Addressing Disproportions in the Region as a Basis for Development of Entrepreneurial Activity
Abstract
The article explores the manifestations of asymmetry as a reflection of the existing disproportions of socio-economic development of the country and the region. It is proved that existing forms of disproportions (asymmetries) have both the objective and the subjective nature of manifestation, as well as an appropriate influence on the asymmetry of spatial development. The factors of comprehensive influence that cause deepening of interregional asymmetries in the current conditions are researched. It is emphasized that the formation of socio-economic policy at the territorial level should be carried out on the basis of a differentiated approach in accordance with the status and conditions of functioning of region, the peculiarities of implementation of entrepreneurial activity. Existing approaches to the detection of disproportions (asymmetries) are analyzed, which differ in the systems of the indicators used and the methodology of defining interregional and intersectoral deformations of regional development. It is determined that the ratio between the maximum and the minimum values of the socio-economic indicators of the region’s development helps to define the level of regional socio-economic disproportions. To research asymmetric processes in the regions, it is proposed to use relative indicators that are more substantial, deeper and more significative, as well as more fully reflect the underlying signs of differentiation, taking into account the results of entrepreneurial activity. It is specified that financial alignment is needed to smooth the development asymmetry. It is necessary to align the financial capabilities of territories, starting from the economic, social, environmental and demographic status of the corresponding region, the activity of entrepreneurial activity entities on the basis of setting real standards of their budgetary provision.
