Abstract
The elimination of gender inequality in a society helps mitigate social tension and provide the sustainability of the national financial system by using efficiently the potential of women. Gender equality is in the focus of international organizations – including the OECD, UN, World Bank, IMF, UNESCO, ILO – and the European Union, whereas Russia’s current strategic documents contain no provisions addressing the issue of gender inequality.
