Research Services - Russia

As would be expected from the world’s ninth-largest country by size of population and the eleventh-largest in terms of GDP, Russia offers a wealth of investment opportunities in a wide variety of sectors, both in its domestic market and in the markets of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). It is seen as an attractive country for the location of production and services centres, and research and development labs for foreign companies. Despite some of the attractive features of the Russian market and economy, investors accustomed to the western way of business will find Russia to be different to what they have previously experienced. Although in many ways the Soviet era is now a distant memory, the country’s economy is still largely controlled by the state or through companies that are dependent on privileges assigned by the state. At the same time, sensitive sectors, such as the arms industry or mineral mining, are either completely inaccessible to non-Russian investors or permit foreign investors to hold only minority shares.
