For 28% of the companies, the declared OKVED did not coincide with the actual According to SPARK-Interfax, the actual type of activity did not coincide with the one declared during the registration of 28% of the companies included in the first sample of the reform. Analysts examined the reporting codes of 352 thousand existing legal entities. The biggest gaps were found in wholesale and retail trade transactions, construction and real estate. In addition, Rostat classified about 24% of the companies that reported retail trade as belonging to the wholesale sector. Almost half of the organizations listed as farmers actually turned out to be related to real estate transactions. The reform divided OKVED codes in the register of unified legal entities into application codes, specified by the companies themselves, and reporting codes, determined by Rostat based on statistics. Discrepancies may affect the business's accessibility to subsidies and preferential loans, as well as lead to changes in injury insurance premium rates - from 0.2% to 8.5% of the salary fund.
