In these two areas, more than 30% of businesses closed between 2021 and 2023.

- 31.18%
- In the field of cleaning with the participation of contract workers – by 14.87%,
- In publication – by 14.06%.

- In the field of insurance: stricter regulation of the industry (in particular, an increase in the authorized capital requirements for classic insurance to 240 million rubles, for life insurance – up to 380 million rubles),
- In the field of organizing and conducting games of chance, lotteries and betting, there is a tendency of the gaming industry to go online and strict regulation of the industry as a whole,
- In the publication, the impact of Internet technology and the withdrawal of advertisers.
