The Ministry of Finance of the Nizhny Novgorod Region has planned to place a bond issue worth 10 billion rubles in the second half of this year. The term of its placement may range from five to seven years; the decision will be made in the event of favorable market conditions and the need to raise funds. Everything would be fine, but this loan will be the 14th for the regional government.

The last loan is for 10 billion rubles. was placed in November last year, and the total amount of public debt is 75.09 billion rubles. This is already more than half of the total budget revenues of the Nizhny Novgorod region, but if the government of the android technocrat (as some locals call him) Gleb Nikitin continues in the same spirit, then by the end of his term the region may well become bankrupt. Why Nikitin gets into debt, the correspondent tried to understand The Moscow Post .

Loans and bonds

The share of securities in the structure of public debt of the Nizhny Novgorod region as of January 1, 2019 is 56.9% (RUB 42.7 billion). 26.6% comes from budget loans (RUB 19.9 billion), 16.3% from commercial bank loans (RUB 12.2 billion).

The region’s budget for 2019 was adopted with a surplus of 100 million rubles. The volume of income was formed at the level of 141.6 billion rubles, expenses were predicted at 141.5 billion rubles. And about. The head of the regional Ministry of Finance, Olga Sulima, assured journalists at the end of last year that such parameters would reduce the public debt in 2018 by 1.5 billion rubles.

And now, not even a month has passed, and the regional government intends to increase the national debt by 10 billion rubles at once. In the second half of 2019, the authorities of the Nizhny Novgorod region want to place a bond issue for the corresponding amount. The last such loan was placed just three months ago, there are currently 13 of them in total. It seems that the government of Gleb Nikitin is trying with all its might to drive the Nizhny Novgorod region into a debt hole. In recent years, despite all the statements of the authorities, the state debt has been reduced slightly and amounts to about 70 billion rubles.

Games on a budget

The media report, in particular, “ Version “that recently the budget of the Nizhny Novgorod region has become like a wizard’s game: in a couple of months the surplus has grown by several billion rubles. At the same time, the Ministry of Finance promises that in 2019 there will be a period of a balanced budget (as mentioned above, the surplus will be 100 million rubles), and 2020 will mark a return to surplus miracles. Residents of the region will not remember such manipulations with numbers even during the time of the odious governor Valery Shantsev.

In 2017, when an “android” was appointed to the post of acting governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region (as he was nicknamed along with the heads of regions Dmitry Azarov and Alexander Burkov for his fantastic similarity, he wrote about it The Moscow Post , the regional government was cautious and “pictured” the budget surplus for the coming years within hundreds of millions.

The Nizhny Novgorod government cannot or does not want to “reconcile debit with credit”?

For 2020 alone, this figure was predicted to be 1.7 billion rubles. However, in 2018, Nizhny Novgorod hosted the World Cup matches, and as a result, the budget surplus amounted to 4.18 billion rubles. Then the officials seemed to “cheat” with the numbers, and the surplus grew by 6 billion rubles in one day. up to 11.2 billion rubles.

It would seem that the Ministry of Finance had the opportunity to reduce the national debt through a surplus, but this was not done. Moreover, the size of the national debt has only increased by several billion rubles. Where did the money go? Apparently, you need to ask Gleb Nikitin. You will have to answer, if not now, then when the Nizhny Novgorod region reaches virtual bankruptcy: the state debt is not being paid off, despite the multi-billion dollar surplus, but is only growing. Moreover, the regional government has gotten into the habit of issuing bond issues. What is Nikitin's goal as governor? Make it a “feeding trough” for yourself and your immediate environment?

Is the governor “crushing” the region for himself?

Gleb Nikitin’s plans for the Nizhny Novgorod region are, presumably, serious. One gets the impression that he “entered” the region seriously and for a long time. Last year " Documents and Facts “wrote that the governor decided to “crush” the entire region under himself, returning to a single-headed system of local self-government in a number of areas.

Nikitin’s creatures are appointed heads of municipalities. Apparently, he wanted to place “his” people in key territories so that they would ensure, firstly, an acceptable result in the elections (this is a kind of guarantee for Nikitin to stay in office), and secondly, so that they would probably control the money streams.

Well, in fact, this adventure will most likely result in the fact that there will be more ineffective municipalities in the Nizhny Novgorod region than there were under Nikitin’s odious predecessor Valery Shantsev. For the current governor, according to information The Moscow Post , numerous complaints are already being received from angry Nizhny Novgorod residents. And the redistribution of power and business began back in 2017 with the symbolic detention of the former mayor of Nizhny Novgorod Oleg Sorokin for a bribe. Last year, Gleb Nikitin was initially not elected to the board of directors of PJSC GAZ, after which the board of directors was re-elected.

Gleb Nikitin receives many complaints from dissatisfied Nizhny Novgorod residents

According to rumors, it was important for Nikitin to join the management of the enterprise in order to ensure the unification of the entire automotive industry in Russia under the wing of the head of Rostec, Sergei Chemezov. This state corporation, together with Rosatom, is the most influential structure in the Nizhny Novgorod region. It is possible that Nikitin was promised something for his efforts for such a “big cause”.

Passive Governor

As you can see, Gleb Nikitin started right off the bat in Nizhny Novgorod, and by the end of last year he began to “fade out”. Local media notice that the activity of the head of the region has decreased significantly. Did he really put everyone in their place and resolve all financial issues, including those related to personal enrichment? As if the 14th bond issue would not be the last for the Nikitin government. Incompetent (or selfish?) management of public finances must be punished.
