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. Oil and gas sector is excluded If the oil and gas sector is excluded, then the value of deals rose by 37%, from USD35.5 billion in 2016 to USD48.5 billion in 2017.

  • Why the Russians Backed the Opel-Magna-GAZ Deal??
    Why the Russians backed the Opel-Magna-GAZ deal?? Evolution of Russian Market PC Regs. Credit: R L Polk Keep three facts in mind: the Russian car market will be the largest in ‘Europe’ by 2012. The average amount people are willing to spend on a car is rising rapidly ($21,700 in 2008). Foreign car makers are taking a growing slice of the market away from domestic producers. Potentially, Russia is one of the globe’s ‘prize’ markets and its domestic car makers do not intend to give it all away to foreigners. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the car market in Russia has split into two broad geographic segments: in west Russia, the affluent ‘have’ buyers acquire cars that match European standards. They are mostly full or Russian-built imports; in east Russia, the majority ‘have-nots’ buy cheaper, domestic cars. The challenge facing the domestic producers is that their customer base want cars of similar standards as the imports. Domestic and Foreign Shares of the lucrative Russian Car Market 2002 - 2008 So, what’s the problem? To start with, domestic cars are still plagued with sub-standard suppliers and counterfeit after-market parts. Quality control in the factory’s is embryonic, so electrical and trim parts are poor, engineering in unreliability. To cap it all, many domestic brands are tarnished by their terrible reputation established in the ‘90’s—with the fall of the Soviet Union—when production quality collapsed as they couldn’t pay their workers. Another obstacle is emissions compliance. Most domestic cars meet Euro 0 standards and only in 2010 will Euro 2 be required.

  • 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.

  • Pyaterochka Opens New Distribution Centre in Kursk Region
    PYATEROCHKA OPENS NEW DISTRIBUTION CENTRE IN KURSK REGION Kursk, 10 June 2021 – X5 Group (“X5” or the “Company”), a leading Russian food retailer (LSE and MOEX ticker: “FIVE”), announces the expansion of its logistics infrastructure in central Russia with the opening of a Pyaterochka distribution centre (DC) in the Kursk region. With a total floor area in excess of 40,600 sq m, the Kursk DC features five storage zones (fresh products, fruit and vegetables, frozen goods, alcoholic beverages, and a dry storage facility). Each zone has a specific temperature band that is best suited to keep relevant products fresh. At full capacity, the DC will supply food products to 730 Pyaterochka stores in the Kursk, Orel, Belgorod and Bryansk regions. The logistics facility is expected to handle 3,000 tonnes of goods per day, with its seamless operation supported by nearly 550 employees and 170 vehicles. Overall, Pyaterochka has created upwards of 2,400 jobs in the Kursk region. The launch of the new DC will enable the region’s manufacturers not only to reduce their transportation costs, but also to expand the geography of their sales. When operating at full capacity, the logistics facility will be able to handle products from about 1,000 suppliers, driving up the share of local producers in the chain’s regional sales (over 80% in certain categories). Today, Pyaterochka works with 17 suppliers from the Kursk region, including Kurskmakaronprom (dry goods), Kursk Milk (dairy), and Mushroom Rainbow (fruit and vegetables). The Kursk DC will serve stores previously supplied by the Orel DC, which is due to be closed because the capacity and equipment no longer meet Pyaterochka’s needs.
