The situation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Russian Federation during the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting restrictive measures introduced by the state are analyzed in the context of the long-term dynamics of the sector and changes in public policy towards SMEs over the last two decades Based on the analysis of official statistics and business demographics in 2005-2020, it is revealed that unfavorable trend - first of all, a decline in business start ups and an increase in firms\' shutdowns - in the sector had developed already before the crisis of 2008 and further it continued to progress The main factors for such negative dynamics have been analyzed by the authors both in Russia as a whole and in different groups of regions The study shows that negative developments of the SME in the country should be understood in the context of negative socio-economic changes influenced by a series of established institutional traps which occurred during the systemic transition and the limited effectiveness of the measures applied to support SMEs An analysis of the feasibility and efficiency of the urgent state support measures of small business under the CIVID-19 has been carried out In conclusion, the authors draw practical recommendations on the principles of reloading the public policy toward SME which should be formed in future after the pandemic, as well as indicate possible junctions in their implementation

The situation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Russian Federation during the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting restrictive measures introduced by the state are analyzed in the context of the long-term dynamics of the sector and changes in public policy towards SMEs over the last two decades Based on the analysis of official statistics and business demographics in 2005-2020, it is revealed that unfavorable trend - first of all, a decline in business start ups and an increase in firms’ shutdowns - in the sector had developed already before the crisis of 2008 and further it continued to progress The main factors for such negative dynamics have been analyzed by the authors both in Russia as a whole and in different groups of regions The study shows that negative developments of the SME in the country should be understood in the context of negative socio-economic changes influenced by a series of established institutional traps which occurred during the systemic transition and the limited effectiveness of the measures applied to support SMEs An analysis of the feasibility and efficiency of the urgent state support measures of small business under the CIVID-19 has been carried out In conclusion, the authors draw practical recommendations on the principles of reloading the public policy toward SME which should be formed in future after the pandemic, as well as indicate possible junctions in their implementation Ситуация, в которой малое и среднее предпринимательство (далее - МСП) РФ оказалось в условиях пандемии коронавируса и обусловленных ею ограничительных мер государства, анализируется в контексте долгосрочной динамики данного сектора и изменений государственной политики в отношении МСП На основании анализа официальной статистики и бизнес-демографии за 2005-2020 гг выявлено, что неблагоприятные тенденции в указанном секторе сложились уже к кризису 2008 г и далее лишь продолжали углубляться;были проанализированы факторы негативной динамики как по РФ в целом, так и по различным группам регионов Показано, что такая динамика связана с неблагоприятными социально-экономическими изменениями под влиянием цепочки сформировавшихся институциональных ловушек и с ограниченной (из-за слабого охвата целевых групп и низкой селективности) эффективностью применявшихся мер поддержки МСП Дан разбор целесообразности и эффективности экстренных мер содействия малому бизнесу в условиях пандемии В заключение авторы формулируют практические выводы относительно принципов, на которых может происходить перезагрузка государственной политики в отношении МСП после пандемии, а также указывают возможные развилки при их имплементации
