Sustainable development of Moscow’s construction market: the role of banking instruments and risk assessment

DOI: 10.33917/mic-3.122.2025.100-109

The article examines the factors influencing the dynamics of housing construction in Moscow between 2019 and 2024, with a particular focus on the role of banking instruments in ensuring the stability of the construction industry. It explores the effects of the pandemic, changes in credit policies, and legislative innovations such as the reduction of warranty periods and the lowering of penalty sanctions. The findings suggest that economic instability and shifts in consumer preferences have a significant impact on the market structure, while financial instruments help mitigate the negative effects of crisis situations. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of an integrated approach aimed at further improving financial mechanisms and adapting legislation to support the stable development of the construction sector.

DOI: 10.33917/es-2.200.2025.48-53

The article presents distribution of the largest Russian banks by the size of the loan portfolio, which made it possible to substantiate the fact that in the Russian credit system there is a high level of differentiation in interest rates and conditions for attracting loans, which has an ambiguous effect on the quality of the credit process. The author identifies a modern problem of interaction between banking market entities and clients – the presence of high debt on loans, which will allow in the future to develop and apply, within the framework of banks’ credit policy, the most rational repayment scheme.
