“This is a natural progression of our growing service to readers and further adds value to our advertisers who make the site and our online web-magazine possible,” said publisher and editor-in-chief, John Bonar. The free site now includes a cutting edge page-turning web magazine, an archive, blog and a news section.

The magazine and the site are published by Media Solutions International of the UK. Managing Director Saif Bonar, who oversees web services for the company said, “This is one more building block in place as we construct Russia’s only completely bi-lingual business website. We are already achieving strong rankings on Google for relevant search phrases and we expect to continue our exponential growth in the months ahead. By launching the Russian language version of our archive and online material we are considerably broadening our appeal to a Russian audience around the world”.

The web magazine which is accessible from the site is bilingual. When the current issue is replaced by a new one every month the articles from the old issue join the growing digital archive on bsr-russia.com. Editorial coverage includes surveys of Russia’s economic sectors, profiles of Russia’s regions, and country reports on foreign countries trade and investment relations with Russia. There is also a Business Watch Section where developments in 31 economic sectors are reviewed and a portfolio of business events.
Back of the book sections include personal investment and travel articles.
