  • "Waves" of the Russia's Presidential Reforms Break About Premier's "Energy-Rocks"
    AFRICA REVIEW EURASIA REVIEW "Waves" of the Russia's Presidential Reforms Break About Premier's "Energy-Rocks" By Dr. Zurab Garakanidze* Story about the Russian President Dmitry Medvedev’s initiative to change the make-up of the boards of state-owned firms, especially energy companies. In late March of this year, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev demanded that high-ranking officials – namely, deputy prime ministers and cabinet-level ministers that co-ordinate state policy in the same sectors in which those companies are active – step down from their seats on the boards of state-run energy companies by July 1. He also said that October 1 would be the deadline for replacing these civil servants with independent directors. The deadline has now passed, but Medvedev‟s bid to diminish the government‟s influence in the energy sector has run into roadblocks. Most of the high-level government officials who have stepped down are being replaced not by independent managers, but by directors from other state companies in the same sector. Russia‟s state-owned oil and gas companies have not been quick to replace directors who also hold high-ranking government posts, despite or- ders from President Dmitry Medvedev. High-ranking Russian officials have made a show of following President Medvedev‟s order to leave the boards of state-run energy companies, but government influence over the sector remains strong. This indicates that the political will needed for the presidential administration to push eco- nomic reforms forward may be inadequate. 41 www.cesran.org/politicalreflection Political Reflection | September-October-November 2011 Russia's Presidential Reforms | By Dr.

  • An Overview of Boards of Directors at Russia's Largest Public Companies
    An Overview Of Boards Of Directors At Russia’s Largest Public Companies Andrei Rakitin Milena Barsukova Arina Mazunova Translated from Russian August 2020 Key Results According to information disclosed by 109 of Russia’s largest public companies: “Classic” board compositions of 11, nine, and seven seats prevail The total number of persons on Boards of the companies under study is not as low as it might seem: 89% of all Directors were elected to only one such Board Female Directors account for 12% and are more often elected to the audit, nomination, and remuneration committees than to the strategy committee Among Directors, there are more “humanitarians” than “techies,” while the share of “techies” among chairs is greater than across the whole sample The average age for Directors is 53, 56 for Chairmen, and 58 for Independent Directors Generation X is the most visible on Boards, and Generation Y Directors will likely quickly increase their presence if the impetuous development of digital technologies continues The share of Independent Directors barely reaches 30%, and there is an obvious lack of independence on key committees such as audit Senior Independent Directors were elected at 17% of the companies, while 89% of Chairs are not independent The average total remuneration paid to the Board of Directors is RUR 69 million, with the difference between the maximum and minimum being 18 times Twenty-four percent of the companies disclosed information on individual payments made to their Directors. According to this, the average total remuneration is approximately RUR 9 million per annum for a Director, RUR 17 million for a Chair, and RUR 11 million for an Independent Director The comparison of 2020 findings with results of a similar study published in 2012 paints an interesting dynamic picture.

  • Position and Recommendations of the Board of Directors of PJSC “LUKOIL” on Items on the Agenda of the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC “LUKOIL”
    Position and recommendations of the Board of Directors of PJSC “LUKOIL” on items on the agenda of the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC “LUKOIL” On item 1 on the agenda of the Meeting: ‘On payment (declaration) of dividends based on the results of the first nine months of 2017’ Position: The current legislation provides for payment of dividends to shareholders of PJSC “LUKOIL” more than once a year. According to the Regulations on the Dividend Policy of PJSC “LUKOIL” (the Regulations), to ensure steady dividend payouts, the Company seeks to pay dividends to its shareholders at least twice a year: based on its results for the first nine months of the reporting year (the “Interim Dividends”), and based on the reporting year results (the “Final Dividends”). The Company’s interim dividend payment practice contributes to increase market value of its securities and attract strategic investors. Under the Regulations, the Company seeks to ensure that the amount of the Interim Dividends is at least 50% of the amount of the Final Dividends paid for the preceding reporting year1. The Board of Directors believes that the recommended interim dividend payment based on the Company’s results for the first nine months of 2017 in the amount of 85 roubles per ordinary share appears optimal, as it: • Complies with all the interim dividend calculation guidelines stipulated by the Regulations; • Reflects the Company’s financial performance in the reporting period and is economically relevant; • Will be welcomed by the investment community; • Allows the Company to maintain an optimum balance of its investment requirements and the competitive level of dividend payments; • Increases steadiness of dividend distribution.
