Abstract
Russian production and demand for ferroalloys are considered. The main ferroalloy producers are noted. The volume of imports and exports and the apparent demand for the main Russian ferroalloys between 1990 and 2014 are detailed. The change in the structure of ferroalloy production, globally and in Russia, is outlined. Priorities for the Russian ferroalloy industry in order to improve global and domestic competitiveness are recommended.
