June 1, 2015--The World Bank has updated its economic outlook for Russia for 2015 and 2016 to reflect a further stabilization of global oil prices. The new most likely scenario is more optimistic and assumes an average oil price of US$58.0 per barrel for 2015 and of US$63.6 per barrel for 2016.
On this basis, real GDP is projected to contract by 2.7 percent in 2015, before reaching 0.7 percent in 2016, and 2.5 percent in 2017. This is an improvement to the Bank's April outlook when real GDP was projected to contract by 3.8 percent in 2015 and modestly decline by 0.3 percent in 2016.
