Abstract
This paper investigates the impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic on household consumption patterns in Russia. We use household budget survey data, modelling the impact of household socioeconomic characteristics on consumption patterns. Additionally, we account for the regional heterogeneity of the severity of the quarantine measures. The results indicate a quantitative change in household consumption structure, but consumers’ behaviour patterns remain unchanged.
