Abstract

In the article the Russian experience of formation of tariff policy for subjects of natural monopolies (further - NM) during 2013-2016 and its main consequences for economy is considered. Considering the influence the natural monopoly branches in the Russian economy observed within the entire period of its existence, the tariff policy in these branches exerts not only direct impact on the enterprises in these branches, in particular, on their investment and personnel policy, but also significant indirect effect on other industrial branches which are consumers of goods of subjects NM. The author shows in the present article that the tariff of natural monopolies can be used as the tool of industrial policy, however, efficiency of its use depends on creation or development of additional market incentives which would allow to increase competitiveness of the industrial enterprises, but not to use the low prices of goods and services of natural monopolies for subsidizing of own inefficiency.
