The salary dynamics of Russians in 2014
According to 2014 results, the average salary in Russia amounted to 32 629 RUB. (845 USD), the actual growth of wages was insignificant – only +0,7%. According to official average annual exchange rate of The Central Bank, there was a decrease in salaries by 10,5% in dollar terms (945 USD in 2013). In January-December 2014 the inflation level in general across the country exceeded the planned Russian Government expectations and amounted to 7,6%.
At the moment the significant regional differentiation of the wages is observed on the territory of the Russian Federation. Thus the ratio of maximum (Chukotka Autonomous Okrug) and minimum (Republic of Crimea) salary is estimated almost by 5,5 times.
Traditionally, the highest wage is in the Far North regions and equal districts, Moscow and Saint-Petersburg; moreover according to 2014 results, the actual growth of wages in Moscow was positive, as against Saint-Petersburg with a decrease in ratio by 0,1%.
The salary of Moscow residents is 1,5 times more than salary of Saint-Petersburg residents (61 357 RUB. and 40 676 RUB. respectively).
In addition to Saint-Petersburg, the decrease in 2014 wages was observed in other 28 regions of the country. The last place took The Chechen Republic (-3,4%).
In new subjects of the Russian Federation - Republic of Crimea (14 221 RUB.) and Sevastopol (14 333 RUB.) the salaries, if to take into account the recalculation of currencies, are significantly increased, but still considerably less than in Republic of Kalmykia (the closest list region, 19 384 RUB.).
Taking into account the accelerated inflation and difficult economic situation, it is expected that the current year won’t bring good news and the actual wages in the most regions of the country might decrease in the end of the period.
