Annotation: For nine years, Russia has been under the influence of sanctions imposed by a number of European countries and the United States. From 2014 to 2022, sanctions were put forward by the world community, which had a significant impact on all spheres of the country’s public life. At the same time, there is a gradual transition from targeted restrictions on individuals and enterprises to blocking entire sectors of the Russian economy. The consequences of the imposed sanctions seriously affect the Russian economy. The article analyzes the impact of anti-Russian sanctions on the country’s economy. It was noted that the sanctions impact on the country’s economy was reflected in the reduction in GDP, inflation growth, reduction in imports, and reduction in the volume of Russia’s foreign trade. The article analyzes the prospects for the development of the country’s economy in the context of ongoing sanctions. A possible scenario for further development is proposed, taking into account adaptation to the modern realities of economic development.

The rating of investment activity of the federal districts of Russia has been compiled.

Annotation: The purpose of the article is to identify the essence of intellectual capital as a specific factor in the creative activity of economic agents in the modern economy. The methodological basis of the study is a systematic approach to the search for the qualitative certainty of the “intellectual” phenomenon, as well as the dialectical relationship between the objective and the subjective in the analysis of modern economics. The following results of the conducted logical-epistemological analysis, containing elements of scientific novelty, are proposed: first, the essence of the intellect is defined as a moral and mental form of the human mind; second, the most important aspects of the critical increase in complexity in the modern economy are noted, which predetermines the actualization of the spiritual and moral form of human capital with the corresponding “transfer” of the current scientific paradigm; third, an interpretation of the essence of intellectual capital as a systemic factor of creative activity has been developed within the framework of the requirements of the principles of humanism, goodness and justice. The scientific and practical significance of the key provisions of the article consists in the imperative of expanded reproduction of the intellectual form of modern human capital as a factor basis of the spiritual and moral vector of socio-economic development.

Annotation: The article is devoted to the study of mechanisms for circumventing unilateral economic restrictions that oil and gas companies in the Russian Federation are currently facing. The features of economic restrictions, their impact on the activities of the oil and gas industry in the modern world, and the mechanisms available to oil and gas companies to bypass restrictions are considered. It is shown that the introduction of a digital ruble, through which it will be possible to carry out transactions with foreign counterparties, has a great potential for circumventing unilateral economic restrictions. In addition, it is important to create an innovative ecosystem for managing the oil and gas industry, which includes scientific research, the development of new technologies, robotics and the integration of digital technologies into the organizational and technological processes of oil and gas companies. The article presents an assessment of the risks and benefits associated with the use of mechanisms to circumvent economic restrictions, as well as a set of recommendations for oil and gas companies that plan to use these mechanisms. The research methods were statistical and graphical methods, analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction. The article contains both theoretical analysis and practical aspects of circumventing unilateral economic restrictions.
