Abstract

The subject of the article’s study are the statistics on the volume of sales of four hundred leading Russian companies, consolidated by media holding «Expert», on the eve of the adoption of the order of the Russian Federation Government (July 28, 2017 № 1632-p) on the approval of the national program «Digital economy of the Russian Federation». The main program’s objective is the process transformation of real export-oriented Russia economy into a digital economy. The transformation process implies gross domestic product should be generated by the production of mainly «virtual» goods. Thus, the economy digitalization implies the reorientation the productive forces of society from the production and transformation of material objects to the production and transformation of numerical arrays sphere that are stored, processed and transmitted through modern IT-infrastructure. The extent to which the economy and industry of the Russian Federation are ready for such a transformation, the state of social and productive forces to support the process of the real export-oriented economy of Russia transformation into a digital one, can be indirectly estimated by the sales volume of leading Russian companies. It is assumed that the higher the share of IT-oriented industries and companies in the total volume of leading domestic companies, the higher the degree of transformation of resource-oriented and material-intensive economy into digital economy. If we assume that banking services constitute the main part of the modern digital economy along with IT companies and mobile data transmission companies, their share in comparison with the resource companies of the top ten leading Russian companies will be more than a third percents of the sales volume. That situation makes it possible to talk about a confident process of digital transformation of the Russian economy.
