The Central Bank of Russia plans to return inflation to its target of 4% in 2026.

This was announced by Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank Alexey Zabotkin at the Alfa Summit 2025, dedicated to digitalization in the macroeconomic context. He noted that this will allow interest rates to be gradually reduced to more manageable levels compared to the past two years. Zabotkin also added that no decline in fixed capital investment is projected until the end of 2025, with the volumes in 2024 exceeding those in 2021 by a quarter . These past investments impact the economy's productive potential, which in turn contributes to economic growth.
