Bank Koltso Urala: Russia gets ahead of other BRIC countries

5 September 2013 (09:21)

September 4, 2013. Bank Koltso Urala’s experts believe that Russia’s 64th position in the rating of the world economies’ competitiveness has to do with an improvement in the country’s macroeconomic indicators.

A competitiveness rating of the world’s economies in 2013-2014 was published at the World Economic Forum in Davos; Russia moved three points up on last year, outstripping Sri Lanka, Rwanda, and Montenegro.

The first three places in the rating are still given to Switzerland (the rating leader of five years), Singapore, and France; these are followed by Germany and the USA (which went up by two points on last year), Sweden (which dropped from the 4th to the 6th position), Hong Kong (which went up from the 9th place), the Netherlands (which dropped from the 5th to the 8th position), Japan (one point up), and Great Britain.
