Abstract

The article analyses farms' access to credit and other financial institutions in Russia. Some government policies that have a bearing on the main financial issues of the farm sector are examined. These include policies relating to debt restructuring, subsidised credit and investment support. Farms' access to credit is analysed at both sector level and for the sample of 144 farms from Rostov, Ivanovo and Nizhni Novgorod oblasts, applying the discreet regression analysis. The findings caution against generalizing the conventional financial patterns of market economies to transition countries.
