Rent-based economic security of Russian regions: interrelations between resource potential development and rent income formation factors

the relevance of the study on rent-based economic security of Russian regions is driven by the necessity to establish stable socio-economic systems capable of efficiently utilizing resource potential under macroeconomic instability. The article examines the impact of rent incomes on reproduction processes, investment activity, and structural transformation of regional economies. The analysis covers rent factors, including natural, financial, innovative, and institutional components, and their influence on socio-economic sustainability indicators. The research aims to develop a conceptual model that reflects the interrelations between resource potential development and rent income formation factors in the socio-economic development of regions. The research employs modeling, diagnostic analysis, and balance analysis methods to assess rent dependence, economic diversification, and resource potential sustainability. Mechanisms for redistributing rent flows and their impact on the long-term strategic stability of regions are examined. Results: An integrated model for diagnosing the economic security of regions has been developed, incorporating a system of indicators for rent dependence, structural economic balance, innovation and technological sustainability, and socio-demographic characteristics. Threshold values of rent dependence have been established, and regional categories based on their sustainability levels have been defined. Additionally, strategies for managing rent incomes to enhance competitiveness and reduce macroeconomic risks have been proposed. Conclusion: Recommendations for improving rent income redistribution mechanisms have been formulated, aimed at diversifying regional economies, increasing investment activity, and enhancing the efficiency of resource potential utilization. The obtained results can be applied within the framework of state regional development policy to optimize rent flow regulation mechanisms and ensure the economic security of the Russian Federation's regions.
