Subject The article deals with the issues of public support to small and medium-sized businesses in Russian regions.
Objectives The objective of the article is to determine directions of optimization of public policies to support small and medium-sized enterprises.
Methods For the study, we used logical, structural, comparative research methods, grouping and economic-statistical analysis methods. We used the data of State support recipient registers for 2011–2014 to analyze the volume, dynamics and structure of support to small and medium-sized enterprises of the Sverdlovsk oblast by the regional authorities.
Results Considering a regional policy model to support small and medium-sized businesses, we analyzed the results of support implementation for 2011–2014 and identified the financial instruments trends to support entrepreneurship. As well, we identified current challenges of formation and development of small and medium-sized enterprises.
Conclusions We conclude that at present, it is advisable to extend the practice of providing financial assistance to small and medium-sized enterprises through repayable forms of financing like soft loans, granting sureties and guarantees. This requires institutional environment and the provision of assistance at the expense of guarantee funds, non-profit organizations, and attract private investors. A promising trend to support small and medium-sized enterprises is to enhance their participation in the implementation of government and public corporations orders.
