The Federal Law №405-FZ dated 02.12.2019 amended the Administrative Offenses Code of the RF (AOС).

In particular, a new norm has been introduced that establishes the administrative liability of operators for violations of their duties in collecting of personal data, including via the Internet. This concerns such obligations of personal data processors as:

recording, systematization, accumulation, storage, clarification, updating, changing, extraction of personal data of citizens using databases located in Russia.

For violations in this business area the penalties have been imposed in the following amounts:

  • for legal entities – from 1 to 6 million rubles;
  • for executives - from 100 to 200 thousand rubles;
  • for individuals – from 30 to 50 thousand rubles.

In addition, the amendments to the AOС provide for increased liability for repeated violations of these norms, as well as for repeated violations of the law, such as: failure to fulfill their obligations by search engine providers or organizers of information distribution in the Internet.

Ranking
Investment efficiency of concrete manufacturers

Information agency Credinform represents a ranking of the largest Russian manufacturers of cement and concrete items. Manufacturers of cement, concrete and building materials with the largest volume of annual revenue (TOP-10) were selected for the ranking, according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (2016 - 2018). They were ranked by return on equity ratio (Table 1). The analysis was based on the data of the Information and Analytical System Globas.

Return on equity (ROE) (%) is net income (annual) to shareholder’s equity.

The ratio determines the efficiency of use of capital invested by the owners of the enterprise, and shows the number of monetary units of net profit earned by each unit invested by the owners of the company.

This indicator is used by investors and business owners to measure their own investments. The higher the ratio, the more profitable is the investment. With negative or zero ROE, it is necessary to analyze the feasibility and effectiveness of investments in the future. In such cases, the ratio value should be compared with other investments.

Too high value of the indicatщк can negatively affect the financial stability of the enterprise, since high profitability also implies higher risks.

To obtain the most complete and objective picture of the financial condition of an enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to the totality of indicators and financial ratios.

For the most complete and objective view of the financial condition of the enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to the complex of indicators and financial ratios of the company.
