Abstract
The article views a possibility for application of cluster approach at the regional level. The authors offer criteria which characterize current and strategic competitiveness of the cluster and could be a landmark for development of economic policy at the regional level. Evaluation of cluster’s profile is conducted on the basis of the matrix of correspondence of these types of competitiveness. According to criterial indicators of qualitative development of the region, basic blocks and indicators of cluster functioning effectiveness are offered. The algorithm of calculation of integral complex evaluation of the profile and effectiveness of cluster is shown.
