Counterpart Financing in Russia: Conducting an Experiment on the Establishment of the Special Regulation

Abstract

The article provides a comparative legal analysis of the provisions of the Federal Law “On conducting an experiment to establish special regulation in order to create the necessary conditions for implementing partnership financing activities in Certain Subjects of the Russian Federation and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation” and the initial draft this law, introduced to the State Duma of the Russian Federation by a group of deputies and senators. Attention is drawn to the insufficient regulation of partnership financing relations, and it is concluded that a number of provisions of the draft federal law were more precise and definite in their content compared to the adopted federal law. When analyzing the provisions of the adopted federal law, obvious contradictions in its content, duplication, as well as systemic inconsistency of the regulatory material were revealed.
