Mission

 

The IFS mission is to conduct research helping to solve complicated problems faced by the domestic and global economies as well as to introduce such research results into practice. Today's rapid economic developments require constant increase in knowledge and improvement and enhancement of professional skills. Research quality and conformity with up-to-date international standards are the main hallmarks of our activities.

With our professionalism and time-proven expertise, we give in-depth consideration to the critically important tasks given to us. We generate solutions in each particular case using our theoretical expertise and applied research tools. Combining fundamental and applied approaches, we integrate science into global business processes. Our efforts have enabled us to create a foundation for making uniquely versatile recommendations.

Focusing on the most pressing problems of global development and on issues vital to the Russian economy and Russia's regions, our institute occupies a leading position among international economic research organizations. While pursuing relevant theoretical investigations, we are very much engaged in solving practical problems and the IFS enjoys a reputation as a leading research institution in a number of important fields. Our recommendations have repeatedly influenced, directly and indirectly, economic policy and strategy for Russia's economic development.

No sound results can be achieved in isolation either from science or from current practice. Performing our analytical activities, we are oriented towards intensive research and robust business contacts with domestic and foreign leading research centers. In order to exchange experiences and raise the quality of our investigations, we closely cooperate with our counterparts in Russian and foreign organizations. This cooperation results in long-term joint projects and regular participation in nationwide and international conferences and symposia.

Our mission is based on the core belief that human resources are vital. Vast experience, high-quality education and shared aspiration for progress enable our employees to effectively carry out their activities.

Dear friends!
I am happy to welcome you on our website on behalf of the Institute for Financial Studies. The IFS is an independent research center founded in 1996 by a skilled team of young economic experts who set out to bring the latest developments in world financial and economic theory to bear on the decision-making practices at Russia's state-owned and private companies. These prominent scientists never ceased their efforts, continuing their activities even through economic hard times.
