Abstract

The purpose of the article is to assess the impact of the structure of government spending on economic growth in the regions of Russia. The growth rate of the gross regional product (GRP) in real terms is used as an indicator of economic growth. For econometric modeling, the group average method is used. Although in general the issue of the impact of certain categories of public spending remains debatable, empirical results show that government spending on health care and sports are the long-term drivers of economic growth in the regions. Meanwhile, for regions with GRP per capita lower than average, spending on education and the media has a noticeable and positive effect. On the basis of the results obtained, practical recommendations for improving the regional policy are formulated.
