All Siberia
All Siberia
When All Siberia began operations in 1998, the Russian business environment was just emerging from the chaos of the 1990s. Company registries were fragmented, and reliable information was scarce. Our early investigations relied heavily on local relationships and physical document retrieval.
Over the following decades, the introduction of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (EGRUL) and improved transparency laws significantly enhanced what could be verified remotely. Yet, challenges remain: nominee directors, opaque offshore structures, and politically exposed persons still require deep on‑the‑ground intelligence.
During the early 2000s, foreign investors poured into Russia, but many discovered that official records did not always reflect the true ownership. Due diligence firms like All Siberia played a crucial role in bridging the gap by cross‑checking state registers with interviews, site visits, and media analysis. Even today, a purely remote check can miss informal power structures that are common in certain sectors.
Our historical experience allows us to recognise patterns that newer market entrants might overlook. Whether it is a sudden change of director before a major deal or a registered address shared by hundreds of shell companies, we know what questions to ask. This knowledge, built over more than 25 years, is what sets All Siberia apart from automated database checks.
