Economy

Russia has gone through significant changes since the collapse of the Soviet Union, moving from a centrally planned economy towards a more market-based system. Both economic reform and economic growth have stalled in recent years, however, the country remains a predominantly statist economy with a high concentration of wealth. The protection of property rights in Russia is still after privatising many sectors and the country continues to interfere in the free operation of the private sector. Russia is one of the world’s largest producers of oil and natural gas and also the top exporter of metals such as aluminium and steel as per report of trade data of Russia.

A combination of structural limitations, international sanctions and falling oil prices pushed Russia into a deep recession in the year 2015 with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) falling by close to 4%.
