hello time to get the latest from the world of business aims to become one of the top ten high tech countries by twenty fifteen how the head of also not a corporation explains. let me give an example. of non silicon electronics electronics which is produced not from silicon with all speede of all of the silicon valley and that's something which is very interesting. there is the new generation of electronics which may be produced from not silicon from plastic. and that is something which of the unique possibility and we pick the best partner to the company a place to project and this company will become our partner in building conversion a new factory which will produce the the cutting edge computer made from plastic actually made from the same materials which of the year the beer bottle made from
11:25 am
and the potential of the cost reduction in this sector of electronic industry is. at the start of. existence you talked about a three billion euro hundred ninety billion rouble a year industry at least you said can we now start to raise that estimate we will be successes at the start and currently you would do have the final target the final key which is the thirty billion euro none of their production in russia thirty be done on your toes so to be don't deal with different than one hundred billion rubles and what did we achieve by now from the moment you just mentioned i know we already have more than ninety projects in total investment in this project which will be made by osama is more than forbidden door and what is it's especially important is that we was able to attract some six billion dollars of private pool
11:26 am
investment together in a line with before we don't of course none of us but that's something which proves that we are not just spending money financing because partner will spend their own money and even with a big of reports. and then when will russia produce a startup as famous as google or instead it takes minimal three five seven or ten years to develop a company from the guy like hewlett packard or microsoft or the world famous business i believe that we are already a lot on the garish stage but we're not yet on the stage of facebook and google you said forty million russians think you are a thief why do they think that and does it upset you. well that's that's a long story i believe that much more than you just mentioned and the reason is very simple if we come back to the privatization history of the reason is that. privatization was russia in the russia wasn't fair it wasn't fair. but it was
11:27 am
something which was needed for the country and if able unfortunately common the situation when they have to do it again i will do. russia's ministry of finance has effectively banned the national reserve fund from buying the bonds of irish or spanish governments investors are steering clear of the forms of both countries which bailed out their troubled banking sectors on thursday on deals jumped to their highest in the euro zone's history buffs seven point four percent. the federal reserve is to pump six hundred billion dollars into the u.s. spot of a fresh stimulus package to boost the country's economy there's months to seventy five billion dollars a month in a second round of quantitative easing the u.s. central bank will push as long term u.s. bonds by printing billions of dollars critics say a liquidity inflow will lead to inflation something the fed denies saying private
11:28 am
stimulus measures of more than a trillion dollars didn't have this effect the world's largest economy grew at an aerial rate of two percent until september but this wasn't enough to significantly cut high unemployment the interest rate has been left at a historic low close to zero. the world bank has cut its forecast of russia's g.d.p. growth for the next three years the bank some let's say russia has achieved a modest recovery but there are fears of a further slowdown my colleague charlotte last fall i asked the world bank's chief economist for russia's border to about the key drivers for the country's economy. i think what is actually happening in the past few months is that investment has been back and much of the growth was actually led more by investments and the kind of a cyclical rebound of restocking of inventories but that's going to cyclical part i think the good news is that we also see consumption gathering steam and this
11:29 am
reflects basically fundamental factors driving consumption searches the fact that. real incomes are growing again after the crisis and employment is lower than in then feared certainly and then in many other western countries and remember russian consumer is not particularly indebted compared to many western countries so there is a lot more credit rating that can be taken on by the russian consumer i think that all these factors are going to continue. providing the winter the sale of the russian consumption and growth in the next six to twelve months so we expect the growth this year to be about four point two percent and then solidified next year to about four and a half percent largely driven by gains in consumption. that's how the markets are faring so we've got stocks shopping higher thursday despite a bigger than expected rise and jobless claims as investors reacted positively to the federal reserve's latest efforts to prop up the sagging economy.
