Abstract

It is determined here, вased on the study of theoretical aspects of the heterogeneity problem of the Russian Federation and research materials on this topic, that the country’s economic space homogeneity can be provided by functionally literate people, in particular, the population with a high level of digital and financial literacy. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the financial and digital literacy level of the population on the economic space homogeneity of the Russian Federation. The research methodology includes a formal logical method, an aggregation method, a ranking method, and statistical analysis methods. In this paper, the differentiation of Russian regions by the socio-economic development level, the financial and digital literacy level is illustrated by rating tables. The hypothesis of the relationship between the integral indicators of financial literacy, digital literacy and the aggregate estimated indicator of heterogeneity of the economic space is tested. The calculations results showed that at present, the increase of the financial literacy level has a direct positive impact on the indicators that characterize the socio-economic situation of the regions, while the expected similar conclusion regarding the digital literacy indicator is not statistically confirmed. Possible reasons for this fact are analyzed. The conclusions formulated in this paper can be used in the development of activities within the framework of Federal target programs, regional development programs.
