About the event

Many Western companies are currently checking the possibilities for switching their Russian subsidiaries to a dormant mode and / or their liquidation. In such situations, it is especially important to protect the local management from possible risks and choose the correct legal approach.

Join us for a live round-table discussion on practical issues related to different scenarios for Russian companies – dormant mode vs. liquidation - on the 8th of September, 2022 in our office in Saint Petersburg. 

We will discuss:
  • Correct approach for winding down the business and minimizing legal risks for the local management;
  • Settlements with shareholders and counterparties – how to get around the difficulties;
  • Interim director – appointment and documents handover procedure;
  • Obtaining an SME status and further possibilities for decreasing the operating costs.

The discussion will be followed by a networking session with a great view on the Neva and the famous Aurora cruiser.
The discussion is fully onsite, no online connection is possible. Admission is complimentary upon prior registration.
