Аrticle «Territory of financial leases: clusters of post-crisis growth»

The article published in the journal "Statistical Issues" (No 10, 2012). The authors, L. Kitrar and G. Ostapkovich (HSE ISSEK), analyze the situation in the leasing market in 2011.

One of the issues most discussed currently by the economic expert community is the transition of the Russian economy to a new growth model, involving higher levels of competition and economic activity and the creation of an appropriate investment climate. To achieve these objectives, it is necessary to significantly improve the system of economic relations between financial institutions and enterprises of the real economy, using appropriate financial and credit tools.

One of these tools is the financial lease widely adopted in the world economic practice which is however still in insufficiently active use in the Russian economy.
