Abstract

The article describes the current state of small business development prospects and problems in Russia and, in particular, some aspects of small business development in Primorsky Krai and the city of Vladivostok. The article analyzes the main economic indicators of small enterprise activity in Russia. The analysis of small enterprise state allows us to conclude that, small businesses have incentives for their development despite significant changes in the external environment, which make an ambiguous impact on the activities of small businesses, and an unstable economic situation in the country. Despite the general reduction of small enterprise number in Russian Federation, the number of employees, the level of wages has increased insignificantly among the workers of small enterprises, and the turnover of small enterprises has also increased both in Russia as a whole and in small enterprises of Primorsky Krai. However, some of the problems that prevent the full-fledged development of small business continue to be unresolved. Understanding the prospects and the trends of small business development, as well as the solution of the problems limiting its development, is of great importance for the development of Russia and in particular for the development of the region strategic potential.
