The article offers solutions for further development of this market segment. In particular, early non-state pension provision is being considered. The prospects and risks of introducing a guaranteed pension plan are analyzed. A comparative analysis of the main characteristics of these two pension products is carried out. As part of the expansion of the investment Declaration of the portfolio of pension reserves of non-state pension funds, their participation in infrastructure projects is analyzed. Key words: non-state pension funds, non-state pension provision, guaranteed pension plan, state co- financing of pensions, pension reform, infrastructure investment. JEL classification: А100, А110, А130. Introduction Over the past decades, the Russian pension market has been repeatedly reformed. Despite this, according to many experts and most citizens of the country, the national pension system needs further reforms. Experts, in particular doctor of economics A.A. Shirov, give the following definition of a “successful” pension system: “the pension system can be considered fair when it allows maintaining an acceptable standard of living for pensioners and does not have significant negative effects on economic development” [15]. Thus, the main task of the Russian pension reform – ensuring a decent standard of living for pensioners – has not been solved. The level of pensions is still low, and the role of non–state pension funds (hereinafter referred to as NPF) in the economy is not significant. Every year, the French financial Corporation Natixis publishes a “Global pension index” that describes the degree of comfort of countries for pensioners. The rating takes into account 18 indicators divided into 4 groups: income level, economic situation, quality of life and level of medical services . Each factor is evaluated in the range from 0 to 100%. 4 VOLUME 6, No. 2 (22), 2020 At the end of 2017, out of 43 countries, Russia was in the fortieth place. Norway (86%), Switzerland (84%), Iceland (82%), Sweden (80%) and New Zealand (80%) were ranked first. The top 10 also included Australia (78%), Germany (77%), Denmark (77%), the Netherlands (77%) and Luxembourg (76%). The last places were taken by Brazil (41%), Greece (40%) and India (12%). Russia, in turn, has 45%, which is 1% less than in 2016 [19]. The results of this study allow us to conclude that despite repeated attempts to change the pension industry, the state was unable to perform one of its key social functions and provide former employees with an income level comparable to their pre-retirement level. On the one hand, this is due to the state of the Russian economy. In our opinion, in the near future, given the current level of budget revenues, the decrease in the number of people of working age and the demographic crisis, the government will not be able to provide sufficient payments to pensioners. On the other hand, as the experience of pension systems functioning in countries with developed economies shows, no pension system can guarantee a decent level of pension payments solely due to its mandatory component. The pension should have several sources and be formed at the expense of a multi-level pension system. In these circumstances, NPFs can play an important role in the development of the national pension system . According to the Bank of Russia, as of the third quarter of 2019, the number of active NPFs was 49 funds, and the total portfolio of pension funds exceeded 6 trillion RUB [9]. Thus, during their existence, these financial institutions have accumulated sufficient experience in accumulating and placing pension reserves. In our opinion, it is necessary to maximize the potential of the NPF to expand the segment of non-state pension provision.

Dramatic Expansion of the Range of the Invasive Ash Pest, Buprestid Beetle Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, 1888 (Coleoptera, Buprestidae) in European Russia M. Ja. Orlova-Bienkowskaja A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution, Moscow, Russia email: [email protected] Received June 23, 2013 Abstract—The emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, 1888) is a dangerous invasive pest of ashes. It was previously believed that in European Russia it occurs only in Moscow, Moscow Province, and in the eastern regions of Smolensk Province. An examination of ash trees in 12 cities of European Russia has revealed a much wider area of the emerald ash borer invasion. The pest was found in Konakovo (Tver Province), Tula, Kaluga, Orel, and Voronezh. We have found that A. planipennis damages not only Fraxinus pennsylvanica (an American species which is commonly planted in cities), but also the aborigine European ash Fraxinus excelsior. Ashes in the European forests and in the protective forest belts are badly endangered.

Emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis, is a destructive invasive forest pest in North America and European Russia. This pest species is rapidly spreading in European Russia and is likely to arrive in other countries soon. The aim is to analyze the ecological consequences of the establishment of this pest in European Russia and investigate (1) what other xylophagous beetles develop on trees affected by A. planipennis, (2) how common is the parasitoid of the emerald ash borer Spathius polonicus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Doryctinae) and what is the level of parasitism by this species, and (3) how susceptible is the native European ash species Fraxinus excelsior to A. planipennis. A survey of approximately 1000 Fraxinus pennsylvanica trees damaged by A. planipennis in 13 localities has shown that Hylesinus varius (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae), Tetrops starkii (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) and Agrilus con- vexicollis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) were common on these trees. Spathius polonicus is frequently recorded. About 50 percent of late instar larvae of A. planipennis sampled were parasitized by S.
