New “predator” in the Russian economic fauna: low inflation

85
What is good and what is bad? In relation to the Russian economy. As it turns out, the current economists, like a crumb from a poem by Vladimir Mayakovsky, do not know the answer to this question. At least, they are confused in their own assessments of what is happening with the Russian economy.

In order.



Literally, every economic official of any (and especially - federal) level, one of the main problems with the lack of prospects for substantial growth of the Russian economy called excessively high inflation. The reasoning looked quite sensible: high inflation - high interest on bank loans - the impossibility for companies to get a plus, provided that they needed to repay loans for draconian interest - weak growth, or even a decline in the country's economy. In fact, at any major economic forum, the thesis was expressed that we would, they say, reduce inflation to the level of relatively developed countries - a percentage so 2-3, well, no more than 4-s, per year, and this will revitalize the lending sphere, which means , will give impetus to entrepreneurship, which in turn will spur on the steady growth of Russia's GDP.

New “predator” in the Russian economic fauna: low inflation


And here, it would seem, the officials from the economy should celebrate the victory. Indeed, it was possible to arrive at those inflation indicators (at least as reports indicate), which are similar to the mentioned target values. This is what the inflation dynamics in our country look like according to Rosstat for the last 7 years: 2010 year - 8,78%, 2011 - 6,1%, 2012 - 6,58%, 2013 - 6,45%, 2014 - 11,36%, 2015 - 12,9 . The forecast for the current year is up to 2016%. Today (when recalculated for annual value) inflation is about 5,4%. Victory. Achieved "what they have long dreamed of." Champagne in the studio? ..

But why are the faces of the Russian economic "gurus" sad again? Not just sad, but even obviously tense, so much so that the muscles from the tension tremble.

At the forum “Russia is calling!”, Which is taking place these days in our country, Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov suddenly announced that a slowdown in inflation may turn out to be almost a poison for the Russian economy. According to the chief financier of Russia, “the sharp slowdown in inflation that is observed today can create risks for Russian companies, primarily for financial companies.”

True, Siluanov immediately added that the slowdown in price growth cannot be considered solely as a threat to the Russian economy. Low inflation, which needs to be “closely watched," according to the head of the Ministry of Finance, provides new opportunities for lowering interest rates and attracting capital and resources.

Next, the baton of comments about low inflation rates from Anton Siluanov was intercepted by the head of VTB Andrei Kostin. According to him, "concern with the process is growing."

From the statement of the head of one of the largest banks in Russia, Andrei Kostin:
Today we are talking about 3% inflation. And even we (why “even”? - author's note) see concern, and if inflation is not falling too fast and, in general, how Russia will live, how such low inflation rates will affect our economic development. This is absolutely atypical for the Russian economy.


In general, another incident for domestic economic experts. And the essence of this "incident", in fact, is clear. The reason for such statements of "concern" lies in the interests of the country's banking sector.

The situation for this sector, as Kostin reported, is really atypical. After all, some Russian banks fed on “fats” solely due to the fact that they operated (and continue to do so) with truly astronomical interest on loans for both ordinary people and the business sector. When a loan to a “brotherly power” is issued for an amazing 0,3-0,5% per annum (with almost 100% doubtful in the final payments), the interest on the loan, for example, for small businesses in the country is still extremely rare below 13- 14% per year.

And here there is a decrease in inflation rates, which means a decrease in the Central Bank’s key rate, and ultimately, as a result, the need to reduce the rates on loans to banks. Again, banks began to receive a stream of mortgage holders, car loans and other citizens who solve their financial problems using bank loan offers.

And the bankers have figured: yes, this is a “guard!” - with such inflationary indicators, you will have to lower credit rates even lower, and therefore receive not the profits that are used to receive in the banking sector at “mowing” phenomenal interest. Immediately, what good, bankers will really have to work ... But how to work. It’s not easy to play a simple interest game about who pushes the loan rates even higher and still does not lose customers. And to think about where to invest.

Far from all representatives of the banking community are ready to invest in the real sector. And why should they? .. After all, there the average time to profit is rarely less than 10-12 years. And our bankers are not used to such long expectations. Give them here and now. Well, a maximum of a year and a half or two. Profit, profit, profit, profit ... And therefore investment in engineering, metallurgy, real innovative projects - this is still more and more isolated cases for banks. Where more often - speculation, stocks, currency exchange, loans from each other, etc.

That is why bankers and still fall into a quiet panic. How wonderful it was for banks to live at an inflation rate well, at least in 8% ... You could famously lift the real credit ceiling under 30-35% per annum. And now the question has arisen: “what to do?” Are the fat years for those who cut profit by draconian percentages in Russia, coming to an end? And the answer to this question we all will know very soon. If suddenly bankers decide that they don’t want to move away from the usual pattern of work in the country, and they don’t want to learn to work in the new conditions either, they will finally declare low inflation in Russia “the enemy of the people” and again, even if artificially, drag inflation bar up. To encourage people not to heal suddenly and so that small business does not decide that the bulk of the profits can be allowed not for repayment of loans, but for further development ...

Or, everything will be even simpler: the recognition that, they say, was "short of money", and our inflation is still not 3% ...

        Here it turns out interestingly.

        A high percentage is the lack of sales of banking products. And a slowdown in speculation. What is just oil for the economy. Stable economic development and the contribution of money to production. Slowly but surely.

        Low percentage.
        This is a temporary acceleration of the economy, and then a huge debt bubble, as in the United States. And an irrevocable situation.

        So which is better?

    All Russian so-called economic "luminaries": Siluanovs, Ulyukaevs, Kudrins, Nabiulins, etc. - they’re carrying nonsense, they’re used to unpunished “economical noodles” hanging on the ears of the population and there’s nothing to answer for! negative There is even a joke about all these pitiful economists: - Columbus was the first economist. When he went to discover America, he did not know where he was going. When he reached it, he did not know where he was. And he did all this with government funds. lol

                17.53. Vasilenko! At the initial stage of his work, Putin was already asked such a question. Then it was. They wrote him news on the disc and he watched them in his free time. But watching all TV programs is certainly not realistic, as well as reading the entire press. There is no time for this and there is no point. Recently, he was again asked a similar question. Type that Putin looks in the internet. To which Putin replied that the Internet is an informational wash where there is little truth. And information is provided to him specially sorted by specially trained people. And Putin is right in this matter. hi

        08.56. Stas! Putin is not a stupid person. But he has his own religion. The religion of the free market, which will remove all problems with an invisible hand. He believes that all problems from state participation in the economy. He considers public administration not effective. Although he himself rules the country and puts the staff. But he himself considers his activity ineffective. But private management is also not a standard of organization and efficiency. But for some reason, it does not see bankruptcies of a private business and financial injections into this private business. And stubbornly offers to discard everything to this private business that is constantly going bankrupt. It turns out that he himself cannot organize effective activity, and the oligarchs cannot. But he is not able to renounce his religion. Nationalization also can not. There are no normal managers and how will he carry out the seizure of private property? By buying bankrupt companies? But state-owned companies are also managed by the same sages as private ones. But he is sure that private traders are better! Again, the question of Faith-Religion arises. It turns out a vicious circle or life with a squirrel running in a wheel. hi

          I must admit that Putin is a fairly persistent person and knows how to bring his plan to the end. But, with regard to the interests of the elite, the inner circle, he is completely loyal to them.

Reducing the lending rate makes them increasingly fierce competition. Additionally, the system leaves a stable state. And it scares many, which is quite normal.

      Many banks for 5 years already have been holding for the population lower rates on deposits longer than 0,5 years, setting (lowering) interest on one deposit, depending on the term. Moreover, allowing re-register deposits without loss after 3-6 months. Around the world, interest on "long" investments is several times higher than on "short" and "demand", but not in the Russian Federation. And the reason is that banks are not used to playing long, their Forex skate and household loans to households. They even give a mortgage reluctantly, because how long to wait.

          Again. There will be a “load” for the bank when it will be forced to issue loans at interest below the rates of accepted deposits. Do you seriously believe that this is possible? The interest at which you can get a loan at the bank is always lower than the interest at which you can put money on deposit. And here is the inflation rate? Incidentally, the Central Bank refinancing rate is now 2,5 times higher than inflation. The interest on the deposit is always less than the refinancing rate, and the interest on the loan is always higher.

    Well this is ridiculous. The author has no idea what is happening in the banking sector. Firstly, there is no need to be confused - justification for interest (i.e., chatter) and real economic reasons. If we take the logic of the author, the bank takes from the Central Bank at the refinancing rate, for example, 19% (which includes inflation) and gives it to 30% to the client. Bank profit - 11%. The Central Bank lowered the refinancing rate to 12% - the bank likewise reduces the rate to 23% and has the same 11% profit. Where is the damage to the bank?
    And secondly - I will reveal a little secret to the author - banks did not take money from the Central Bank. They stupidly took loans in the West at 3%, but here they gave this money at 30%, and everyone did not give a damn about the Central Bank rate. And now the West has forbidden to give loans to Russian banks for at least some long term. And suddenly it became clear that the Russian Federation does not have a banking system - to borrow under 3% and to give back under 30% - a lot of brains are not needed. With such income, you can not evaluate borrowers, you can spit on the selection and training of personnel - the profit will cover the jambs. But take at 9,25% (current rate), give at 20% and still make money in a falling market, where it is not clear who will still pay on loans tomorrow and who will go bankrupt ...

      And what is 10% really not enough for Russian banks? In the West, for some reason 3% is enough to give loans favorably. And then the percentage of bad loans in advance is calculated and mortgaged. This is already a worked out moment and our banks will not be at a loss.

    No, that's right! Inflation in the country is decreasing ... and for banks - always gaining "fat" not even at the expense of industrial loans, consumer loans and mortgages - but due to currency speculation! These speculations and gave rise to an abundance of banks, "daughter-stepsons", ephemeral ...
    In normal capitalist the country has an optimal investment / industrial loan rate - 6-8%, agricultural loan - 3-4%, consumer - 0,2-1% (mortgage - a special article).
    В abnormal - Russia - speculative lending, works objectively on inflation (money from the air ...). The domestic market is not saturated with consumer goods (our own!) - there is no competition between manufacturers (only sellers ...), using a lending policy it is impossible to separate a successful entrepreneur from sucker! All products are “in demand” (except for those for which the consumer has no money), loans are extinguished by re-lending and speculative currency transactions, competition in terms of product quality and quantity does not work!
    The capitalist economy works through a few simple mechanisms, the main of which is competition. Bad businessmen take losses and leave the market, leaving the best on the playing field: those who make a dollar and a dime each year from the dollar. Banks should accelerate the selection process for the best by providing loans at 6-12% per annum .... Imagine two businessmen, John and Bill. John works fine, earning his few percent profits and looking confidently into the future. Bill does not know how to work, he has only losses. At a normal rate on loans, Bill would go broke pretty quickly and free up the market for John. However, now Bill can take a loan at a bank at a very small percentage and ... continue to work at a loss. In two or three years, when the money runs out, take another loan. And then one more and one more, thereby delaying their bankruptcy to infinity.
    At the same time, a skilled businessman John is forced to follow Bill involuntarily: lower prices below the level of profitability so as not to lose customers in this unhealthy market. As an example, we can point out the American shale industry, most of which at a normal rate on loans would have gone bankrupt for a long time, thereby returning oil prices to a healthy level of $ 100 or more per barrel.
    Add to this unsightly picture the monopoly and oligopoly, which cheap loans made it possible to grow uncontrollably, and the portrait of the disease will probably be completed.
    https://www.planet-kob.ru/news/20171024/6540
    Cheap loans are good when you have access to them, and your competitors do not.
    And - is the market for goods and services in Russia so saturated? competitive in the world market - products? Not to mention the artificially limited purchasing power of the population in the consumer market ...
    Therefore - for Russia, the loan rate of 2-3% - both in industrial loans and in consumer loans - is optimal, and in mortgage loans - and a fraction of a percent ... It is necessary to develop! Grow!!!
    We observed something similar in the USSR in the 1970-80s. The Soviet authorities did not have enough political will to close inefficient enterprises, and they gradually degraded, producing less and less high-quality and less popular products by the economy. Hothouse conditions led to a logical outcome: when, after the collapse of the USSR, domestic industry was thrown into the arena of capitalist tigers, that first years could hardly provide them with decent resistance.
    Exactly the same thing is happening now in the West. Of course, the central banks of the United States and the European Union are well aware that negative interest rate policy (POPS) is a dead end, but it is no longer possible to return to healthy capitalist rails. Raising rates to a level of at least 5% per annum is guaranteed to kill a business that is hooked on cheap loans.
    Unfortunately, this problem no longer has a beautiful solution. If the USSR had even a theoretical opportunity to follow the example of China, gently reforming the economy (instead of giving it to the slaughter of pro-American reformers), then our Western friends and partners simply do not have such an opportunity. Over the past 15 years, printing presses have released so much money that it is unlikely that it will be possible to get out of the crisis without massive bankruptcies and hyperinflation.

      Under capitalism, the cause of the crisis is always the problem of overproduction. More and more enterprises begin to produce cost-effective goods, as a result, supply rises, price decreases, price falls below cost, enterprises begin to go bankrupt, layoffs - CRISIS. The USSR destroyed the same thing. It seemed like a planned economy, what kind of overproduction can we talk about? But remember the Stakhanov movement, which the Communist Party seized upon, with a general deficit, it was a blessing, but then the "mandatory" plan was overfulfilled by 2-10%. As a result, we have the same overproduction, overstocking with unnecessary “trash”, deadening resources and pumping the economy with money for unrealized goods. Stable prices were kept by the administrative resource; as a result, they received a shortage of consumer goods and food.
