KOROSTELEV & PARTNERS

Foreign Investment Approvals

A coordinated route through Government Commission, strategic investment and merger clearances.

We map the approvals required for a proposed investment or disposal before the parties commit to a structure. Our team prepares applications, coordinates supporting evidence and responds to questions from the relevant authorities.

The analysis covers the Government Commission framework, Federal Law No. 57-FZ on strategic investments and merger control administered by the Federal Antimonopoly Service. Scope and timing depend on the asset, ownership chain, business activities and current rules.

Frequently asked questions

When should we involve legal counsel?

Before signing binding terms or transferring funds. Early review identifies ownership, approval, tax and payment issues that may change the structure.

What information should we provide first?

Please share a short description of the objective, the parties and ownership chain, the assets involved and the intended timetable. Sensitive documents can follow after conflict checks and confidentiality arrangements.

Can you work with our advisers abroad?

Yes. We coordinate the Russian workstream with your legal, tax and financial advisers and agree responsibilities at the start.
