Development Of Small Businesses In Russia As Important Condition

Abstract

One of the most important sectors of the economy, which plays an important role in the social and economic development of the country, is the development of small enterprises. The economic advantages of small businesses are: lower cost of job creation; high domestic mobility in case of changes in demand with the use of local resources, inefficient for large production; high profitability of activities in "narrow" market segments, characterized by a specific and limited number of consumers; etc. Entrepreneurship development in developed countries is carried out through cooperation between large and small companies, where activities of large enterprises are not aimed at suppressing small companies, but at mutually beneficial cooperation with them. The structures of large and small businesses try to complement each other, especially in the field of specialization of individual industries and innovative developments. For this, various programs of state support and systems of evaluation of the effectiveness of the implementation of these programs have been developed. With the development of market economy changes in Russia, entrepreneurship, previously a prohibited activity during the Soviet era, began to revive and develop. Small business is developing in the country, becoming more and more civilized, but they are still lagging behind their Western counterparts in terms of their development level. The number of small enterprises in the country is not growing very fast. To overcome the existing negative trends in this area, it is necessary to develop and implement an effective system of state support for small businesses.
