The Industrial Development Fund (IDF) will expand its support for industrial projects by integrating with VEB: alongside the fund’s existing preferential medium-term loans at 3–5%, the state corporation will offer long-term market-based instruments. Currently, the IDF’s ability to support industry is limited by budget subsidies.

Thanks to these changes, the volume of new industrial projects is estimated at ₽1.2 trillion by 2030. For companies that already receive support from the fund or are planning to apply for it, the terms of preferential financing will remain unchanged. At the same time, they will have an additional opportunity to increase their capital through long-term market-based investments raised by VEB—their importance will grow as the key interest rate falls.
