Russia's Lost Decade? Challenges to Growth, Recipes for AccelerationAndrey Shapenko
The Russian economy today is going through a critical stage. The growth model, which catapulted the country into the world’s top ten economies’ list has been exhausted and most experts believe that Russia is facing a long period of low or no growth. While the world is moving forward, Russia’s standing still. Hovering anxiously in one place means its economy is becoming smaller and is further increasing its competitive gap.
The ailing economy is often blamed on the falling oil prices combined with the economic sanctions that were imposed on Russia in 2014. However, the array of challenges that the economy is facing today is much broader than that, and the recession in Russia has deeper roots.
This report represents an attempt to discuss those roots and to summarize economic agenda that the country's leadership will face on the way to restart growth, amid the 2018 presidential elections. This agenda will define economic and fiscal policy over the next 5-10 years, and thus will impact anyone who is doing business or going to invest in the country.

The Alternate Part Analysis groups together parts that share the same "form, fit, and function". These related parts may be fully interchangeable; conversely, one or more parts may supersede others. A graphical representation helps the user visualize the individual relationships between parts. Information sources may include manufacturer specifications, illustrated parts catalogs (IPCs), non-OEM manufacturer part relationships, internal company engineering documents, internal company part numbers, and purchase order part substitutions. Common applications include: integrating two or more inventories upon the merger of business entities, merging existing and new product lines, system audits, and competitive analysis. Common industries include aviation and aerospace; manufacturing and distribution; and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO).

After bursting onto the international tourism stage in the 1990s, China has been one of the world’s fastest-growing outbound travel markets. This growth has been a little erratic in recent years, but in 2010 the market confirmed that it was well and truly back on a strong growth track.
India has become one of the world's fastest-growing travel markets. UNWTO figures for 2008 suggest that
it ranked 25th that year, in terms of international travel expenditure, with a total spend, excluding
transport, of US$9.6 bn, up 23% on the previous year. Spending in 2009 is estimated to have increased by
7.3% to US$10.3 bn.
In 2009 the number of outbound tourists from Argentina was 4.9 million. However, the majority of them travelled to neighbouring countries, mostly Brazil and Chile. This fact is reflected by the statistics showing the most common choice for transportation: in 2009 38% of outbound tourists chose air travel and 46% opted for travelling on land.

19. Outbound Tourism
• Only 20 years ago Russians were banned from travelling abroad.
• Good growth of outbound tourism in the last decade driven by Russia’s gas and oil
- rich economy, which generated increased prosperity, rising incomes and a strong
rouble.
• In 1995 only 2.6 million Russians went on holiday outside the former Soviet Union;
by 2006 the figure had trebled, to 7.7 million.

crisis.

business trips are often more difficult to obtain.

tourists demonstrate a preference for leading brands, opulent hotels, and exclusive
restaurants.
• Russians have contributed to the emergence of a luxury segment in new
destinations like Montenegro, and have revitalised traditional destinations like the
French Riviera and Courchevel

26. Purpose Of Travel
• Official figures on the purpose of outbound trips are not considered reliable due to
the large numbers of business travellers who report that they are travelling for
leisure purposes in order to simplify visa and other processes.
• IPK International’s Russia Travel Monitor suggested in 2006 that holidays account
for 56% of total trips, other leisure (including VFR) for 19%, and business travel for
25%. The breakdowns reported by individual destinations vary widely.
• Main purpose of visit was 47% business (an unusually high proportion), 24%
holidays, 19% VFR, 10% study and other(VisitBritain, 2008)
27. Source Regions
• More than 40% of all Russian outbound travellers live in Moscow followed by St.
Petersburg
• Demand from big provincial cities such as Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk had been
growing faster than that from the capital, but it suffered more from the economic
recession in 2008-09.
28. Travel Formalities
• Visas are required by Russians for most countries in Europe and others.
• Turkey, the leading holiday destination, gives visa-free access for Russians.
• Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia also have visa-free access for Russians. Israel and
Egypt (important competitors for European destinations), among others, also offer
visa-free travel or visas on arrival for Russians.
29. Information Sources
• Internet - Internet users also prefer personal recommendations for travel
information.
• Word of mouth
• Travel agents
• According to travel trade, the main sources of travel information are printed
materials, such as catalogues, booklets and leaflets, outdoor advertising
(banners, billboards), and radio and television.
30. Booking Methods
• Russians frequently use the internet to compare prices of flights, hotels and
package prices but very few actually book over the internet - partly because
e-commerce is still not well developed in Russia and partly because they need the
support of travel agents for their visa applications.
• A small number of Russians do book hotels directly. These tend to be more
experienced and independent travellers.
• A number of surveys in recent years have noted a shift from group to FIT travel.
However, many destinations have also reported a shift towards all-inclusive holiday
packages over the last five years (from 20% to 54% in Greece and 5% to 17% in
Croatia and Montenegro, for instance).
31. Online Population

inhabitants - compared to 30% in advanced economies), but only 9.3 mn
broadband subscriptions (6.6 per 100 inhabitants, compared with the 25-30 in
advanced economies).
