The consumer market is formed by purchasing power. The higher the purchasing power and economic well-being of the population, the more it spends. The more people spend, the more attractive the country is as a market for producers. The scale of the consumer market significantly defines the political weight and importance of the State in global trade.
One of the main criteria for assessing the attractiveness and potential of the consumer market for the international investors is the total amount of personal expenses of the population on goods, services, material goods, in other words – the final consumption of the private households.
In Top-20 ranking by the sum of personal expenses on goods and services, Russia takes the sixth place. In 2018 the local households spent 2 191 billion USD on goods and services.
The consumption in Russia has features that affect on the total amount. In particular, a significant proportion of natural self-sufficiency. This may include self-repair and maintenance of residential premises, as well as the consumption of goods obtained from own subsidiary husbandry. Statistics does not take into account such purchases.
The first three places in Top-20 take USA, China and India.
According to the 2018 results, the U.S. population spent 14 141 billion USD on goods and services, that is 18.1% of the expenditure of residents around the world (Table 1).
Despite the fact that China is 4.3 times ahead of USA in terms of population, the consumer market of China is estimated at a smaller amount of 9 603 billion USD.
India takes the third place with the sum of 6 198 billion USD.

Information agency Credinform has prepared a review of trends of the largest Russian automotive companies.
The largest automotive companies (TOP-10 and TOP-1000) in terms of annual revenue were selected for the analysis according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (2015-2017). The analysis was based on the data of the Information and Analytical system Globas.
Net assets are total assets less total liabilities. This indicator reflects the real value of the property of an enterprise. When the company’s debt exceeds the value of its property, the indicator is considered negative (insufficiency of property).
