Contemporary problems of budget development of regional centers by M. A. Pechenskaya

“…It is shown that the risk of budget reduction in the social sphere and economy financing increased due to the growing cost of servicing municipal debt, which in the North-Western federal district regional centers increased 14 times in 2011-2018, while the average growth in Russia in that period was four-fold. The increase in the rate of budget expenditures centralization was revealed, which was manifested in an eight-fold increase in the delegated authority from higher levels to the budgets of regional centers of the North-Western federal district in 2011-2018.Scientific novelty: modern patterns of budget systems development of regional centers of Russia and the North-Western federal district are defined and justified, in particular for 2011-2018.Practical significance: the materials of the article can be used by professors of higher educational institutions in the educational process, and by researchers as a research base. …”
