Updated Working Paper: The Global Network of Oligarch Companies

The study examines global networks of companies affiliated with Russian oligarchs and shows that these networks remain largely stable despite sanctions, while partially adapting their structures through the use of tax havens. In addition, the findings suggest that sanctions have had only limited effects on firms’ international footprint and their access to institutional investors.

The research was conducted by an interdisciplinary team:

  • John Gallemore (University of North Carolina Kenan-Flagler Business School)
  • Jinhwan Kim (Stanford Graduate School of Business)
  • Marcel Olbert (University of Mannheim – Business School)
  • Iman Taghaddosinejad (University of Cambridge; London Business School)
