Enterprises of small and medium-sized businesses of the North Caucasus Federal District (SCF) increased the volume of bank loans attracted to 5.76 billion rubles using the “umbrella” guarantees of the MSP Corporation in the first half of 2025. This is 6% more than in the same period last year.

“The North Caucasian region is actively using the mechanisms of state support to attract financing. According to the results of the first half of the year, thanks to the financial instruments of participants in the national guarantee system, small and medium -sized businesses of the North Caucasus was able to attract 22.3 billion rubles, which is 56% more than in the first six months of 2024. One of the most popular tools was the “umbrella” mechanism of the SME Corporation, which allowed entrepreneurs to attract the necessary funding in the absence or insufficiency of the pledge. And the banks thus received an additional incentive to support local business projects, ”said Alexander Novak, deputy chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation.

The leaders in attracting financing using the mechanism of “umbrella” guarantees were the Stavropol Territory (3.54 billion rubles), the Chechen Republic (0.86 billion rubles) and the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania (0.54 billion rubles), the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (0.43 billion rubles) and the Republic of Dagestan (0.26 billion rubles). The largest increase in financing with “umbrella” guarantees is noted in the Chechen Republic (+74%), the Stavropol Territory (+24%) and the Republic of North Ossetia – Alania (+13%).

“According to the results of the first half of 2025, in fact, every fourth ruble received by the entrepreneurs of the North Caucasus in the form of borrowed banking financing was obtained using the mechanism of“ umbrella ”guarantees. The procedure for obtaining them is automatically, without the participation of an entrepreneur. The guarantee itself is free for business: the bank pays the commission. For the North Caucasus Federal District, special limits of guarantees of the SME Corporation were allocated and there are no restrictions on industries. This year, our “umbrella” guarantees most often used enterprises in the segment of information and communication – compared to the same period last year, growth was more than six times, ”said Alexander Isaevich, General Director of the SME Corporation.

The growth of “umbrella” support was shown by enterprises in the processing segment (92%), services (88%), transportation and storage (40%), agriculture (34%), healthcare and social sphere (51%), culture and sports. In addition to the “umbrella” guarantees of the SME Corporation, the small and medium business of the North Caucasus Federal District, following the results of the first six months of 2025, received more than 8 billion rubles of financial support in the subsidiary of the SME Bank in the form of loans and warranty support. This is three times more than according to the results of the same period a year earlier.

The “umbrella” mechanism involves the provision of guarantees to banks – partners of the MSP Corporation, within the framework of which financial organizations issue loans to entrepreneurs provided by the guarantees of the SME Corporation. Such guarantees cover up to 50% of the bank loan. The amount of one guarantee can reach 1 billion rubles in a period of up to 10 years. The mechanism guarantees the bank the fulfillment of obligations on such a loan, thereby reducing reserves and releasing liquidity for additional lending to the business.

The “umbrella” mechanism of guarantees was launched in 2021 on behalf of the President of Russia and is currently being implemented at the national project “Effective and Competitive Economics”.

The Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation signed the Resolution prepared by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia on changing the requirements for the list of minimum necessary services provided at road service facilities. From March 1, 2026, at filling stations (AZS) in the right-of-way of highways, it must be possible to use DC charging stations with a capacity of at least 44 kW for electric vehicles.

The changes will affect petrol stations located on public roads of federal, regional, inter-municipal and local significance. The resolution supplements the list of minimum necessary services provided at road service facilities, and also regulates the minimum necessary requirements for the capacity of electric vehicle chargers.

"Over the past three years, there has been a threefold increase in the number of electric vehicles in the country. At the moment, more than 67 thousand "electric trains" have already been registered. Their operation is largely limited to city streets, where the density of electric charging stations is significantly higher than on highways. One of our implemented initiatives was the adjustment of requirements for filling stations in the right-of-way of public roads. Fast charging stations with a capacity of at least 44 kW will appear at new filling stations. This will generally increase the mobility of electric vehicles, the speed of their movement over long distances, and reduce the time required to charge an electric vehicle," commented Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Mikhail Kaminsky.

The work is being carried out within the framework of the implementation of the activities of the federal project “Production of Innovative Transport”, which is part of the new national project “Industrial Support of Transport Mobility”.

Its participants included teams representing 17 regional centers for optimization of public services "My Documents" (MFC), as well as teams from the "Central Bank" and JSC "Analytical Center" (a subordinate institution of Rossotrudnichestvo). They will have to immerse themselves in the basics of the Unified Technology for Designing Solutions for Life Situations of the Agency and the State Corporation "Rosatom" over the course of four days. Another organizer of the educational process will be the Center for Strategic Research. The training is being conducted on the initiative of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia, and the Lipetsk Region is the host.

"In Russia, there is an example of a working digital platform that provides access to a huge number of public services, which is constantly evolving and improving. At the same time, there are requests for new tools and services that can also be transferred to an electronic format, making them more accessible and transparent. Lipetsk Oblast has experience in implementing electronic technologies using standardization and structuring of requests, which can also contribute to the development of new proposals for various life situations," Lipetsk Oblast Governor Igor Artamonov addressed the training participants.

The idea to create a model of a unified national system for managing project arrays “Strong Country: Unified Technology for Integrating Projects and Initiatives” was submitted by the Governor of the Lipetsk Region Igor Artamonov and was included in the top 100 ideas of the forum.

The model is aimed at improving the quality of life of citizens by increasing the efficiency of implementing projects and initiatives, as well as changing the paradigm of the system of interaction between government bodies and citizens by increasing the effectiveness and satisfaction with the solution of problems. The effects of implementing the model solution will be a reduction in duplication of processes in public administration, an increase in citizen satisfaction with services and savings in budget funds due to optimization.

A unified technology for designing solutions for life situations of ASI and Rosatom can become a key tool for the future model of a unified national system for managing project arrays.

"As part of the training, its participants will develop life situations using advanced optimization tools: service design and lean technologies. They will examine in detail the updated version of the federal register of public services FRGU 3.0, which will become a single source of reference data on all services provided in the country, and will become familiar with the functionality of the system in detail. The main result of the training is the formation of a systemic understanding of the tasks in creating a client-centric state and the digitalization of public services," commented State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Alexey Khersontsev.

It is expected that the training will improve the competencies of the RCO employees in various areas of their activities. For example, to optimize work processes, increase the level of human-centricity in the provision of services, and develop a description of the target state for state and municipal services (SMS). Using the Unified Technology, training participants will be able to analyze a state (municipal) service in order to improve the customer journey, as well as effectively transfer the provision of state and municipal services to the Unified State Services Portal to an electronic format.

"The main idea of creating regional optimization centers was initially to use the existing potential of highly qualified MFC employees and form competence centers from among them to help government agencies implement federal tasks to optimize public services. The ROCs met all expectations, and I admire their willingness to absorb new knowledge, pick up and test promising methods in order to stay on top!" – noted Natalia Yakovleva, Director of the MFC Development Center CSR.

Following the in-person training, teams from 17 constituent entities of the Russian Federation will work for 15 weeks to simplify the service provision scenario, reduce the number of interactions between citizens and departments, reduce the time it takes to provide services, and increase the demand for services.

The speakers of the program will be Andrey Kapalin, Director of ASI programs, Sergey Artemyev, Head of the project of JSC PSR of the State Corporation Rosatom, as well as Vyacheslav Nazarov, Head of the Department of Digital Transformation of Administrative Regulations of the Competence Center for Digital Transformation of Public Services of the CSR.

"Increasing citizens' satisfaction with the quality of public services is one of the Agency's key tasks, which was included in the new approved ASI Strategy until 2030. The training has already proven its effectiveness: socially significant projects based on human-centric principles are being launched in the regions. Involvement of departments in the Unified Technology project is an important step in continuing work on removing administrative barriers in obtaining key public services. The Unified Technology is already being used in the work of employment services, and now multifunctional centers will also receive our tool for work," explained ASI Program Director Andrey Kapalin.

Let us recall that 59 subjects have already completed training under the joint program with the State Corporation Rosatom "Unified Technology for Designing Solutions for Life Situations". The Federal Center for Competence in Employment has also joined the project: priority areas of work concern issues of employment of citizens returning from the SVO zone and their family members, as well as employment of young people – graduates of secondary specialized educational institutions and universities.

After the training, a solution accelerator is planned for three and a half months, then – the defense of projects before the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia and their testing at the MFC in the regions. ASI and the State Corporation Rosatom provide methodological support for solutions. Some regions have already successfully launched their practices. Among them are solutions related to assistance to participants of the SVO, families with children and people with disabilities.

Published business program International Forum "Islands of Sustainable Development: Climate Aspect", which will be held in Sakhalin Oblast on August 1-2. The event will be held as a visiting venue of the Eastern Economic Forum. The operator is the Roscongress Foundation.

"We are confident that the forum will become a platform for strategic dialogue on climate policy and a low-carbon future. Here we will discuss specific steps towards carbon neutrality and prospects for the Russian economy. Participants will see that "growth islands" are not a theory, but real projects in the economy, ecology and social sphere that comply with the principles of sustainable development, ESG standards and the UN Goals. Sakhalin Oblast is strengthening its leadership in this area in order to contribute to the achievement of national priorities," emphasized Sakhalin Oblast Governor Valery Limarenko.

The key event will be the plenary session "Russia – on the way to a low-carbon future". Its main topics include carbon regulation, the creation of a national system for monitoring climate-active substances, harmonization of approaches to the implementation of national environmental policies of the EAEU, SCO and BRICS states, and others. The forum will also include more than 10 business events dedicated to climate projects and adaptation to climate change, "green" energy, international scientific cooperation, interaction on environmental issues within the framework of integration associations, and other issues. Particular attention will be paid to the implementation of the Sakhalin climate experiment to achieve a carbon balance of greenhouse gas emissions and absorption.

The forum will be attended by the Assistant to the President of the Russian Federation, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation on Climate Issues Ruslan Edelgeriev; the Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Maxim Reshetnikov; the Director of the Institute of Global Climate and Ecology named after Academician Yuri Izrael (IGCE) Anna Romanovskaya; representatives of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, the state corporation VEB.RF and the ANO "Agency for Strategic Initiatives to Promote New Projects", as well as representatives of large Russian businesses, the scientific community, development institutions, entrepreneurs and experts from Russia, India, China, South Africa and other countries.

"The forum platform is a great opportunity to exchange experience of effective solutions for implementing low-carbon development measures in the regions. Sakhalin's experience may be in demand by other subjects of the country. The assessment of the Sakhalin climate experiment will help us understand how to further build the Russian system for regulating greenhouse gas emissions. It is important that other subjects of the Russian Federation are actively involved in implementing the Low-Carbon Development Strategy approved by the President," said Maxim Reshetnikov, Minister of Economic Development of Russia.

The forum will also include a meeting of the State Council of the Russian Federation Commission on Investments on the topic of Low-carbon development and climate investment: how to combine ecology and economics, and an extended meeting of the National Hydrogen Union.

In addition, exhibitions of unmanned systems, equipment for hydrogen energy and environmentally friendly transport will be organized on the site of the new Sakhalin-Expo complex at the Pushisty drone port during the event. There will also be a drone race, a fair of paintings by Sakhalin artists, a demonstration of products from Sakhalin Oblast enterprises and various cultural events.

The Ecology situation center will operate, where modern technologies for environmental monitoring and rapid response to environmental situations will be presented. Particular attention will be paid to the use of drones and stationary cameras to identify violations of environmental legislation, including monitoring the state of forests, rivers and the atmosphere.

"Holding the Forum at the new Sakhalin Expo site as an off-site venue for the Eastern Economic Forum underlines the growing role of the Sakhalin Region as a center for innovation in environmental issues and a platform for international dialogue. This not only strengthens the region's position in implementing low-carbon initiatives, such as the Sakhalin Climate Experiment, but also creates new opportunities for attracting investment, technology, and expertise in the field of green energy and sustainable development. I am convinced that the Forum will be an important step in integrating the environmental and economic priorities of the Far East into the global climate agenda," said Igor Pavlov, First Deputy CEO of the Roscongress Foundation and Director of the Eastern Economic Forum.

The carbon footprint of the forum will be offset by SIBUR. This will be possible thanks to units from the climate project at the SIBUR-Neftekhim enterprise.

"As part of our long-term cooperation with the Roscongress Foundation, carbon-neutral status has been granted to such events as the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, the Eastern Economic Forum and others. Reducing the carbon footprint of the "Islands of Sustainable Development: Climate Aspect" forum is an environmentally significant initiative for both the organizer and the region. SIBUR is already working on decarbonizing the Sakhalin Region. For example, SIBUR is helping the region replace outdated elements of the housing and utilities infrastructure with modern energy-efficient polymer solutions. In addition, thanks to SIBUR's carbon units, several enterprises participating in the Sakhalin experiment have already been able to comply with the region's allocated quotas for greenhouse gas emissions," said Ruslan Khairullin, Director of the Engineering and Road Infrastructure Division at SIBUR.

The integrated system, which includes My Business centers, regional guarantee organizations, state microfinance organizations and export support centers, continues to effectively fulfill the task of supporting entrepreneurs at all stages of their business development – from starting a business to entering international markets.

"The SME support infrastructure is a multi-level ecosystem that allows businesses to receive the necessary assistance at different stages of the life cycle. In the first half of 2025, more than 135 thousand entrepreneurs across the country received such support. This is the result of systematic work to create accessible, targeted and effective assistance to businesses, including in the most remote regions," emphasized Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Tatyana Ilyushnikova.

Conventionally, the work of the My Business Centers can be divided into two areas. The first is working with existing entrepreneurs, providing opportunities for business growth and scaling. The second is working with priority groups to involve them in entrepreneurial activity: youth, women, people of "silver" age, participants of the SVO.

The My Business centers act as a single window for entrepreneurs, providing information, consulting and training services, assistance in registering a business, preparing business plans and receiving government support measures. Today, the Centers operate in 88 regions (Moscow entrepreneurs receive support from the State Budgetary Institution Small Business of Moscow), with more than 400 branches open.

"In 2025, regional export support centers will retain their key role in our ecosystem, actively supporting small and medium businesses. Their effectiveness is confirmed by specific results: in the first half of the year, the ESCs provided almost 7 thousand information and consulting services and support measures, thanks to which about 500 companies signed new export contracts for a total of more than $130 million. Our main goal is to simplify as much as possible for manufacturers to enter foreign markets and strengthen their positions. We pay special attention to the development of interregional cooperation: five such projects are already underway. We are convinced that this is the key to sustainable development and effective exchange of experience," emphasized Veronika Nikishina, General Director of the Russian Export Center (REC, VEB.RF Group).

Among the most popular areas of support provided by the My Business Centers, consulting support occupies a special place. Competent expert assistance is relevant for entrepreneurs at all stages of development – from launching a project to scaling it. The second position in popularity is occupied by services that facilitate the promotion of products and the search for new clients: this includes the development of digital communication channels, including social networks and websites, and participation in exhibitions and fairs, and the creation of a corporate style. Educational initiatives round out the top three. Despite wide access to information, entrepreneurs and the self-employed still need proven, practice-oriented knowledge adapted to specific stages of their business development.

Regional guarantee organizations provide SMEs with access to banking and other borrowed financing by providing guarantees for loans and leasing transactions, thereby reducing risks for financial institutions and expanding opportunities for entrepreneurs.

State microfinance organizations provide microloans on preferential terms, which is especially important given the increased key rate of the Bank of Russia.

Thus, in the Kirov region alone, small and medium businesses attracted 509.5 million rubles in the first half of 2025.

"Preferential loans are open to a wide range of entrepreneurs, including beginners and those who are in a difficult financial situation. The My Business Center offers 18 microfinance programs. Since the beginning of the year, we have provided financial support to about 300 entrepreneurs, of which 28 are beginners and six loans were received by self-employed people," commented Vladimir Skobelkin, director of the My Business Center of the Kirov Region.

Export support centers help Russian companies enter foreign markets by assisting in the preparation of export documentation, selection of foreign partners, participation in international exhibitions and promotion of products abroad.

An integrated approach and close interaction of all elements of the infrastructure make it possible to create a comfortable environment for the sustainable growth and development of Russian entrepreneurship.

Most of the support instruments are implemented under the national project “Efficient and Competitive Economy”.

On July 24, the National Center "Russia" hosted the seventh Eurasian Aerospace Congress, a key business event in the aerospace industry. This is an annual industry forum reflecting the unity of economic interests of Russia and international partners in the aerospace sector. This year, the event brought together more than 700 delegates from 20 countries representing various segments of the space ecosystem.

The Department of Multilateral Economic Cooperation and Special Projects of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia organized two sessions within the framework of the Congress. One of them — "B2B Partnership: Holdings and Private Space Companies" — became a platform for presenting products of private export-oriented space companies of Russia to potential customers and investors.

"We brought together nine space companies with varying degrees of technological maturity, different product lines and their potential partners, including Sber, Russian Railways, Rosatom, Promsvyazbank, VEB.RF, in one room," commented Deputy Director of the Department Evgeniya Drozhashchikh. "Such B2B matchmaking, in our opinion, could become one of the answers to the task of attracting extra-budgetary financing to the industry in the coming years." According to her, despite the fact that up to 70% of the total volume of global investments in space companies comes from venture capital, a more advantageous strategy for companies is to diversify their sources of financing and expand their sales markets, including within the country. "Of course, the value proposition must correspond to the customer's request. And, no less importantly, to national technological priorities," added Evgeniya Drozhashchikh.

The session "International Cooperation in Space Activities and Commercialization of Space Services" was attended by more than 10 speakers from the BRICS countries – Russia, Brazil, India, Indonesia, the UAE and Belarus as a partner country. Representatives of international organizations, the public and private sectors, platforms providing infrastructure for the implementation of space projects, exchanged assessments of promising areas and mechanisms of multilateral cooperation. Particular attention was paid to the role of public-private partnerships in achieving national space goals and the possible appearance of the industry by 2035.

The first deputy chairman of the committee on economic policy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation Denis Kravchenko addressed the participants of the session with a welcoming speech. "Among BRICS and SCO, there are two key member countries with advanced technologies. And a third one, which is catching up with them. Of course, these are Russia, China and India. A number of African countries already have their own space agencies. In this regard, I am sure that there is enough work for everyone," he said.

Among the current areas of cooperation, Denis Kravchenko identified the development of near-earth orbit, including the development of joint multi-satellite constellations and the development of distant space frontiers, taking into account the complementarity of the space potential of the BRICS countries. The participants of the session agreed that space products are becoming an integral part of an effective and competitive economy, and expressed their readiness to continue cooperation in line with the agreements of the leaders of the BRICS countries.

"The declaration following the BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro this year emphasized the importance of strengthening the exchange of data, experience and best practices in the field of space activities. Our international session became one of the practical steps to build up the mutual potential of the countries of the association. We plan to conduct an audit of what was heard and, together with the speakers, form a set of common conclusions and recommendations for possible consideration on the specialized track," concluded Evgeniya Drozhashchikh.

State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Alexey Khersontsev congratulated the specialists of the My Documents government services centers on their professional holiday – MFC Employee Day.

In particular, he noted that for many years, MFCs have remained a shining example of effective interaction between the state and the individual, combining high standards of comfort and accessibility of state and municipal services, related services and services. This is largely due to the high level of professionalism and responsible approach to the work of the center's specialists.

"Today, MFC is not just a recognizable name and logo, modern centers designed in a single style. First of all, MFC is a strong and close-knit team of dedicated professionals who daily provide comfortable public services to thousands of Russians. Together with you, we created a network of MFCs and continue to improve it. Together with you, we quickly expanded the MFC network in new regions. Together with you, we continue to work hard to ensure quick solutions to life situations of Russians," said Alexey Khersontsev.

MFCs of Russia retain their leadership in the use of modern technologies. Social media services, biometrics-based applicant services, new services, regional projects – all this sets the prospects for further implementation of innovations. The implementation of socially significant initiatives is also one of the key aspects of the MFC work.

"Thanks to the coordinated work of federal authorities and government service centers, it has become possible to obtain a certificate confirming participation in a special military operation in the shortest possible time in the MFCs of all regions. Currently, a pilot project is being implemented in the MFCs of a number of Russian regions to obtain several support measures for military personnel within the framework of a comprehensive request. In your desire to provide the necessary support to those who need it most, we see your sincere interest, and we express our deep gratitude," Kirill Albychev, Director of the Department for Ensuring the Quality of Public Services to the Population and the Performance of Government Functions, addressed the MFC specialists.

The results of four years of work to reduce the time for issuing licenses, permits and the number of required documents, convert permits into electronic form and other simplifications for businesses and citizens are enshrined in amendments to the relevant federal laws. The bill was developed by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia on the instructions of Deputy Chairman – Head of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko. Today, the Federation Council approved these amendments.

"The government is creating conditions for comfortable business in Russia. Optimizing the process of obtaining permits is an important part of this work. We have digitalized the entire procedure – from filing an application to issuing the permit itself. We have established interdepartmental cooperation so that the state does not request documents from an entrepreneur that are at the disposal of government agencies. This approach has allowed us to halve the number of requested documents and the time it takes to obtain a permit. At the same time, the requirements for organizations and individuals themselves remain at the same level," commented Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko.

According to the State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Alexey Khersontsev, as a result of the implementation of this legislative initiative, 69 federal laws in various areas have been adjusted. It is important to note that the optimization of those government services that have shown positive results and for which it has been possible to obtain confirmation in practice that permits can be provided in a shorter time frame and with a smaller package of documents for the applicant is being consolidated. Such services are included in the law.

"When finalizing the bill at the State Duma with the participation of industry departments and businesses, in particular, the number of types of licenses and permits affected by optimization was expanded. These are permit regimes in the areas of transport, construction, nature management and environmental protection, industrial safety, education, communications, tourism, accreditation of legal entities," explained Alexey Khersontsev, adding that we are talking about areas in demand by businesses and citizens. At the same time, about 9.5 million applications for experimental services were received in 2024 alone.

The law also forms a list of tools with which the experiment was implemented. Firstly, this is a comprehensive application. With its help, you can apply for several permits at once by submitting one application on the Unified State Services Portal. For example, the "Opening a Pharmacy" complex is already available. By the end of the year, it is planned to make about 20 more comprehensive applications available to businesses.

Secondly, the mechanisms of interdepartmental information exchange are being improved. At the stage of preparing applications to the permitting authority on the Unified State Services portal, the necessary information is automatically pulled up and after the application is sent, it is also forwarded to the authority. Since May 2025, such functionality has been tested by Rosreestr when requesting an extract from the Unified State Register.

The bill also develops a mechanism for proactive work between the state and business, noted Alexey Khersontsev.

"The proactive mode is when the systems of the Unified State Services portal remind businesses and citizens of the need to renew permits and automatically send a pre-filled application for their registration – taking into account the current information from other state systems.
