Leading analyst of Mobile Research Group Eldar Murtazin notes that the number of registrations of EP certificates is growing because it allows for transactions, document flow and other things. Most of both state and commercial relations are moving into electronic form. Based on this, the penetration of qualified certificates will grow. This is natural.

Accordingly, the number of such certificates will only increase. There is simply no other way," Eldar Murtazin noted.
