IMF Staff Country Reports-Russian Federation: Selected Issues
September 12, 2018--THE STATE'S FOOTPRINT IN THE ECONOMY1
The Russian State leaves a deep footprint in the economy. The state's size was around 33 percent of GDP in 2016, but close to 40 percent for the formal sector.
Available cross-country employment data suggests that the Russian state's is relatively large, similar to that of Scandinavian countries. In sectors where the state's share is high, economic concentration is larger, but concentration is large even in sectors where the state's share is low. Existing policies to protect and promote competition, including in state procurement, need to be strengthened.
A.Introduction
1.The mainstream narrative is that the Russian state is large and that its size increased considerably in the last few years.

September 12, 2018--FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND GROWTH AT RISK IN PORTUGAL1
A. Introduction
1. The macro-finance literature and recent experience provide compelling evidence that
financial imbalances grow in good times, creating downside risks to economic growth.
Indeed, when confidence in economic prospects is high and financial conditions benign, households, firms and financial intermediaries tend to take excessive risk, leading to an increase in leverage, maturity mismatches and other balance sheet weaknesses.2 In presence of elevated imbalances, a negative shock can force borrowers into default or fire sales, putting pressure on lenders' profits and collateral values, and disrupting financial intermediation. This can result in higher odds of severe and prolonged economic contraction.3 Thus, financial conditions that cause financial vulnerabilities to build up in good times could convey valuable information about downside risks to future GDP growth.
