The slowdown of the Russian economy is due to chronic factors and cannot be cured by simple fixes such as relaxing monetary or fiscal policy. The biggest impediment to growth in Russia’s case is the weak market environment, evidenced foremost by the dominance of state-owned enterprises and quasi-government companies.
