Russia’s GDP increased 4% in 2010. GDP and industrial production nearly recovered by the end of 2010, reaching 97-99% of the values recorded in September 2008, as estimated by Rosstat. These values show that as early as the beginning of 2011 Russia’s economy is more likely to eclipse its pre-crisis level. A few industries, however, are showing levels which are still far behind the values recorded prior to the crisis, namely machine building industry (20%), metallurgy (8%), construction industry (5%). Therefore, most industries may not be expected to recover completely until the second half of 2011 or early in 2012.
