Foreign companies in Russia have been facing a multitude of hurdles and difficulties for around one year already – in order to keep track and to be successful in the Russian market in these extraordinary times, experience, flexibility and the correct use of all management tools are essential. For example, foreign subsidiaries are currently realigning their business strategy, so it is advisable to use an external consultant, for example if the company is to be streamlined. Unfortunately, the liquidation of the Russian subsidiary is often the last step: there are many regulations to be observed when founding a company in Russia or liquidating a company in Russia. Here it is worth involving an external consultant who can take on the function of the liquidator.
