This paper is discussing the applicability of cluster analysis techniques to studying bias in the selection process of government SMB subsidy recipients using data from Moscow city SMB administration. Ward’s Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering Method is used to study 812 SMBs, which received subsidies in 2012-2013 from the Moscow City SMB administration. This analysis strongly demonstrates that clustering mechanisms can be used to reduce selection irregularities in government subsidy distribution.
