Webinar: Sanctions on Russia – how will they affect Polish business?

Sanctions imposed on Russia in connection with the armed conflict in Ukraine affect not only the Russian economy and Russians, but also Polish entrepreneurs with business relations with this market. What repercussions can the already existing restrictions have on companies and can their negative impact on business be minimised?

Sanctions imposed on Russia by the European Union, USA and other countries, institutions and international corporations are already beginning to have an effect. The ruble exchange rate is falling dramatically, the authorities are introducing restrictions on the sale of assets by foreigners, fluctuations in commodity prices are possible.

However, the Russian economy does not operate in a vacuum. Many European entrepreneurs, including Polish ones, have business relations with Russia, and trade between the EU and Russia was at a high level before the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In all likelihood, therefore, sanctions will also affect domestic business.
