Subject The article considers the main areas of State financing of social support measures to families with children in the Russian Federation that are reported in statements of revenues and expenditures of the Russian budgetary system.
Objectives The aim of the study is to analyze the mechanisms of funding the social benefits to families with children and identify priorities to enhance the efficiency of budgetary expenses for vulnerable social groups support.
Methods The study rests on the publicly available data and employs econometric methods and tools.
Results We analyzed the efficiency of certain social benefits to families with children, which are financed through the Federal budget and consolidated budget of the Russian Federation.
Conclusions Currently, information systems containing information on measures of social support to families with children, the number of beneficiaries, amounts and forms of benefits and budget expenses for this type of social benefits are not centralized, use different programs and different forms of data presentation. These information systems include, inter alia, systems of the Federal State Statistics Service, Federal Treasury, Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, Social Insurance Fund of the Russian Federation, regional executive authorities. As a result, it is hard to obtain information enabling to assess the volume, effectiveness and efficiency of measures of social support to families with children, including from the standpoint of budgetary efficiency. Our analysis allows formulating a number of important practical conclusions.
