Abstract
Aim. We study the situation related to the development and existence of small and mediumsized businesses in the Siberian Federal District, where more than 36% of the economically active local population is employed in this sector of the economy
Methodology. The official data on the state of small and medium-sized businesses for 2000– 2022 served as information basis of the study. The paper gives an assessment of the institutional environment of entrepreneurship. Both statistical and descriptive methods were used in the work.
Results. The main reasons hindering the development of small and medium-sized businesses in Russia were identified. The characteristic of a situation with small enterprises of the Siberian Federal District for a number of years is given. It is noted that the state policy of supporting small business in the country is weakly aimed at regulating and supporting this sector of the economy, which directly affects the closure of small businesses and leads to job cuts.
Research implications. The study identified the main problems that hinder the full development of this sector of economy. The significance of the work lies in the fact that it made it possible to quite objectively reflect the state of small and medium-sized businesses in the Siberian Federal District in recent years.
