21.11.2024

Between 11 and 15 November 2024, a delegation from law firm Pepeliaev Group consisting of senior partner Rustem Ahmetshin and partners Natalia Stenina and Ilya Bolotnov visited China on a further business mission.

Within the scope of the visit, the firm's specialists held a seminar in Shanghai dedicated to “Investing in Russia: commercial and legal aspects”.

Natalia Stenina presented a brief overview of Russia’s investment climate and the dynamics of Russian and Chinese investment cooperation. She also touched on the issues that Chinese investors most frequently encounter in Russia. During his speech on the Russian taxation system, Rustem Ahmetshin highlighted key aspects of the 2025 tax reform as well as preferential treatment in Russia for investments. Ilya Bolotnov dedicated his speech to the sustainable development of Russia's IT industry and associated legal matters.

Partner Yuri Vorobyev, head of the banking & finance practice Lidia Gorshkova and associate Anton Pchelkin joined their colleagues online. During their presentations, Pepeliaev Group’s lawyers delved into the most topical issues concerning reciprocal payments and the resolution of disputes between Russian and Chinese counterparties, as well as the protection of trademarks in Russia.

On 13 November, Pepeliaev Group’s partners took part in the Annual Cross-Border Investments and M&A Summit, which gathered over 200 representatives of Chinese business.

Moreover, in the context of this business mission, Rustem Ahmetshin, Natalia Stenina and Ilya Bolotnov held a series of meetings with current and potential clients of our firm, as well as with representatives of partner law firms.

Pepeliaev Group’s regular business missions to various regions of China are a central plank in our strategy for developing our long-term professional relationships. This enables us to continually make our dealings with our Chinese clients and business partners ever more effective.

For over a decade now at Pepeliaev Group, we have been operating a specialised practice group, the Chinese Desk, which provides legal assistance for Chinese investors in Russia. The firm’s lawyers provide legal support to Chinese companies in Russia at all stages of a business process, including selecting a region to invest in, minimising the tax burden, protecting IP and a host of other matters.
