The Embassy’s Economic Section produces regular analysis of the Russian economy. We do this for three reasons. First, because the increasing involvement of Russia in the international economic and financial system means that Russia and the UK are ever-more interdependent in the economic sphere. Second, the large increases in trade and investment links between the UK and Russia require, and are partly facilitated by, a deep understanding of the Russian economy. And third, Russia’s economics and politics are highly interdependent – so understanding Russia’s political future means understanding its economic present.
Our customers include readers in various UK government departments in London, colleagues in Moscow trying to understand the Russian economy, British companies thinking about stepping into Russia, and interested members of the public. On this page you can find some of our economic analysis, a guide to some websites providing useful information on the Russian economy, and contact details.
