Abstract

The paper evaluates the outcomes of state regulatory and law enforcement reforms from the perspective of Russian private businesses. The analysis is based on the outcomes of representative sociological surveys of private businesses conducted by RANEPA in 2017, 2020, and 2021. The research demonstrates that so far, the reforms have not influenced business perceptions of adequacy and easiness of compliance with mandatory regulatory requirements. While perceptions of individual entrepreneurs have somewhat improved, the representatives of medium and large businesses more often point out the excessive nature of state regulations. Some 44.8 percent of survey respondents noted that regulatory related costs have grown for the past year. The ratio of businesses recognizing positive impact of regulatory enforcement activities has dropped compared to the base level at the outset of the reform. Noteworthy, private businesses find many areas envisaged by the reforms relevant. The fact that some 60.2 percent of businesses express trust in regulatory enforcement and inspection bodies provides some grounds for hope that further reforms may be more successful.
