SOGAZ has been consistently expanding its activity. This means devel- oping branch network, strengthening regional presence, being actively involved in all types of insurance activity and acquiring assets. And it is only logical that the company sees its authority increasing, credibility building up, and number of clients expanding. The SOGAZ Group initially formed as an insurance organization exploring the industrial segment of the insurance market is currently wide- ly known as one the nation-wide leading full-service insurer. The company's activity con- tributes to the social stability and favorable investment climate. ARD With all my heart, I am wishing the SOGAZ Group success in the further development of its insurance business, and its clients – confidence in the future, prosperity and welfare.

Greater Responsibility. SOGAZ GROUP INSURANCE / Dear shareholders, clients and partners, Dear friends and colleagues, The last year has become the first milestone in the course of implementation of the SOGAZ Group 2005–2007 development strategy aimed to strengthen the Group's leadership in the national insurance market. This year appeared indicative in many respects, and that is why we were ever so eager to summarize its results. The results shown over this period were cru- cial to our vision of the Group's future and the key principles and priorities of its development over the next few years. In this context, I am especially pleased to acknowledge our achievements made in 2005. A considerable progress was made in all strategic areas of our activity. The Group member- ship has been enlarged, the number of large-scale market clients has increased dramatically, the management structure has been set to the reorganization process, and the number of SOGAZ regional offices has almost doubled. Today we may assert with certainty that the adopted development strategy proved fully jus- tified. The SOGAZ Group's financial performance appears the natural outcome and the main proof of same. More detailed information is provided on the below pages of this report. APPEAL It may worth noting now that the growth rate shown by SOGAZ insurance premiums almost GEMENT doubled the growth rate of insurance market in general. The Group's consolidated premium got immediately close to the benchmark peg of $1 bln, which exceeds the target figures by more than a quarter. I think it would not be an exaggeration to say that 2005 has become one of the most successful years in the SOGAZ Insurance Group's history. Summarizing the results of the preceding year, I would like to express my thanks to all SOGAZ employees whose energy and dedication prove a plentiful source of the Group's dynamic growth. I express my gratitude to the management team for their toughness and will to win. MANA ii In many ways, you were behind the success achieved by the Group. I am also truly grateful to the shareholders, clients and partners of the SOGAZ Group for constant support and effec- tive cooperation. ARD CHAIRMAN'S Our efforts have one and the same focus – reducing risks for businesses and providing finan- cial coverage for their interests, as well as making life in our country more safe and pre- dictable. There is no doubt that during the past year we made a significant contribution BO to our common deal. / Chairman of the Management Board, JSC SOGAZ Chairman of the Board of Directors, JSCGazprommedstrakh E.G.

    Russian Arctic 6/2019 DOI: 10.24411/2658-4255-2019-10063 ADULT INCIDENCE IN THE RUSSIAN EUROPEAN ARCTIC WITH DEVELOPED MINING AND METALLURGICAL INDUSTRY A. N. Nikanov, V.M. Dorofeev, L.V. Talykova, N.V. Sturlis, I.V. Gushin Kola Research Laboratory for Occupational Health, Kirovsk, Murmansk region, Russia [email protected] The purpose of the research. The research aims to assess the adult incidence within the mining complex in the Murmansk Region (the Russian Arctic). Materials and methods. The analysis of the adult incidence change in 1989- 1990, 1999-2000, 2009-2010 and 2014-2015 was carried out. To assess the population health status, the incidence data was used in this work. The research covers the territory of the municipal formations with the city-forming mining and metallurgical complex (MMC) enterprises in the Murmansk Region. Main results and conclusions. It has been established that between 1989 and 2015 the adult incidence in the MMC territories, as well as in the Murmansk Region at large, clearly tends to increase (the coefficient of determination R2>0,7) for the following disease categories: neoplasms; endocrine diseases; diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs; diseases of the nervous system and sense organs; diseases of the circulatory system; diseases of the genitourinary system; diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue; congenital malformations. There is no doubt that a set of climatic, geographical and production factors, along with the pollution of the natural environment within the MMC territories in the Murmansk Region, has a negative impact on the health status of the adult population, including working individuals.

  • Trip Report Buryatia 2004
    BURYATIA & SOUTH-WESTERN SIBERIA 10/6-20/7 2004 Petter Haldén Sanders väg 5 75263 Uppsala, Sweden [email protected] The first two weeks: 14-16/6 Istomino, Selenga delta (Wetlands), 16/6-19/6 Vydrino, SE Lake Baikal (Taiga), 19/6-22/6 Arshan (Sayan Mountains), 23/6-26/6 Borgoi Hollow (steppe). Introduction: I spent six weeks in Siberia during June and July 2004. The first two weeks were hard-core birding together with three Swedish friends, Fredrik Friberg, Mikael Malmaeus and Mats Waern. We toured Buryatia together with our friend, guide and interpreter, Sergei, from Ulan-Ude in the east to Arshan in the west and down to the Borgoi Hollow close to Mongolia. The other 4 weeks were more laid-back in terms of birding, as I spend most of the time learning Russian. The trip ended in Novosibirsk where I visited a friend together with my girlfriend. Most of the birds were hence seen during the first two weeks but some species and numbers were added during the rest of the trip. I will try to give road-descriptions to the major localities visited. At least in Sweden, good maps over Siberia are difficult to merchandise. In Ulan-Ude, well-stocked bookshops sell good maps and the descriptions given here are based on maps bought in Siberia. Some maps can also be found on the Internet. I have tried to transcript the names of the areas and villages visited from Russian to English. As I am not that skilled in Russian yet, transcript errors are probably frequent! I visited Buryatia and the Novosibirsk area in 2001 too, that trip report is also published on club300.se.
