From January to November 2025, 18,200 organizations posted losses totaling a record 7.5 trillion rubles, according to Russian media citing data from <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Rosstat<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"445\" data-end=\"680\">For comparison, business losses amounted to 7 trillion rubles over the same period in 2024 and 4 trillion rubles in 2023. The share of loss-making companies last year reached its highest level since the pandemic year of 2020, at 28.8%.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"682\" data-end=\"988\">According to Rosstat, the largest losses were recorded in manufacturing (particularly oil refining and metallurgy), wholesale trade, and mining (especially coal, oil, and natural gas). Developers, transport machinery manufacturers, and light industry enterprises are also experiencing serious difficulties.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"990\" data-end=\"1384\">A major factor behind the growing number of loss-making companies has been the economic slowdown: while Russia\u2019s GDP grew by 4.3% in 2024, growth fell to just 1% in 2025. At the same time, the extractive sector has been hit by sanctions as well as by the strengthening ruble, which has hurt exporters. In trade, the downturn has been driven by high inflation, which has reduced consumer demand.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1386\" data-end=\"1659\">The main negative consequence of rising corporate losses is a \u0442\u043e\u0440\u043c\u043b\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f economic development. Investment conditions deteriorate, innovation activity declines, and the competitive environment narrows \u2014 with large state-backed companies playing an increasingly dominant role.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1661\" data-end=\"1796\">Experts warn that widespread corporate losses could lead to a deeper sectoral downturn, a rise in debt defaults, and even bankruptcies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":151135,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-151134","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/151134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/151135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=151134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=151134"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=151134"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=151134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
