The geopolitical shift in 2014 had a profound impact on how due diligence on Russian entities is conducted. Key databases became less accessible to foreign investigators, and the use of proxies became more prevalent. At the same time, our relocation outside Russia allowed us to work with greater independence.
We adapted by enhancing our international open‑source intelligence capabilities while retaining local contacts who could provide ground‑truth. Changes included restrictions on access to certain government registries and the increased importance of understanding secondary sanctions risks for non‑US clients.
Moreover, the phenomenon of “de‑offshorisation” pushed many Russian owners to repatriate assets through domestic holding structures, which sometimes made ownership even more opaque. Our team has tracked these shifts closely, ensuring our reports remain accurate and actionable.
