Abstract Features of the development of border areas are due, on the one hand, to their marginal position in the state, and on the other – proximity to neighboring countries. A lot of scientific works in Russia and abroad devoted to different purposes and based on different approaches and methods are devoted to the study of these territories. The purpose of this article is to assess the impact of the post-Soviet integration factor on the economic growth of the new border regions of Russia in 2005–2015. The study showed that this influence was not the same in different country areas of the belt of border regions. In general, the effect of the integration factor on their development by 2015 on the whole belt of border regions has weakened noticeably, which is explained by macroeconomic, geopolitical and structural problems. For the development of new border regions in this period, the situation concerning the Moscow region and the degree of their involvement in international trade were more significant.
