The factors are the irregularity coefficients of indices achievement, characterizing the conditions for human capital formation and development in the regions of the Russian Federation. The calculation results of influence of factors on the deviation of conditions for human capital formation and development in whole in Russian Federation are presented, and the analysis of territorial differences is carried out. There was determined the distribution of factor values, that influenced much on assessment of conditions for human capital formation and development, per Federal Districts (macroregions), different variation of factors was revealed. Intra-regional differences were analyzed based on distribution of factors that influenced much on the assessment of conditions for human capital formation and development, per the constituent entities of the Federation of the Northwestern Federal District. There were determined the regions, that had the most and the least favorable conditions from the positions of human capital. There was determined a possibility to collate the indices as per the share of influence on the assessment value, presenting the basis to determine the priorities in development of regional policy of human capital formation and development.Keywords: Human capital, Factors of development, Regional policy, Regional economy.JEL Classifications: J24; C31; H76; Z13
