Regulatory

We help businesses navigate regulatory procedures and obtain the approvals required for transactions and other significant operations.

We work with Russian and foreign businesses on currency and antitrust regulation, corporate procedures with the Bank of Russia and the application of special economic measures. We engage with the Federal Antimonopoly Service, the Bank of Russia, the Ministry of Finance and sectoral ministries.

The practice focuses on complex challenges in a constantly changing legislative environment. We carry out legal check-ups, assess whether regulatory approvals are required, and analyse the requirements and possible risks when transactions are carried out.

Where necessary, we bring together the expertise of specialists in M&A, foreign economic activity, ongoing corporate support, economic sanctions and sanctions compliance. We support the antitrust clearance of economic concentration transactions with the Federal Antimonopoly Service, engagement with the Bank of Russia and the clearance of transactions and operations under special economic measures.

We advise on foreign investment and strategic companies, including the need to obtain the relevant approvals when the ownership and control structure changes.
