Analysis by Region - Emerging Markets - Russia
Description
We raised our 2025 GDP growth forecasts for Russia by 0.2ppts to 1% and reduced our 2026 forecast by 0.1ppt to 0.8%, owing mostly to recent GDP data revisions. In Q2, annual growth slowed to 1.1% from 1.4%. Activity is losing momentum despite the central bank cutting its policy rate by a combined 300bps in summer. Low oil prices weigh on budget revenues and limit room for fiscal stimulus, making a recession increasingly likely in the coming quarters.
