    Analyst Opinion

    The stocks market in Russia has shown minimal growth recently, influenced by factors such as geopolitical tensions, economic sanctions, and fluctuating oil prices. Investors remain cautious, impacting overall market confidence and limiting potential investment opportunities.

    Customer preferences:
    Investors in Russia are increasingly gravitating towards sustainable and socially responsible investments, reflecting a growing awareness of environmental and social governance (ESG) factors. This shift is partially influenced by younger generations who prioritize ethical consumption and corporate responsibility. Additionally, there is a rising interest in technology and innovation sectors, driven by demographic changes and a tech-savvy populace. As a result, investment strategies are evolving, with a focus on companies that align with these emerging consumer values and lifestyles.

    Trends in the market:
    In Russia, the stock market is experiencing a notable shift towards sustainable and socially responsible investments, as investors increasingly prioritize companies that demonstrate strong environmental and social governance (ESG) practices. This trend is fueled by younger generations who emphasize ethical consumption and corporate accountability. Additionally, the tech sector is gaining momentum, reflecting the population's growing affinity for innovation and digital solutions. Consequently, industry stakeholders are adapting their strategies to align with these values, which may lead to enhanced corporate reputations and long-term growth opportunities.

    Local special circumstances:
    In Russia, the stock market is uniquely shaped by its vast geographical expanse and diverse cultural landscape, which influence investment behaviors and sector preferences. The country’s rich natural resources drive interest in energy and mining stocks, while a burgeoning tech scene is supported by a highly educated workforce and government incentives for innovation. Additionally, regulatory reforms aimed at enhancing transparency are encouraging foreign investments, as local investors increasingly favor companies that prioritize sustainability and responsible governance in their operations.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The performance of the Russian stock market is significantly influenced by overarching macroeconomic factors such as global commodity prices, geopolitical stability, and domestic economic policies. The dependence on energy exports makes fluctuations in oil and gas prices critical, directly affecting corporate profitability and investor sentiment. Economic health indicators like GDP growth and inflation rates also shape market dynamics, with robust growth attracting foreign capital. Furthermore, fiscal policies aimed at promoting investment and innovation are fostering a more vibrant market environment. Additionally, sanctions and trade relations impact market access and investment flows, emphasizing the importance of geopolitical factors alongside economic fundamentals.

    Methodology

    Data coverage:

    The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on market capitalization/ market volume/ number of trades/ number of listed domestic companies data within the stock market.

    Modeling approach / Market size:

    Market sizes are determined by a bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use market research & analysis, and data from Company Insights, World Bank, the Federation of Exchanges as well as stock exchanges, and publicly available databases. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer price index (CPI), total investment (% of GDP), trade (% of GDP), household income, internet penetration, deposit interest rate, lending interest rate, central bank interest rate, unemployment rate, internet penetration and online banking penetration. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

    Forecasts:

    In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the particular market. In the market, we use both the HOLT-damped Trend method and the ARIMA method to forecast future development. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer price index (CPI), and central bank interest rate. The scenario analysis is based on a Monte Carlo simulation approach generating a range of possible outcomes by creating random variations in forecasted data points, based on assumptions about potential fluctuations in future values. By running numerous simulated scenarios, the model provides an estimated distribution of results, allowing for an analysis of likely ranges and confidence intervals around the forecast.

    Additional notes:

    The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.
