Abstract:
The study of inequality in different economic systems and its negative impact on economic growth is one of the main tasks at the present stage. Inequality can become an obstacle to sustainable development of the state. The solution of this problem directly depends on the level of development of the innovative economy of the country. The digitalization of the economy will contribute to the reduction of economic inequality in different economic systems, increase the competitiveness of the state and improve the quality of life. The purpose of the study is to identify some macroeconomic factors influencing economic inequality in Russia and to determine the dynamics of this inequality. To study this problem, a quantitative and qualitative analysis was conducted. Based on the obtained data, a consensus forecast of changes in the level of inequality in Russia was made. This forecast made it possible to determine the pace of economic development of the country in a timely manner. The constructed model can be used by researchers to study the economic inequality of a country according to its indicators.
