Why russian business is losing interest in buying assets from foreigners / Comment / RBK

In recent years, Russian businesses have faced new challenges when buying assets from foreign companies.

The market situation has changed, and now many potential buyers are demanding renegotiation of deals, even when they are in the final stages of negotiations. This phenomenon is caused by the deterioration of business performance that occurred during the period of deal preparation.

Thus, the interest of Russian companies in buying foreign assets is decreasing, which may lead to a change in the market structure.

Anton Borisyuk, Counsel and Head of Transactions and Corporate Law practice at Nordic Star Law Offices, confirmed the spread of such a trend. Details of Anton’s commentary are at the link.
