The tightening of the exit conditions confirmed

On 30 October 2024, an excerpt from Minutes No.268/1 of the meeting of the Sub-Commission, dated 15 October 2024, was published on the website of the Russian Ministry of Finance, which lists the new rules that the Sub-Commission will follow when reviewing the transactions whereby non-Russian companies associated with unfriendly states sell their Russian securities, including shares/equity interests in Russian companies. The new rules are exactly the same as we advised in our previous alert of 11 October 2024.
