Siluanov named the categories of citizens for the indexation of social benefits in 2026

The draft federal budget provides for the indexation of social benefits in 2026, while the so-called specified categories of state employees' salaries will be increased in 2026, taking into account the projected growth rate of nominal wages. This was announced on October 22 by Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, speaking at a plenary session of the State Duma.

"Social policy is the first priority. The draft budget includes a full allocation for the indexation of social obligations. The so-called specified categories of state employees will be paid higher, taking into account the projected growth rate of nominal wages. In 2026, this figure will be 7.6%," Siluanov said.
