The growth of tax revenues from individuals to the budget of the Sverdlovsk region indicates the effectiveness of the implementation of the agreement between the Sverdlovsk Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (SOSPP), the government of the Sverdlovsk region and the regional Federation of Trade Unions, as well as the execution of the May decrees of the President of the Russian Federation. This opinion was expressed by Marina Vshivtseva, the vice president of SOSPP, after the press conference of the governor Yevgeny Kuyvashev, who, responding to a question from journalists, noted a significant increase in tax revenues of the regional treasury.

"And in 2014, and in 2015, and in 2016, we grew almost 3%. And in 2017, income from individuals increased by 7%. These are serious figures. If we are talking about the personal income tax, this is the salary, of course. And there are property taxes: this is real estate, land, vehicles. We have growth every year, "said Evgeny Kuyvashev.

These indicators in the union are associated with several factors.

"Firstly, it is worth noting the effectiveness of the tripartite agreement between the government of the Sverdlovsk region, SOSPP and the Federation of Trade Unions, one of the key sections of which was the regulation of wages at enterprises. Secondly, this is the execution of the May decrees of the President of the Russian Federation, thanks to which the remuneration of workers in the budgetary sphere is consistently increased, "notes Vshivtseva.

According to her, a survey conducted by the Association of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of the region showed that most of them optimistically evaluated their prospects for 2018 and feel the economic growth of the Sverdlovsk region.

"For the first time since 2014, according to the polls of our respondents, the need to attract new personnel to the enterprises. It is important that one of the expected actions of the government for the development of the region's economy will be the implementation of the Five-Year Development Program,.

"Indeed, the welfare of the people of the Sverdlovsk region is growing. The salary increases - the volume of personal income tax increases.

The number of property of citizens increases - income on property taxes. There are a number of other factors that also affect these processes. So the enterprises switch to a "white" salary, which means that, in particular, they make compulsory payments, including taxes. I believe that this is primarily a result of the state policy to stimulate business to go "out of the shadows", - said Elena Knyazeva, Head of the Department of Finance, Money and Credit, UrFU, Professor of Economics,.
