Analysis of the risks of investing in the regional transport industry using the example of the Moscow region

This paper examines the significance of the development of the regional transport industry using the example of the Moscow region, which is currently the main transport hub between Moscow and the regions. An analysis of the general risks of the regional transport industry was carried out, which included the following groups: macroeconomic, geopolitical, environmental and technological, operational, tariff, etc. It was established that when implementing projects in the transport sector, not all financial responsibility should lie exclusively with the public sector. It is necessary to attract private investors interested in using transport services to participate in such projects. In this connection, an investment mechanism for the development of the regional transport industry arises in the form of public-private partnership. The relevance of this conclusion for the object of study is confirmed by statistical data on the location of the Moscow region in first place in the ranking of regions in terms of the level of development of these projects. The paper provides a classification of the risks of investing in the regional transport industry according to risk manageability criteria, according to participants in the investment mechanism, as well as a possible risk management mechanism. It has been established that regional management must draw up a risk map and develop methods and mechanisms for managing investment risks in order to minimize adverse consequences and achieve the objectives of sustainable development of the region’s transport industry. Reducing risks and threats to Russia's economic security within the transport industry makes it possible to solve internal problems and obtain a synergistic effect, ultimately increasing the competitiveness of the national economy and contributing to its stable growth.

Russia’s Security Perceptions and Arctic Governance

Russia’s war in Ukraine further strained Russia’s relations with the West and negatively influenced Arctic regional governance, especially after seven members of the Arctic Council paused cooperation with Russia. The rationale of the suspension was to express disapproval by seven Arctic states of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine. However, the suspension of cooperation with Russia within the Arctic Council format prompted some observers to question the relevance and utility of the institution. Russia never expressed its wish to leave the Council and continues to express its desire for multilateral cooperation in the region. This raises the question: Can Russia’s assertive stance in Ukraine coexist with peaceful cooperation in the Arctic? In order to answer this question, this article addresses the following questions: How does the geopolitical tension shape Russia’s approach to Arctic governance? And what is the role of military and economic security in Russia’s Arctic policy? The article uses a comparative method combined with discourse analysis to establish a change in Russia’s view on Arctic governance before and after the war in Ukraine.

Migration Processes in the CIS Border Space and Their Impact on Russia's Economic Security

The relevance of the study lies in the need to study the current migration situation in the Russian Federation from the CIS countries in order to develop recommendations for more effective regulation of migration flows, since for Russia this is a matter of the country's economic security.The purpose is to analyze the dynamics and forecast of migration trends in the CIS on the basis of statistical data and to identify the directions of migration policy of the Russian Federation and the CIS countries for the regulation of these processes.Objectives: to analyze the current and forecasted trends of migration flows to the Russian Federation from the CIS countries, taking into account the annexed regions; identify areas of migration regulation in order to ensure the country's security.Methodology. The methodological basis of the study is the theory of Theodore Anderson. The results of the analysis of statistical data are presented using the methods of systematization and the illustrative-graphic method.Results. Migration policy in the CIS countries is implemented taking into account the peculiarities of the state. The problem of regulating migration flows lies in the vast border with Kazakhstan, Belarus, and Ukraine. After the annexation of Luhansk, Donetsk, part of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, the nature of migration flows has changed, residents are citizens of the Russian Federation. Belarus and Kazakhstan are subject to a simplified option of employment on the territory of the Russian Federation as members of the EAEU.Conclusions. The analysis confirmed the need to continue joint work and exchange of effective practices in control, regulation and counteraction to illegal migrants.

Reproduction of Competitive Human Capital as a Factor of Ensuring Russia's Economic Security in the Global Economy

The growing interest in the study of the reproduction of competitive human capital is caused by the destabilization of the political, social and economic situation in the world in the conditions of pandemics and the sanctions policy of the countries of the «golden billion». The implementing of artificial intelligence leads to the reduction of even the elite layer in the labor market, such as IT specialists. Enterprises of basic industries and related industries face a decrease in demand and reduce staff. The digitization of processes results in personnel reductions in sectors that provide financial, informational, and other services. Job cuts — reduction in disposable income — reduction in demand — reduction in economic growth — reduction in investment resources and opportunities: all this requires the search for new levers to improve efficiency and life security. The analysis of modern economic scientific literature shows an underestimation of the reproduction characteristics of a specific factor and investment resource — a person, his creative component in the process of its productive use. The reproductive perspective allows for the alignment of interests among all parties involved in the production process within a company, the creation of value-added chains at regional and national levels, and serves as a key factor in increasing their competitiveness in global markets. This approach fits well with the search for mechanisms to ensure economic security at all three levels: micro, meso and macro in the global economy of a multipolar world.

Prospects for Achieving Technological Sovereignty and Economic Security of Russia in the Face of Sanctions Pressure

Under the pressure of sanctions, Russia is faced with a set of new threats and risks that can disrupt the normal reproduction process of the entire national economy. The President and the Government of the Russian Federation initiated measures to stabilize the economy, and to adjust its structure with the view of achieving technological sovereignty. The measures taken, though positively assessed, cannot be considered sufficient. With the world-systems approach, the author scrutinizes the prospects for achieving the goals set. The article highlights the difficulties and institutional features inherent in peripheral economies, in particular Russia. To achieve technological sovereignty, it is proposed to get out of the peripheral position and the corresponding relations of non-equivalent exchange. To do this, it is necessary to initiate significant institutional changes that involve the introduction of planning institutions, a system of fair distribution in the economy, and mechanisms for mitigating acute social problems.

Формирование модели оценки экономической безопасности в условиях цифровых преобразований

Introduction. New economic conditions today are reflected in the development of the digital economy and determine the need to develop new methods of assessment, management, ways to attract specialists. In this article, an attempt was made to formulate a model for assessing economic security in the context of digital transformation, showing how the introduction of digital technologies contributes to the growth of real industry indicators and indicators and economic security. Theoretical analysis is based on the assumption that the effectiveness of digital transformations is expressed through the rate of change in the economic security indicators of a particular industry. For example, the agro-industrial complex was chosen as the key one in the field of maintaining the food and economic security of Russia. The model for assessing the economic security of innovation activity includes four stages: the formation of a set of indicators that characterize the level of digital development of the industry; construction of a reference series and ranking of indicators; comparison of the actual ranking series with the reference ranking series, calculation of the development coefficient; interpretation of the digital transformations’ economic security assessment results. Empirical analysis. The results obtained indicate that there are pathological problems in the industry that cannot be resolved through digitalization, this is proved by the development coefficient trend: there is an outstripping growth of investment in digital development against the backdrop of weakly growing intra-industry indicators; there is a decrease in the real disposable income of the population against the backdrop of rising inflation, which affects the purchasing power of the population; in the agro-industrial complex there is a high level of depreciation of fixed assets. Conclusions. The use of the economic security assessment model quite informatively reflects the current realities of economic development. The results of the assessment showed the presence of crisis phenomena in the industry and its grave condition. A way of solving the existing problems can be the increase of economic security both at the level of the state and industry, and at the level of a single organization.

External Threats to Russia's Economic Security

In modern conditions of uncertainty of the functioning of the national economy, the issues of analysis of external threats to Russia's economic security act as a way to assess the degree of its dependence on the actions of other states. The analysis of the main indicators in the field of economic security indicates a close relationship between external and internal threats, where external threats can be considered in some cases as a source of internal formation, which objectively increases the importance of strengthening national policies to ensure the protection of the economy from external influences. The research analyzed general directions of the influence of external threats on the domestic economy - such as high dependence of the national economy on unfriendly countries, the strengthening of foreign economic pressure on Russia, the attempts to destabilize the domestic economic situation through the termination of economic management, capital outflow, and pressure on others. We examined operational statistical data, conducted qualitative and quantitative analysis, and proposed measures to mitigate the impact of external threats with clarification of long-term prospects for the development of economic security.
