The reduction of the number of new orders for construction products from other economic sectors is a priority problem in the construction sector in Russia, the problem which hinders the investment growth. It has been revealed that the slow industrial development and the decline of economic growth in trade and services sphere which is due to the latest economic and political events are the reason for reduction of production costs in construction. This hinders the expansion of construction at the expense of new units and what is more, blocks the already begun units. The Russian construction companies are not eager to invest into large-scale projects, preferring the more foreseeable perspective. Other limitations of the prospective growth of the construction industry, according to the researchers include the monopolistic position of some construction companies, the excessive administrative barriers as well as the defects in technical regulation and lack of balance between the Russian construction norms and rules and the international standards.
