The economy of the Russian Federation is ranked the 6^th in the world and the 2^nd in Europe by the GDP volume (by the Purchasing Power Parity), and the 11^th in the world and the 4^th in Europe by the nominal GDP volume. Russia is among the leaders by mining and export of mineral resources; sales revenue forms the country’s budget. The experts of the Information Agency Credinform have made a research on the share of the fuel and energy complex in the TOP-30 of the largest companies, and on the validity of the opinion on insufficient diversification of the Russian economy.

Following the results of the ranking, the oil and gas companies still have the leading positions. However, it does not mean that the Russian economy is not diversified enough. Russia is ranked the 2^nd in the world by mining and export of crude oil and natural gas extraction, also it is the 1^st by export of natural gas in the world. That is why so many companies of the fuel and energy complex are included in the TOP-30. The number of these companies will be much less in the TOP-100, for instance.

Starting from January 1st, 2021 the new procedure for licensing of the quarantine phytosanitary disinfection is introduced.
