This June 2009 issue of OECD's twice-yearly OECD Economic Outlook provides analysis of recent economic developments and economic projections for OECD and major non-OECD countries through the end of 2010. Its comprehensive statistical annex is a useful reference tool for international economic comparisons. This issue finds that a recovery is in sight but that damage from the crisis is likely to be long-lasting.

Russian Federation

Russia is suffering a severe recession, but the rebound in commodity prices and the expected effects of policy stimulus point to some recovery through 2009 and into 2010. If oil prices remain around recent levels the current account will remain in surplus and net private capital outflows will ease, allowing the exchange rate and foreign exchange reserves to consolidate their recent recovery. Inflation is expected to decline this year and next.
