Article Abstract:
Capital flight is a partial reason for many of the major problems in the Russian economy. These problems include a decline in output, a perceived shortage of investment resources in the economy, a shrinkage of the taxation base, and poor control over monetary policy by domestic monetary authorities. Capital flight is also a result of the weakness of the current Russian economy.
