Raising Capital

Raising capital and corporate lending are burning issues on the agenda for top managers of Russian companies. In an environment of sustainable economic growth, having easy access to capital markets is a key advantage for companies looking to develop successfully. Stable demand for debt financing, an IPO boom and growing interest in new alternative instruments such as asset-backed securities, project finance and public-private partnership projects are major developments in the Russian capital market.

Given the high demand for capital, Russian companies should meet a number of requirements in order to be attractive as investments. They should have a clear tax track record, transparent shareholder structure, mature corporate governance, and provide quality, timely and objective reporting for stakeholders. They should understand that the easier access to capital markets becomes and the cheaper the financing they choose, the more structural changes they should be implementing.
