Abstract

In terms of a high value at external and internal environment risk of Russian small and medium-sized enterprises and the expediency of their organized interaction in the form of public associations, the authors analyzed the progressive activities of similar associations in Germany. In order to identify comparable problems and adapt German approaches to Russian reality, the study was carried out both at the regional level (the Samara region in Russia and the Baden-Wurttemberg region in Germany), and with respect to municipalities (the cities of Samara and Stuttgart). In the course of the study, the authors assessed the legal framework for state support of small and medium-sized enterprises in the countries under research, taking into account their importance in the national economy. A special attention is paid to the legitimate functioning of public associations under consideration, to qualitative features of the organizational structure of institutions representing the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises. To carry out a comparative analysis of the surveyed public associations’ performance in Russia and Germany, the authors considered their authority, the types of support provided and the tools used for this purpose. The study is based on the documentary analysis and results of a survey of representatives of public associations, as well as government agencies supporting small and medium-sized enterprises in Russia and Germany.
