I don't know an in depth answer but going based off of the largest 115 companies operating in Russia this is what I found. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...nies_of_Russia

Industry: Count | Total Revenue (USD Billions) | Average Revenue (USD Billions)

Oil and gas: 18 | 381.72 | 21.21
Metal and mining: 15 | 97.04 | 6.47
Trade: 12 | 81.93 | 6.83
Cars: 11 | 35.66 | 3.24
Finance: 9 | 112.52 | 12.50
Power engineering: 7 | 54.59 | 7.80
Defense and machine building: 7 | 30.14 | 4.31
Chemistry and petrochemistry: 5 | 23.6 | 4.72
Telecommunications: 4 | 25.06 | 6.27
Development and construction: 4 | 10.53 | 2.63
Transport: 3 | 50.19 | 16.73
Distribution: 3 | 17.79 | 5.93
Alcohol and tobacco: 3 | 13.13 | 4.38
Construction of infrastructure: 3 | 12.42 | 4.14
Pharmaceuticals: 3 | 11.16 | 3.72
Investments: 2 | 39.32 | 19.66
Atomic industry: 1 | 14.07
Postal Service: 1 | 2.95
Information Technology: 1 | 2.76
Agriculture and Food: 1 | 2.67
Electronics: 1 | 2.76
Consumer goods: 1 | 2.43

So when it comes to Russia's largest companies, natural resource extraction and processing reigns supreme. Also sadly 82 of these companies are headquartered in Moscow and St. Petersburg only having 3.

here is the data for the 181 notable companies operating in Russia

Industry: Count

Industrials: 53
Consumer services: 28
Basic Materials: 18
Consumer goods: 17
Telecommunications: 12
Oil & gas: 12
Utilities: 11
Technology: 9
Conglomerate: 4
Health care: 2
Instrumentals; 1
Banks: 1
Aerospace & Defense: 1
Media: 1
Fixed line telecommunications: 1

in this list here are headquarter locations with more than 3 headquarters

City: Count
Moscow: 91
St. Petersburg: 14
Nizhny Novgorod: 4
Novosibirsk: 4
Samara: 4
Ekaterinburg: 4
Kazan: 3

Grega, that's because all the foreign banking reps/liasons were residing in Moscow on the verge of the collapse of the USSR, and the very same people were building the "future economy" and making their "initial capital" there, while stashing their money away on foreign accounts.

And that's how Moscow became "a country within the country."

And that's the reason why it's hated by the rest of Russia.

Yeah I kinda understood that, but still kinda disappointing/depressing when you see it on paper. Is there any serious talk about decentralizing Moscows economic and political grip? Any talk about incentivizing companies to move to other cities or moving certain branches/departments of government into other cities? For instance I think the Supreme Court is moving to St. Petersburg?

Do you think they decided to do it after a couple of glasses of beer at a bar? Ukraine has betrayed them. And Ukraine will do it again, because it is Ukraine.
