During these difficult times, we believe it a task of utmost importance to find a stable foundation to maintain and develop relations in the future. In order to assess the current status quo and to look for solutions that will put U.S.–Russia relations on an upward trajectory, the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP) and the Russian-American Business Council (RABC) have spearheaded a dialog on lost profits and on opportunities that still remain open for our countries’ businesses.

On behalf of the RSPP and the RABC, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who made this report possible: the report’s contributors: Sergei Karaganov, Dean of the Faculty of World Economy and International Affairs at the National

Our team has worked in over 150 countries, on thousands of cases, for a wide range of leading global corporations, financial institutions and law firms. We provide specialist investigation skills, together with local jurisdictional knowledge, to enable you to identify and understand financial crime, integrity and reputational risks arising from a lack of knowledge of counterparties or local jurisdictions. We empower you to take better informed decisions, allowing you to achieve positive outcomes and realise the full benefits of your business activities. Our enhanced due diligence (EDD) services help clients comply with anti-bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering and other relevant financial crime legislation, such as sanctions compliance, or the evaluation of tax evasion risks. For banking and asset management clients, our services are designed to support on-boarding new customers or third parties, reviewing existing relationships, or as part of a remediation process. We support clients in assessing complex integrity and political risks in opaque and high-risk markets through local insight and contact networks. Critical to our intelligence-gathering capabilities are the languages we speak in-house, including all the major European languages, as well as Russian, Arabic, Farsi, Mandarin, Cantonese and Japanese. We have both knowledge of and access to relevant public and proprietary data sources, as well as a longstanding network of reliable, informed local contacts in the regions where we operate, cultivated over decades, who support regularly in undertaking local enquiries on a confidential and discreet basis.
