Key Highlights
Despite a slowdown due to the global crisis in 2008, the core growth of Russia’s economy remains strong. According to a World Bank report for 2010 in Russia, after a 4% growth in 2010, real output is expected to grow 4.4% in 2011, driven by domestic demand. Goods production was the main factor in Russia’s gross domestic product (GDP) expansion in 2010, contributing around 60% to aggregate growth. In Russia, consumer spending has risen rapidly over the past few years, mainly driven by an increase in disposable income. The flourishing economy has given rise to an expanding middle and upper class, and although the economic crisis hit Russian household spending, consumers were able withstand the impact and survive the period of crisis. The government announced stimulus packages and increased pensions and wages. According to Statistics of Russia (Rosstat), poverty declined in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009 and is expected to fall further in the coming period. Russian consumers have relatively high disposable incomes, a major factor behind the rapid growth of the Russian retail environment. According to Thomas White International, Russian disposable income in 2009 was estimated at 65% of earned income, compared to 43% in Western European countries.
