Business Restructuring in Russia:
About the event
Foreign companies wishing to exit the Russian market face increasingly difficult conditions for selling their business. Obtaining approval for such deals takes a long time and promises only limited success. MBOs (management buy-out transactions) are generally not welcomed by the Russian Ministry of Finance, the buy-back becomes virtually impossible, and the amount of payments to the state budget steadily increases.
The issue of making payments to and from Russia remains not less challenging.
During the event we will look at several cases from our practice and outline possible alternative options for restructuring existing legal relationships that can be implemented.
For any event-related questions, please contact spb@schneider-group.com.
