In this edition of the Russian M&A Review we reflect on key recent trends and the effect that they will have on M&A processes in upcoming years. Our predictions are based on a thorough analysis of M&A market statistics as well as our diverse experience in supporting M&A deals and processes across the Russian market.

In addition to a statistical analysis we as before share our thoughts on complex current  issues, such as the restructuring of corporate debt by banks and the most prominent M&A trend (the one being seen in the Innovations & Technology sector). In addition, the Metals & Mining sector is showing increased activity and we also look at this theme in our review.
