Abstract

The article considers some issues of limiting foreign participation in strategic sectors of the economy, including as part of measures to influence (counteract) unfriendly actions of foreign states.

Based on the analysis of legal norms, the author formulated criteria for determining the “nationality” of an investor, used to determine the conditions for admission of foreign persons to economic activities on the territory of the Russian Federation, control and other corporate rights in relation to business entities of strategic importance for the economy, national defense and state security.

The investor's “nationality” affects the timing, procedure for consideration and decisionmaking within the framework of regulatory approvals of transactions for the acquisition of assets of Russian business entities and the termination of participation rights in such companies.
