According to him, the growth of the national currency - is one big disadvantage: the budget loses income, and domestic manufacturers and farmers lose competitiveness. In addition, the import substitution program is undermined.Strengthening of the ruble - the main economic issue of the outgoing week in Russia. It raised the experts and politicians, and it reached to the highest state level.On Tuesday, July 19, President Vladimir Putin at a meeting with Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said that the authorities should take into account the appreciation of the national currency in its future work.The next day expressed a business ombudsman Boris Titov."For the economy, which should seek to reduce costs at the stage of growth is more profitable to have a rate lower than the steady real effective exchange rate of the ruble," - he said.The next speaker was the deputy chairman of Vnesheconombank Andrei Klepach also usmotrevshy in a strong ruble threat of import substitution. In the fall of the dollar on one ruble of budget loses 160 billion rubles a year, he estimated.Fortress - 22 percentThe ruble against the dollar has grown significantly compared to the first months of 2016. In February, at the peak of the US currency gave 78.4 rubles, it is now trading at around 64 rubles. In just a few months the national currency has strengthened by 22 per cent.The ruble is in free swimming for almost two years. Until November 2014 the Bank of Russia conducted foreign exchange intervention - was spending foreign exchange reserves of the state to maintain the ruble exchange rate. It was decided to let go for the sake of conservation reserves. In early 2014, their volume reached 510.5 billion US dollars by the end of the year they fell to 418.9 billion. The size of 1 July 2016 - 392.8 billion dollars.Today, the ruble pressured two powerful factor. The first - a purely domestic - is associated with the onset of the dividend and the tax period in Russia.

Exporters against the rubleFloating exchange rate of the ruble damages prospects for economic recovery in Russia, indicated by Bloomberg in early July. Against the background of the strong strengthening of the national currency decline in GDP occurred (except in February - then no growth was recorded). Suffer primarily exporters, and they are very important for the economy of the state."Exporters are playing a big role for the budget. Strengthening of course reduces their ruble revenues and reduces their ability to maintain revenue coffers, "- he said in an interview with" Lentoy.ru "chief economist at Alfa Bank, Natalia Orlova.Advisor on Macroeconomics general director of brokerage house "Opening" Sergei Hestanov recalls that the budget is 43 percent dependent on exports."It's a lot. And when you consider businesses that service exporters - will be even more ", - said the expert.Forced easingIn the matter of deliberate strengthening or weakening of the ruble is all about the Bank of Russia and its authority over the foreign exchange reserves. Of course, if the government need to quickly stabilize the exchange rate, you can enter the hard currency control and fix it at a certain point. But this is too radical option, suitable for most crumbling economies like Venezuela and Turkmenistan. And it is not a means of salvation, but as a tool to quickly get rid of suffering.Soft alternative - foreign exchange intervention. Central Bank can enter the market and start buying dollars in reserves. Thus solved two problems at once: increased reserves themselves (the regulator is the goal - to increase them up to $ 500 billion, that is not enough more than 100 billion) and the weaker ruble (as a result of interventions in demand for the dollar will grow, along with its course).Several high-ranking persons almost simultaneously turned to the Bank of Russia with a request to influence the ruble. Belousov said that all the necessary tools that can weaken the Russian currency, are in the hands of the Central Bank. Titov said that the regulator should reduce the volatility of the ruble. Klepach called to restrain its rate.Consumer Activity in Russia remains low. Turnover of retail trade fell by almost six per cent in June
Tools idleHowever, the Bank of Russia does not listen to this advice. Free rate of the national currency - an effective regulator of the economy, I am sure the regulator. "The floating exchange rate is the mechanism that allows you to balance the interests of different economic operators, including importers and exporters", - told in the CB."Any measures of influence on the course - intervention or exchange controls - automatically reduce the credibility of the Central Bank policy. This will cause serious damage to economic growth ", - warns Natalia Orlova."Not a very logical and correct to artificially weaken the ruble, especially after already held a strong devaluation. At the current stage it is important to launch investment projects focused on the domestic market, requiring the involvement of the ruble mass investment, "- says associate professor of the Institute of Business and Business Administration under President Emil RANHiGS Martirosyan.
About the population in all these discussions, no one remembers. People are accustomed to floating ruble, he said in February the head of the Central Bank Elvira Nabiullina. Since then, and it is believed that the life of Russian ruble fluctuations have no effect.Russia has not yet implemented the program of import substitution and heavily dependent on foreign supplies. Especially consumer goods. Basically country sells oil and gas purchases - machinery and equipment. According to customs data, in second place in the structure of imports - food and drink, and then - drugs, cars and clothes.Therefore, a strengthening of the ruble could help the population, and the economy as a whole due to the growth in consumer demand. Turnover of retail trade fell in June by 5.9 percent, while the growth of nominal wages to nine percent reported in Alfa-Bank. In such circumstances, the strengthening of the ruble - the well-being of the population growth factor. But while preference is given to exporting companies - apparently they are more important for the state.
