article, firstly, establish that some of these problems, including problems whose solution falls within the direct competence of the Bank of Russia, and which, accordingly, fall within the subject area of the regulatory instruments available to the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, are clearly insufficiently worked out in the document or, worse, only simply indicated. Unfortunately, this also applies to the key reproduction tasks associated with ensuring rapid, sustainable and high-quality economic growth. Secondly, they fix the year that began in March 2021 new round of increase in the key rate of the Bank of Russia. Third, they emphasize the fact of the negative synergy of the Bank of Russia’s tight monetary policy and the Russian Ministry of Finance’s tight budget policy, designed for the period up to 2023. The article substantiates the need for a coordinated approach of financial regulators and agencies to solve the problems of overcoming the crisis and stimulating economic growth.

The article presents the key results of scenario projections that underpinned the Strategy for long-term low carbon economic development of the Russian Federation to 2050, including analysis of potential Russia’s GHG emission mitigation commitments to 2050 and assessment of relevant costs, benefits, and implications for Russia’s GDP. Low carbon transformation of the Russian economy is presented as a potential driver for economic growth that offers trillions-of-dollars-worth market niches for low carbon products by mid-21st century. Transition to low carbon economic growth is irreversible. Lagging behind in this technological race entails a security risk and technological backwardness hazards.

Subject. The article investigates a Russian approach to ensuring economic growth. Objectives. The aim is to identify the basis of the Russian approach to ensuring economic growth. Methods. The study rests on the systems approach, using the methods of statistical, neural network, and cluster analysis. Results. The paper defines the structural importance of exports of goods and services, and changes in inventories. It highlights significant links with public consumption expenditures. The Russian approach to ensuring economic growth comes down to devaluation of the national currencyб resulting from the loss of the real inflationary potential of economic growth to maintain the volume of exports of goods and services in the context of maintaining public consumption expenditures. The increase in M2 forces the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to increase its foreign exchange reserves. This has a restraining effect on the growth of Russian Ruble’s monetary exchange rate. This phenomenon causes a drop in the Russian federal loan bond (OFZ) index and a replacement of strategic priorities with tactical ones. Conclusions. The basis of the Russian approach to ensuring economic growth is a reflection of the limits of the Russian economy development and the effectiveness of the Government of the Russian Federation.

The article considers the problem of the relationship of structural changes and economic growth in the global economy and Russia in the framework of different methodological approaches. At the same time, the paper provides the analysis of complementarity of economic policy types, which, on the one hand, are aimed at developing the fundamentals of GDP growth (institutions, human capital and macroeconomic stabilization), and on the other hand, at initiating growth (with stable fundamentals) with the help of structural policy measures. In the study of structural changes in the global economy, new forms of policies of this kind have been revealed, in particular aimed at identifying sectors — drivers of economic growth based on a portfolio approach. In a given paper a preliminary version of the model of the Russian economy is provided, using a multisector version of the Thirlwall’s Law. Besides, the authors highlight a number of target parameters of indicators of competitiveness of the sectors of the Russian economy that allow us to expect its growth rate to accelerate above the exogenously given growth rate of the world economy.

Managing inflation is a major problem for monetary and economic policy, as it is difficult to simultaneously combat inflation and to develop a permanent mechanism of its control. At the moment Russia is in crisis, because foreign means of payment replace the national currency, which leads to the deterioration of the national economy. Each state strives for stable and low inflation. Anti-inflation regulation uses deflationary policy, income policy and exchange rate policy as the advanced methods. A state may apply the adaptive policy, when the population adapts to the increased prices and the government reduces tax rates and payments. The analysis of inflation processes and inflation expectations showed that in Russia the primary devaluation effect (2014-2015) was weakened by 2016 due to the drop of market demand andgradually exhausted. Consequently, the Russian economy in 2016 reached the historic lows and amounted to 5.4% - the lowest level over a quarter of a century. According to the conducted research, it can be inferred that the development of economy of the Russian Federation develops under a conservative scenario. In terms of this scenario, during the period from 2018 to 2023 inflation will be slightly higher than in the innovation scenario and will make on average 4.8%. In the future, much will depend on the scenario of the development of the global economic crisis. There are possible various inflationary excesses, but their nature will be very limited in time and scope and won’t become a serious problem for the population and economy of the country.

The article describes two priority lines for action to restart national projects. First, it is necessary to move to the five-year national economic plan as a system of national projects. Second, we need new national projects, because the existing 13 projects do not cover some tasks formulated in the decrees of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin. We are talking about such tasks as increasing the real incomes of Russians and overcoming poverty, about ensuring a technological breakthrough. The author notes that we need a system of national projects, focusing on key sectors of the Russian economy, primarily in mechanical engineering. We also need new national projects to ncrease investments in the fixed capital and human capital (in the "knowledge economy"). Moreover, it is necessary to adjust the content and system of measures for some existing national projects.
