Regional Budget 2026 Presented: Balanced Despite Shifting Revenues and Expenditures
The regional budget for 2026 has been presented, with planned revenues of 294 billion rubles and expenditures set at 316 billion rubles. The 'zero reading' of the budget was recently held by regional legislators and officials.
Compared to previous years, the 2026 budget shows a shift in financial projections. Revenues are expected to be lower than in 2024, while expenditures are planned to be higher. However, a comparison with the 2025 budget reveals a different trend: expenditures are lower, and revenues are higher. Despite these changes, the 2026 budget is balanced, with a deficit accounted for.
Social obligations remain a key focus, with over 60% of all planned expenditures dedicated to these areas.
The 2026 regional budget, with its balanced nature and focus on social obligations, has been presented and discussed. The next steps in the budget process will determine how these plans translate into action.
