Keeping the export duty on steel products to lead not to decrease in the prices on the domestic market, but to their increase.
Now the state power authorities are discussing the possibility of limiting the level of prices in the domestic market on a weighted average level of 2014 taking into account the input deflators under threat of export duties on steel products. Is it real? The "Metallosnabzheniye I Sbyt" magazine addressed Boris Yarantsev, the Director General of the "Prommetiz" Association, with this issue.
- It is absolutely unreal because until mid-2014 the price of the metalware, for example, fell within two and a half years. So fixing the current average price level means driving metalware companies to a standstill. Let us first of all fix tariffs, prices on pig metal, and then talk about everything else. As for the tariffs I generally can not understand why do we have tariffs depending on inflation?
