Abstract

In recent years, Russia will experience intensive growth of domestic tourist flow. The infrastructure support is of great importance for development and increasing attractiveness of tourist destinations. In the process of implementation of tourist activities, both general regional and specific tourist infrastructure is used. Currently, in the Russian Federation, there is uneven development of tourist infrastructure in the regions and individual cities of the country, which determined the relevance of studying the problem of the effectiveness of using budget funds aimed at its development. The purpose of the article was to assess the effectiveness of using federal budget funds and other resources aimed at creating tourist infrastructure in Russia. The research methods were the traditional analysis of scientific literature, legislative and other regulatory acts, reports of departmental organizations, analysis of statistical information on the research problem, comparison, generalization. The hypothesis of the study was to test the assumption that there is a direct positive relationship between the volume of state financial support aimed at the development of tourist infrastructure and the growth of tourist flow. The obtained results allowed the author to state the insufficiently effective execution of budget funds for the development of tourist infrastructure in the Russian Federation. The conducted analysis of statistical data also revealed regional disproportions in the use of federal budget funds aimed at creating tourist infrastructure in the Russian Federation.
