Russia’s Competitiveness in Conditions of Modern Instability

The main objective of the study is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the competitiveness of the Russian economy under conditions of increasing macroeconomic instability. The article examines key indicators of business activity, financial and logistics metrics, as well as the dynamics of social and investment activity of enterprises based on the results of 2024-2025. Particular attention is paid to the state of the domestic market, intercorporate and government-business relations, as well as the specifics of adaptation strategies employed by Russian companies. The study presents a comparative analysis of several indices, including the aggregated Business Environment Index, the Manufactured Goods Market Index, the B2B Index, and the Financial Markets Index, based on data from the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP). The scientific novelty of the article lies in the integration of multiple sources of statistical information and their interpretation in the context of contemporary challenges to national competitiveness. It is shown that the resilience and development of the corporate sector are largely determined by management flexibility, innovative activity, and the improvement of enterprises’ social infrastructure amidst external constraints. Key directions for enhancing the competitive advantages of the Russian economy in the medium term are formulated.
