Abstract
Since October 2024, the key rate in the Russian Federation exceeds the profitability of a significant number of economic sectors, resulting in such risks as difficulty in lending, the possibility of sliding into recession, and the emergence of a monetary overhang due to individual deposit growth. Using the example of a similar situation in the USA in 1980–1982 with the help of the model of the shifting mode of reproduction (SMR model) the importance of additional commodity supply is shown, which was provided by a strong rise in import supplies. An alternative series of precautionary measures damping the negative effects of a key rate cut is also proposed. On possible options, approximate calculations of the consequences were made with the help of the SMR model.
