 Political Outlook: Russia’s political risk index
is 66.5 (indicating moderate stability) in 2018.
Russia has transformed to a more market-
based system from a centrally planned
economy. Also, economic reforms have been
subordinated to the imperatives of political
stability and government longevity.
 Economic Overview: With the Government’s
plan to increase VAT from 18% in 2018 to 20%
in 2019, GDP is expected to grow at 1.4% in
2019. Industry represents over 32% of
Russia's GDP and employs nearly 28% of the
population.
 Situation with investments: FDI ﬂows into
Russia have been declining rapidly since
2014, because of geopolitical tensions
between Russia, Ukraine and the Western
countries. In 2016, FDI ﬂows raised up again,
reaching USD 37.7 billion, mainly as a result of
the privatization of the Rosneft oil company.
During the most, first part of 2017, FDI
declined up to USD 24.83 billion.
The share of FDI in the GDP (1.5%) has
remained low, in general view of the country's
growth and economic potential, and working
capital investments represent a large share of
overall FDI.
Corruption, Tax Rates, Access to financing are considered to be the most problematic factors for doing business in Russia
