Capital flight and capital outflows from Russia: symptom, cause and cure: May 16, 2007 14:41
Capital flight is a fuzzy and unhelpful concept. Russian capital outflows should be analysed in a wider context involving all major determinants of the risk and return faced by Russian savers and investors.

As reforms progress (financial sector reforms and a fundamental overhaul of the public administration are key), Russian ‘capital flight’ is set to decrease gradually. Even so, it will remain a feature of the economic landscape for many years. Sharp one-off reversals in net capital flows could disrupt the macroeconomy. A capital repatriation amnesty could prove counterproductive.
