Alexey Vedev, Head of Financial Studies Department of Gaidar Institute, took part in the online meeting of a dispute club of the Association of Russian Economic Think Tanks “What the twenty first keeps in store for us?”
In his speech, Alexey Vedev presented a forecast of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation in 2021-2024 and noted that Russian economy has been in stagnation for a decade with its average annual growth rate (excluding 2020) below 1%. Compared to other countries, the decline in Russian GDP is expected to be moderate, i.e. by 3.6-3.8%. However, the recovery growth according to many estimates will be at the level of 2.1-2.3% this year, and the pre-crisis approach will take place no earlier than the end of 2022.
