Help for small businesses: organizational system support + 4 detailed options.

A small deed that gives its owner financial independence- the dream of everyone who does not want to work for his uncle.

Unfortunately, not everyone can boast of having a decent amount on their account to start a planned project.

Of course, there is always a way. In this case, there are several of them - to be patient and earn capital, to take a loan or loan from relatives / friends / acquaintances,.

But there is also an option like small business assistance which is of several types.

So, today we will talk about how our state supports the development of beginners and experienced entrepreneurs.

State assistance to small businesses: an organizational system for supporting entrepreneurs

The main regulatory act, which must be relied upon in matters of our article, is The federal law No. 209 "On the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation".

Its full text can be found by clicking on the link: https://www.consultant.ru/document/cons_doc_LAW_52144

Also, each region has its own body, which is responsible for the implementation of measures to help entrepreneurs.

A complete list of them is available on the official website of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation in the "Small Business" section: https://economy.gov.ru/minec/activity/sections/smallBusiness

Why is it important to support entrepreneurs?

So, in Russia, only thanks to small and medium-sized businesses, more than 16 million citizens are provided with jobs (and this is a quarter of the entire employed population).

In addition, 20% of GDP is accounted for by SMEs, although in the world this figure is close to 35%, so we have room to strive.

The role of SMEs in the economy of the whole country is very significant. Briefly describe its importance:

  • creation of new jobs;
  • formation of healthy competition in the market and adequate pricing for goods and services;
  • revenues to the budgets of all levels;
  • filling those niches where it cannot fit big business(providing household services population, small wholesale, marketing).

But owners of small and medium-sized businesses have to constantly face problems and difficulties:

  • economic instability in the country;
  • flaw financial resources both for opening and for developing a business;
  • a large tax burden and the complexity of compiling financial statements;
  • constant changes in legislation;
  • shortage of staff qualified specialists prefer to work for "sharks" of business, ignoring entrepreneurs);
  • difficulty in obtaining loans (not every bank wants to deal with a small business).

Agree, not every experienced businessman will be able to withstand the difficulties described above, what can we say about beginners.

That is why the state should provide assistance to entrepreneurs.

In 2016, more than 11 billion rubles were allocated from the Russian budget to support SMEs.

But, unfortunately, the amount of assistance to small businesses from the state tends to decrease.

So, in 2014, about 20 billion rubles were allocated to support SMEs, and already in 2015 - 17 billion. In 2016, it was planned to provide financial assistance in the amount of almost 15 billion from the federal budget, but in fact it turned out to be 11 billion.

In 2017, this downward trend financial assistance is saved. The state is ready to provide only 7.5 billion rubles.

Therefore, those who rely on it will have to make a lot of efforts to get it.

The structure of spending on helping small businesses in 2017 looks like this:

ExpensesAmount, billion
Education infrastructure for SME development 3,06
Measures to support single-industry municipalities0,74
Creation and development of information and consulting support0,72
Creation of an infrastructure to support SMEs operating in the field of innovation and industrial production0,69
Completion of capital construction projects1,6
Promoting the development of youth entrepreneurship0,23
Creation of multifunctional business centers
0,135

We have figured out the facts and figures, but what is the assistance to small businesses from the state?

So, there are such forms of support for SMEs:

  • financial - providing financial resources for the opening and development of small businesses (compensations, subsidies, grants, soft loans);
  • property - providing entrepreneurs with state property on the rights of use ( land, industrial premises);
  • information and consulting- formation information systems, as well as free consultations about doing business (trainings, seminars, courses);
  • infrastructural- formation of comfortable conditions for doing business, as well as the creation of business incubators, multi-purpose funds, centers of entrepreneurs;
  • organizational- assistance in participation in exhibition events and fairs.
