Economic Growth and Competitiveness in Russia: Price and Non-price Factors of Analysis
https://doi.org/10.32609/0042-8736-2006-3-42-61
Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of economic growth perspectives and dynamics of competitiveness indicators of the Russian economy on macro-level (including main industry branches). The indicators of real effective exchange rate are analyzed along with unit labor cost indicators for estimating investment potential of the Russian economy in its relation to the main trade partners. Additionally, opportunities of parallel analysis of integral (price and non-price) and partial competitiveness indicators are examined with the aim to isolate the effects of various parameters of competitiveness on the integral indicator registered by surveys. The classical technique of the financial portfolio analysis for quantitative estimation of the Russian industry’s portfolio diversification in 1999—2004 is applied as a measure of structural competitiveness.
