Full version of the report (in Russian)

The government has decided to develop a National Data Management System based on Russia’s Federal Statistics Service (Rosstat). Within that framework, the integration of statistical, administrative and open data must be ensured. This will require the development of a new model of state statistics, which will meet the information needs of citizens, business, and authorities.

The report presents the key areas of structural and functional transformation in Russian state statistics as the basis for the future National Data Management System. In particular, it looked at organising dialogue between the statistical service and its users, integrating data from various sources, and intellectual work with information in the context of Russia’s currently digitalizing economy.

The report is based on research conducted by the HSE Institute for Statistical Studies and Economics of Knowledge (HSE ISSEK) in regards to improving the methods of statistical monitoring, creating and altering international statistical standards, and developing methods of statistical information collection, processing, analysis and distribution.
