"Regional separatism" appears in Russia. More and more constituent territories of the federation start to introduce restrictions on the imported goods from other regions. Restrictions on imported dairy production in the Nizhniy Novgorod area were introduced some days ago. It is problematic for outsider manufacturers of meat production to enter the markets of the Krasnodar region . Manufacturers of vodka production complain that Tatarstan authorities don’t let them penetrate into the local market using various bureaucratic formalities. According to independent experts, next months more than half of Russian regions can introduce various restrictions on the goods "from the outside". The region or republic in the conditions of decrease of financial help from the federal centre will carry out their own closed models of money and production movement. This mechanism was present in the Russian market in the pre-crisis period, but was not popular. "In most cases precedents of restrictions (if to distract from a possible corruption component) are caused by the taxation specificity and, agreealy, fiscal charges of different levels. Also they can be connected with lobbist actions of the local manufacturers trying thus to protect their own distribution areas", - explains Maxim Kljagin, analyst at management company Finam Management. According to his words, in the near prospect interdictions and restrictions can promote some strengthening of positions of local players, i.e. positively affect economy of regions. However this situation can’t be positive as unreasonable restriction of competition in the long term does not lead to positive results. "Efficiency of various manufactures in different regions qualitatively differs depending on, first of all, manufacture factors. Finally artificial restrictions can lead to disbalance, deficiency and negative tendencies in pricing", - concludes the analyst. Experts of federal antimonopoly service consider that local authorities violate some legislative norms. In most cases similar practice is illegitimate and leads to "regional separatism". It implies artificial barriers and restrictions which, as a rule, are created by local authorities not without participation of local manufacturers. Objectively more competitive outsider trade marks cannot find their own sale markets. Federal Antimonopoly Service experts admit it’s difficult at the moment to influence the regions closing their borders.
