Abstract
Last year, the Bank of Russia pursued conservative monetary policy aimed at reducing inflation. As a result, the inflation was 5.4% (December 2016 compared to December 2015), being significantly lower than it had been in 2015 (12.9% in December 2015 compared to December 2014). It is now the new historical minimum – previously, the lowest indicator was 6.1% in 2011.
