Russian Federation
The relevance of this study stems from the need to assess the actual impact of digital transformation on key macroeconomic indicators in the Russian Federation in the context of global technological competition and limited investment resources. Despite the declared high potential of digitalization, empirical data on its contribution to economic growth and labor productivity in Russia remains contradictory, which determines the relevance of the presented analysis. This article analyzes the impact of digitalization on economic growth and labor productivity in Russia. It examines aspects of the digital economy in industry and services. The focus is on a statistical analysis of the impact of digitalization on GDP and other economic indicators. Both positive and negative consequences of digitalization are considered. Based on statistical and sectoral analysis, this article establishes that the share of the digital economy in Russia's GDP is 3-3.6%, significantly lower than that of leading countries (7-12%). It is also found that the active implementation of automation, the Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence technologies allows enterprises to increase labor productivity by 10-25% while reducing downtime and operating costs. At the same time, systemic risks are being identified: potential job losses, digital inequality between regions, dependence on oil and gas revenues, and insufficient digital maturity in the state and municipal sectors.
