Russian Economic Development, 2015, issue 4, 44-47

Abstract: An analysis of the freight costs of Russian foreign trade cargos shows that the quality characteristics of Russia’s seaports have a strong bearing on the sea freight routing – seaports with low-quality infrastructure are apt to lose the competion. Not only Russia’s economic policy in the context of foreign trade should be constructed towards focusing on enhancing the terminals throughput of Russia’s seaports, but it also should address the quality of their infrastructure.
