This article is devoted to a comparative analysis of the financial stability of the development of regional budgets of certain constituent entities of the Russian Federation – Rostov Region, Republic of Kalmykia and Orel Region in comparison with the dynamic fluctuations of Russia’s economic development over the period 2010–2019. The relevance of the research topic is due to the need to create a methodology for assessing the financial stability of regional budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The purpose of this scientific article is to study and test the methodology suggested by the authors for the analysis of financial stability of regional budgets of Russia in the process of cyclical changes in the financial and economic environment of the national economy, as well as to demonstrate its practical application. The regional budgets of such constituent entities of the Russian Federation such as Rostov Region, Republic of Kalmykia, which are part of the Southern Federal District, and Orel Region, which is a constituent entity in the Central Federal District, were selected as the objects of the study. The authors define the subject of research as a system of financial and economic indicators that characterize the implementation of regional budgets of territorial units under analysis in the period 2010–2019. The obtained statistical data for the regions under analysis will be used in the subsequent material for the tests of the suggested methodology. When choosing the criteria for the assessment of the independence of the regional budget, the authors rely on the fundamental budget parameters, including its effectiveness, financial stability and balance of the revenue and expenditure parts of the budget. When analyzing the dynamics of the level of stability of the regional budgets of Rostov region, Republic of Kalmykia and Orel region, it was found that the region with a more developed social and economic infrastructure is more comfortable with cyclical shifts in the national economy (with the least losses, both for further development prospects of the region and for the population living in this territory). For regions where the social and economic situation is deteriorating, economic crises in the country have a multiplier effect, increasing both the gap in comparison with the developed regions of the Russian Federation, and the degree of imbalance of the regional economy and finance.

Russian regions recovered financial stability in 2017—2019 due to high ruble commodities prices, improving tax collection and conservative expenditures and borrowings policy. Panel data analysis shows that social-demographic structure of population is one of the key factors of regional budgets balance. Government measures will contribute to sustainability of regional finances and reducing interregional differences in debt sustainability, but provide negative impact of regional fiscal policy on output dynamics in the coming years. Strengthening of fiscal burden via federal taxes will diminish procyclicality of regional budgets revenues, but require a return of full profit tax rate on regional level for compensating lost incomes. For improving borrowing conditions Bank of Russia and regional governments must develop placement of bonds with floating rates, indexed and amortized nominal.

Enterprise Analysis

Industry-specific features of agricultural production are reflected in the methodology for assessing the financial stability, solvency and efficiency of the enterprise. Analysis of the impact of investment projects for technological modernization in dairy farming in a number of farms in the Yaroslavl region revealed the dependence of enterprises on borrowed funding sources, the lack of liquid assets and their low economic efficiency. The analysis of the total direct support of agricultural enterprises from the federal and regional budgets revealed a positive dynamics of the effectiveness of the allocated subsidies.

The Impact

This article is devoted to financial stability assessment of regional budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in the conditions of cyclical development of the national economic system. The authors identified the regional budgets of the following regions of the Russian Federation as objects of research: Rostov region, Republic of Kalmykia and Orel region. Financial and economic performance of the administration of budgets of these territorial units for the period 2010–2019, which are reflected in the previous article (Part 1) of the authors, were taken as the subject. The purpose of the article is to reflect the features of the practical application of the methodology presented by the authors for the analysis of changes in the financial stability of regional budgets of specific regions against the background of the impact of external economic forces (decrease in world energy prices, sanctions to Russian companies and entrepreneurs). The relevance of the research topic is connected with the demand for a high-quality and objective financial analysis of the budgets of specific regions of the Russian Federation against the background of the general economic crisis affecting all the main spheres of society, as well as negatively influencing economic and social policy, both at federal and regional levels. When making generalized assessments and conclusions about the dynamics of changes in the level of financial stability of the regional budgets of Rostov region, the Republic of Kalmykia and Orel region, the authors suggested a system of indicators characterizing the budget in the following main areas: budget efficiency, financial stability, as well as the balance of the revenues and expenditures of the regional budget. On the basis of analytical research, the authors found that regions characterized as financially stable have the following features: presence of a highquality and well-functioning process of planning and administration of the regional budget; effective use of the potential of region’s industrial resource base; active investment in projects, both promising, profitable, and socially significant. In the course of the study of regions with a low level of financial independence (the Republic of Kalmykia and Orel region), the authors noted that the consistently worsening economic sphere in the Russian economy leads to an acceleration of the rates of the degradation of social and economic situation of the entire region, thereby reducing financial opportunities of the corresponding budget, what consequently results in the decrease in the quality of life of the population of the regions under analysis.

Econometric Technique

We study the tax-spend nexus for Russian regional budgets. Causal relationship running from taxing to spending is found, thus supporting the concept “tax and spend” suggested by M. Friedman. Next, elasticity of expenditure by revenue is estimated for a panel of 80 regional budgets basing on data for 2000—2017. Estimates are in the range of 0.72 to 0.78 (depending on the econometric technique), which exceeds elasticity for the federal budget more than twice. This evidences that fiscal policy at the sub-federal (as distinct from the federal) level has clear pro-cyclical nature. Besides, the largest sensitivity of expenditure to revenue shocks is found for the item “national economy”, implying marked adverse implications for economic growth. We suggest to mitigate this effect by modifying fiscal rules for sub-federal budgets. They are currently aimed primarily at enhancing fiscal discipline, with less emphasis on countercyclical policy, insulating economy from fiscal shocks.

The paper analyzes central banks macroprudencial policy and its instruments. The issues of their classification, option, design and adjustment are connected with financial stability of overall financial system and its specific institutions. The macroprudencial instruments effectiveness is evaluated from the two points: how they mitigate temporal and intersectoral systemic risk development (market, credit, and operational). The future macroprudentional policy studies directions are noted to identify the instruments, which can be used to limit the financial systemdevelopment procyclicality, mitigate the credit and financial cycles volatility.

Regional Budgets

The problem of efficiency of regional tax expenditures is an actual issue of the fiscal policy and fiscal federalism in Russia. A large fiscal autonomy allows federal subjects to realize a more active tax policy to attract new investments. One cannot claim current fiscal powers of the Russian regions to be wide. However, not all the regions use even existing tax policy instruments. Moreover, out of the regions that use them only few provide incentives to stimulate investment decisions. Others use regional tax measures to support businesses that already have strong positions in the region. And it is an open question whether such tax incentives are efficient. On the other hand, an aggressive tax competition for investors can also be wasteful for regional budgets. In this paper, we calculate indicators that characterize the depth and scope of tax exemptions provided at the regional level. The calculations are based on the open tax statistics. Through the analysis of the tax legislation as well as the economic structure of selected regions, we reveal the inducements of their higher activity: federal regional tax policy, tax competition or benefits for budget-forming companies of the region.
