Abstract

Purpose of work: to study the current state of the Russian economy and identify opportunities for its transition to a digital model if certain conditions are met. Materials and methods: content analysis of scientific literature and analysis of statistical data. Result. The current macroeconomic indicators of the Russian economy in the context of its competitiveness are outlined; key infrastructure problems from the perspective of digitalization that hinder the transition of the Russian economy to a new model are identified; possible development scenarios are formulated. Conclusion. The main obstacle to the transformation of the Russian resource economy into a digital model is the lack of a developed digital infrastructure. As a possible scheme for the implementation of “transit”, the author’s scheme for the development of “digitalization” for the resource model of the economy is proposed.
