Russian M&A review 2017 3 Overview Although deal activity increased by 13% in 2017, the value of Russian M&A Deal was 12% lower than the previous activity 13% year, at USD66.9 billion, mainly due to an absence of larger deals. This was in particular reflected in the oil and gas sector, which in 2016 was characterised by three large deals with a combined value exceeding USD28 billion. The good news is that investors have adjusted to the realities of sanctions and lower oil prices, and sought opportunities brought by both the economic recovery and governmental efforts to create a new industrial strategy. 2017 saw a significant rise in the number and value of deals outside the Deal more traditional extractive industries value 37% and utility sectors, which have historically driven Russian M&A.

This publication looks in detail at policies that can help to achieve economic diversification.

    “Businesses are only waiting for the election year to end” 28 November 2017, Vedomosti.ru, Vedomosti Vladimir Potanin talks about the projects that are expected to increase Nornickel's value, takes pride in the Company's sorting out environmental challenges, and gives his analysis on the state of the economy during the pre-election season President of Nornickel As we enter Vladimir Potanin's Moscow Region office in the Luzhki club, we are greeted with a cheerful "What brings you here?” and a sweet cup of tea. What brought us there was, of course, Nornickel – the world’s largest producer of nickel and palladium, at the helm of which Mr Potanin spent the last five years – ever since he signed a shareholder agreement with Oleg Deripaska, with Roman Abramovich as an intermediary. During that time, Mr Potanin launched the biggest modernisation programme in the history of the Company and tackled the environmental issues of the facilities beyond the Arctic Circle, which were built as far back as 1930s–1940s by labour force from the Norillag. For Mr Potanin, improving the environmental situation in Norilsk is "a matter of personal responsibility". "No one was willing to do it, so we went ahead and did it", he says. The businessman looks enthusiastic as he talks about the technologies that will cut sulphur dioxide emissions in Norilsk, the Company’s outlook, the future of the industry, and the path of the Russian economy. Before and after the election – What do businesses expect from the election year? – Businesses are looking forward to its end, quite simply.

As well as 2 months of house arrest for “repeated violations” of the legislation on public meetings. So in Galperin’s case “previous violations” in February, March and June 2014 were counted – before the article about the repeated violations started to act. In addition, Ionov and Galperin are accused, among other things, in holding pickets, which, in accordance with Russian law, do not require concordance, what means that there can be no question of a violation of the rules of concordance.

Liuhto FOREIGN BOARD MEMBERS IN RUSSIA’S LARGEST CORPORATIONS: A SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON THE COUNTRY’S 10 BIGGEST FIRMS INVESTING ABROAD A foreigner born outside the former USSR occupies every fi ft h board seat in Russia’s 50 largest corpo- rations. Unsurprisingly, Russia’s private fi rms more frequently have foreigners on their boards, than the state-owned enterprises do. Less than 10 % of the board seats of Russia’s largest state-owned en- terprises have been given to foreigners, while the respective share in privately-owned fi rms is nearly 30 %. Th e share of foreigners on the boards of Russia’s biggest fi rms investing abroad is clearly larger than in the country’s 50 largest corporations, in general, indicating a correlation between an intensive foreign direct investment expansion and a higher proportion of foreigners on the boards of directors. Th e British, the Americans and the Germans hold more than half of the board seats given to foreign- ers, in Russia’s 50 largest corporations. Only two Chinese citizens could be detected among the nearly 100 foreign board directors. It remains to be seen what the impact of Western sanctions on the future board composition of Russia’s largest corporations will be. Th erefore, it is worth following how the number of Chinese board members, in Russia’s most signifi cant fi rms, will develop in the coming years, since the growing number of board seats usually refl ects increased FDI fl ows.
