In 2020, the value of total cross-border transfers of individuals (residents and non-residents of the Russian Federation) decreased by 4.9% to $63.5 billion compared to the previous year. The negative balance of the indicator remained virtually unchanged due to a symmetric reduction in the value of both outgoing and incoming transfers. The deficit in the balance of cross-border transfers of individuals to non-CIS countries increased but it dropped to the CIS countries.
