We expect to see growth in Russian Consumer Electronics driven by demand for digital lifestyle products such as smartphones, smart TVs and tablets/ultra-thin notebooks. Penetration of these devices still remains low by developed market standards but with local players such as YotaDevices , Explay and FLY beginning to make an impact in the market, we expect strong uptake to continue. However, our outlook has weakened slightly given the unstable domestic economic environment and uncertainty surrounding the situation in Crimea. Indeed, we forecast real GDP growth to slow to 1.0% in 2014, a marked slowdown from the 3.4% outturn in 2012, as the fallout from the Ukraine crisis will worsen the cyclical downturn . We still expect the consumer electronics market to record growth every year in our forecast period to 2018, but there is increased downside. We now expect spending to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 2.9% 2014-2018, to reach a value of USD 35.446bn in 2018.

Snack pellets are semi-finished expandable snack that are manufactured using extrusion process. These are available in multiple forms, shapes, flavors, and textures. Hot air expansion and hot oil frying are two of the most commonly used methods for the conversion of snack pellets into finished ready-to-eat form. Conversion of snack pellets using hot air is considered to be healthy as it avoids the use of excessive oil and the formation of acryl amide that is a common cause for heart diseases and some specific cancers. Globally, snack pellets are preferred due to their longer shelf life, and high density that simplifies storage, and eases and economizes the cost of transportation. The rising living standards of the consumers and the globalization of the savory snacks industry has led to the rise in the demand for healthy and tasty savory snacks. The snack pellets fortified with nutrients are relatively more expensive than ordinary snack pellets.

The term BI refers to applications and technologies that are used for gathering, providing access to, or analyzing information about a company's operations. BI help organizations to acquire comprehensive knowledge of the factors affecting their business; for example, metrics on sales, production, and internal operations. Some of the BI tools and applications include query reporting, analysis tools, data mining tools, and data warehousing tools. SaaS-based BI refers to the deployment of BI applications as a web-based subscription service. SaaS-based BI is operated by a third-party organization as opposed to the installation and maintenance of an On-premise business system. In the pay-per-use model, BI is hosted by a third party from a remote location, and the outsourcing company pays according to the usage. Hence, enterprises employing SaaS-based BI can shift their focus from frequent software updates, maintenance, continual trouble-shooting, and increasing storage requirements, and concentrate on their core business activities.

In the case of Japan, a slightly different but similarly extreme, monetary experiment was responsible for the mini-economic boom seen over the past 12 months, but we are seeing increasing signs that this is fading fast. Real wages are collapsing, and consumer confidence is naturally being negatively impacted. While consensus expectations are for the impact of the sales tax hike to prove fleeting, we believe that the recent decline in activity is a warning sign of what is to come as people fear the sustainability of the current fiscal trajectory. Our recently-revised real GDP growth forecast of 0.9% seems well placed relative to consensus expectations of 1.4%.
