How many foreign companies are under temporary management in Russia

Since April 2023, when the corresponding presidential decree was signed, the Russian assets of 27 foreign companies and groups were transferred to temporary management, it follows from the calculations of RBC on the basis of presidential decrees.

The first companies under this regime were Finnish Fortum and German Uniper. The latest is the Russian asset of the American packaging manufacturer Aptar.

Most companies fell under temporary management in 2026 — ten. In 2024, there were eight, in 2023 - six, and in 2025 - three.

By September 25, 2026, in seven cases, the temporary management regime was canceled, so the assets of 20 companies and groups remain under it.

The fate of the assets removed from the temporary management was different. For example, the Russian business of Danone was sold to Vamin R, and later came under the control of Ruslan Alisultanov and was called the Logic of Milk.

A rare scenario is the return to the former foreign owner: after the abolition of temporary management, the Italian Ariston regained control of the Ariston Thermo Rus.

In two cases, the assets were turned into government revenue.

Another major addition to the list occurred on September 17, 2026: the Russian assets of Auchan, Lemana ABM, Nestle and FM Group were transferred to temporary management. A few days later, the Russian business of Aptar was included in the list.

Most of the companies are associated with France – six. Four are in the United States, Germany and Cyprus. Two companies are in Denmark, Italy and the Netherlands. In some cases, the company is counted for two countries at once: for example, AB InBev Efes - Belgium / Turkey, Lemana PRO - France / UAE. Therefore, the total number of companies by country exceeds the total number of cases.
