ACRA Affirms the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra at ААА(RU), Outlook Stable, and Bond Issues at Lead Analysts: AAA(RU) REGIONS RATING THE KHANTY-MANSIYSK AUTONOMOUS OKRUG - UGRA PRESS RELEASE September 9, 2019 ACRA affirms the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra at ААА(RU), outlook Stable, and bond issues at Lead analysts: AAA(RU) Maxim Pershin, Senior Analyst +7 (495) 139-0485 [email protected] The credit rating of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Ugra (hereinafter, the Region) is based on high regional economic indicators, the high liquidity of the Region's Elena Anisimova, Associate Director budget, and a low debt load. +7 (495) 139-04-86 [email protected] The Region is located in the Ural Federal District. The Region is an administrative subject 1 of the Russian Federation and at the same time is a part of the Tyumen Region . The regional population is 1.7 mln (1.1% of Russia’s population). The Region’s GRP amounted to RUB 3,511 bln in 2017, around 5% of Russia’s total GRP. According to the Region’s assessments, its GRP amounted to RUB 3,967 bln in 2018. Key rating assessment Low debt load and high budget liquidity. The Region’s debt portfolio is composed factors entirely of bonds with maturities before 2024. The debt to operating balance ratio will amount to 40% (minimal risk level) by the end of 2019. According to ACRA’s forecast, this ratio will remain within the limits corresponding to a low level of risk in 2020. The operating balance (excluding interest expenses) will be much higher than the volume of repayable debt over the course of 2019. The Region’s current (as of August 1, 2019) account balances are more than 7x higher than its total debt and exceed monthly budget expense averages for 7M 2019 by more than 5x. The region is a federal budget donor, producing more than 40% of Russian oil. The Region’s GRP sectoral structure is stable and the contribution of natural resources to this indicator is higher than 60%. At the end of 2018, 90% of taxes and fees collected in the Region were sent to the Federal budget and only 10% went to the Region’s consolidated budget. At the same time, revenues from the Region amounted to 26% of the Federal budget’s total tax revenues for this period. The Region ranks 3rd in GRP per capita among Russian regions. The Region’s unemployment level is significantly lower than the national average according to ILO methodology. High budget self-sufficiency. From 2016 to 2019, the share of tax and non-tax revenues (TNTR) averaged 96% of the Region’s total revenue (excluding subventions). According to ACRA’s methodology, the share of mandatory expenditures in 2018 amounted to 77%. In 2018, the combination of high oil prices and the low exchange rate of the national currency (which had not been the case in previous years) led to high ruble oil prices. As a result, in 2018, the regional budget’s income tax revenues grew significantly: from RUB 45 bln in 2017 to RUB 121 bln. This allowed the Region to fulfill its budget with a surplus of RUB 37 bln (14% of the Region’s TNTR). The current version of the Region’s budget law for 2019 provides for a reduction in income tax revenues by 41% (up to RUB 71 bln) and the fulfillment of the budget with a deficit of RUB 20 bln (11% of the Region's TNTR). The Region plans to finance this using the balances formed in 2018 and without resorting to long-term borrowings. ACRA estimates that the actual decline in income tax revenues in 2019 compared to 2018 may be below the level projected by the Region. Income tax revenues only declined by 10% in H1 2019 compared to H1 2018. 1 Part of the income tax revenues collected in the Region goes to the Tyumen Region’s budget (its size is regulated by the contract between the Tyumen Region and the Region and amounts to 29.5%). ACRA affirms the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra at ААА(RU), September 9, 2019 outlook Stable, and bond issues at AAA(RU) Key assumptions Maintaining countercyclical budget policy in terms of expenditure planning; Fulfilling the 2019 budget with a deficit lower than 11% of TNTR; Maintaining high budget liquidity. Potential outlook or rating The Stable outlook assumes that the rating will most likely stay unchanged within the change factors 12 to 18-month horizon. A negative rating action may be prompted by: Higher social spending in the Region’s budget without a corresponding increase in revenues; Growth in budget deficit up to 20% of TNTR as a result of TNTR underpayment in 2019; Significant changes in inter-budget relations in Russia.

This sector had been in continual decline since the break-up of the Soviet Union, but imports of breeding stock have resulted in a number of modern ranches. The Russian Federal and oblast governments offer a series of support programs meant to stimulate livestock development in the Russian Federation over the next seven years which are funded at hundreds of billions of Russian rubles (almost $10 billion). These programs are expected to lead to a recovery of the cattle industry. Monies have been allocated for both new construction and modernization of old livestock farms, purchase of domestic and imported of high quality breeding dairy and beef cattle, semen and embryos; all of which should have a direct and favorable impact on livestock genetic exports to Russia through 2020. General Information: Trade Russia’s live animal imports have soared in recent years, as the Federal Government has supported the rebuilding of the beef and cattle sector in Russia.

  • Communicational Ties Between the Republic of Bashkortostan and Other Russian Regions Based on Voice Cell Phone Data
    RESEARCH PAPER COMMUNICATIONAL TIES BETWEEN THE REPUBLIC OF BASHKORTOSTAN AND OTHER RUSSIAN REGIONS BASED ON VOICE CELL PHONE DATA Valeriy V. Yumaguzin1, Maria V. Vinnik1 1National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE), Moscow, Russia. *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received: May 24th, 2020 / Accepted: August 9th, 2020 / Published: October 1st, 2020 https://DOI-10.24057/2071-9388-2020-98 ABSTRACT. The article aims to present social ties of the Republic of Bashkortostan based on voice cell phone data, which covers 12 million calls from and to the region during the first five days of March 2020. About 96% of calls are made within the republic and only 4% of them are interregional. The people of the Republic of Bashkortostan have close connections with those who live in neighboring regions (Orenburg, Sverdlovsk oblast, the Republic of Tatarstan and especially Chelyabinsk oblast). Being a part of the Ural Economic Region, the Volga Federal District and Volga-Ural Macro Region, the republic has turned mostly towards Ural regions. We also found that the republic has close social ties with Moscow and Moscow region, St. Petersburg and Leningrad oblast, as well as Krasnodar kray, Samara oblast and two Autonomous Districts: Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets. We estimated the number of persons who possessed Bashkir SIM-card and were outside the republic during the research period – 183 thousand; the most of them were in the abovementioned regions. While conversation between residents lasts 50 seconds, which is among the smallest values, the calls to and from republics of Altai, Tyva, Khakassia, Sakha and Magadan oblast are 5-8 times longer.

  • Digital Component of People's Quality of Life in Russia
    Studies in Business and Economics no. 14(2)/2019 DOI 10.2478/sbe-2019-0029 SBE no. 14(2) 2019 DIGITAL COMPONENT OF PEOPLE'S QUALITY OF LIFE IN RUSSIA PETROV SERGEY Novosibirsk State Technical University, Faculty of Business, Novosibirsk, Russia MASLOV MIKHAIL Novosibirsk State Technical University, Faculty of Business, Novosibirsk, Russia KARELIN ILYA Novosibirsk State Technical University, Faculty of Business, Novosibirsk, Russia Abstract: The term “people's quality of life” has not been given any widespread explanation in the context of society digital transformation. There are six attributes specified to characterize digital component of people's quality of life. Basing on official statistics data, subindices for the corresponding data blocks were computed. A mixed method to estimate the digital component of people's quality of life was used. Also, the Russian index of digital component of people's quality of life was defined for the whole country and for its federal districts. The results of computations allowed to characterize the changes in subindices within blocks and in the integral index covering eight federal districts and in Russia in the whole for the period of 2015–2017. Positive dynamics of the Russian index of digital component of people's quality of life was revealed with some fluctuations for different federal districts. Key words: Digital transformation, Index, Quality of life, Ranking, Federal districts of Russia 1. Introduction Digital transformation of economy involves all spheres of people and organizations activities. It suggests the alteration of technological paradigm, traditional markets as well as institutional structure of society, in which it is now necessary to consider interaction of formal and informal, market and non-market institutions as well as those corresponding to digital and non-digital processes etc.
