“When preparing the ranking, we consulted with a number of experts and heard a lot of reservations (that profit is a regulated indicator that can be artificially underestimated; that it is impossible to judge the activities of a group of companies by reporting selected legal entities; that rate changes currencies, although they are reflected in profits, but do not speak about the real state of affairs, and so on). We do not argue with any of these reservations; therefore, we do not draw personal conclusions, but show the big picture, ”Levashov said.
