The most substantial growth of the share in the aggregate investment portfolio of private asset managers was demonstrated by shares (from 19 % to 29 %), and was observed mostly in Q IV. It were shares that provided the highest rate of return during the period under consideration. Over the year 2006, the RTS index grew by more than 70 % (in USD), including by 23 % during Q IV; obviously, this high dynamics of the prices of shares became the factor responsible for the high rate of return achieved by PAMs in 2006. As seen by the results of the year 2006, the highest rate of return on investments achieved by private asset managers was 39 % (UNIVER Management), while in 2005 it was 52 % (Troika - Dialog). The rate of return on pension savings investment achieved by Vneshekonombank was 5.7 % in 2006 (against 12 % by the results of 2005) Table 1 shows the structure of the investment portfolio of asset managers with the highest rates of return, as seen by the results of the first three quarters of 2006. It appears that one cannot, after all, come to the conclusion that it was investment in shares that provided the highest rates of return within the investment portfolio. Shares constituted approximately only one half of the investment portfolio of RTK-INVEST. Three asset managers with rates of return of 26 % - 29 % also had a rather high percentage of shares (25 % - 26 %), and a higher - of subfederal bonds (31 % -36 %). As for the leader of 2006 - UNIVER Management, - its investment portfolio is very small in absolute terms (its market value being only 2.3 million roubles as of the end of Q III 2006), which, evidently, was the reason for its deformed structure (more than a half of its assets was concentrated at credit institutions as residuals on the asset managerТs accounts or as monies transferred to the professional participants of the securities market, which are not instruments with high rates of return).

The rate of return of RTK-INVEST, who also had kept its second place, on the contrary, went up - from 29.8 % to 37.0 %. The third place was occupied by DoverieKAPITAL (35.7 %), the 4th - by OTKRYTIE (35.1 %), the 5th - by the balanced investment portfolio of AGANA (35.0 %). The rates of return among the managers of the largest investment portfolios, as seen from Table 2, were rather versatile (between 9 % and 30 %), while being on the average 19.6 % (the average index of all the PAMs was 21 %).

As of the end of Q III 2006, this instrument was present in only 10 investment portfolios, while their share in the aggregate investment portfolio of PAMs was less than 6 % (7 % as of the end of year). At the same time, the share of funds being transferred by asset managers to brokers and/or to exchange settlement systems remains rather high. In respect to the aggregate investment portfolio of private asset managers, this index was 8 %, while the total share of money assets placed within the banking system thus became 16 %.
Since no information on the structure of pension savings investments being formed by the NGPFs in have become available as of the moment of the publication of this paper, we can estimate the role of the institutes participating, at later dates, in the mandatory pension system within the corresponding segments only by those asset managers that invest the assets belonging to the PFR. Thus, the share of pension savings invested by asset managers in rouble-denominated government securities increased over the year from 18 % to 24 % of the total volume of the market issues of OFZ22. At the same time, the share of pension savings on the corporate bond and share markets remains very low (as of the end of Q III - 0.2 % and 0.01 %, respectively). If one bears in mind that pension savings can be invested only in the securities listed in the quotations of the highest level only, the situation will change but slightly. The share of pension savings in the total volume of bonds included in lists А1 of the Russian exchanges was 2.2 %, while in the capitalization of the shares thus listed - 0.04 %.
This situation makes it possible to call attention once more to the urgent necessity of diversifying the instruments and liberalizing the procedure for investing the pension savings being formed for the benefit of those insured persons who have not made any investment choice of their own.
L. Mikhailov, L. Sycheva Military expenditures in the 2007 federal budget In accordance with the federal budget, RussiaТs military expenditures, which have been brought in their structure to comply with the NATO standard, in 2007 will become as high as 3.81 % of GDP, having grown in real terms by 8.1 %, while the expenditures under the section УNational DefenseФ will grow by 9.9 %. In this connection, as before, efforts are mainly focused at increasing the investment component of military expenditures.
The 2007 federal budget (FB-07) 23, signed by the President of the Russian Federation on 19 December 2006, envisages expenditures under the section УNational DefenseФ in the amount of 822 billion roubles (2.63 % of GDP, or 15.05 % of the total federal expenditure of FB-07). The growth in real terms24 against last year in that sectionТs total will be 9.9% (see Table 1). The main growth of expenditures will be seen under subsections 0206 УApplied scientific research in the sphere of national defenseФ and 0208 УOther issues in the sphere of national defenseФ: the former will be increased by 18.5 %, the latter - by as much as 36.7 %. The greatest relative growth will be demonstrated by the expenditures under subsection 0202 УMobilization - related and military training for civiliansФ Ч by 53.93 %. Subsection 0201 УArmed Forces of the Russian FederationФ - the principal one in that section, both in volume and significance, - will be increased by 5.9 %. In the other subsections, it is planned that expenditures in real terms will be decreased.
The expenditures under section 0300 УNational Security and Law - Enforcement ActivityФ are expected to grow in real terms by comparison with the year 2006 by 9.3 % and to become as high as 662.9 billion roubles (2.12 % of GDP of 12.6 % of total expenditure in FB-07). The highest growth in expenditure is envisaged under subsections 0309 УPrevention and liquidation of consequences of emergency situations and natural disasters, civil defenseФ (by 24.2 %) and 0306 УSecurity agenciesФ (by 11.9 %). In this connection, the military component in the former case will grow only slightly (according to our estimate Ч by 1.5 %), while the expenditures under subsection 0307 УFrontier service agenciesФ will remain, in fact, at the level of (Table 2). The military expenditures under other budget sections display a relative growth (by 18.1 %) in the financing of closed administrative and territorial units (CATU).
On the whole, the relative growth of defense expenditures in 2007 will be slightly (by 0.6 %) higher than the growth of security expenditures, which, however, will have no influence on their comparative dynamics in the medium term (Table 3 and Fig.), which demonstrates that security expenditures have been growing, on the whole, approximately twice as fast as defense expenditures.
