A number of Russian regions have special legislation, special economic zones have been

In accordance with the Federal Law "On Foreign Investments in the Russian Federation",
the legal regime for foreign investors and the use of profits received from investments cannot
be less favorable than the legal regime established for Russian investors.
Exceptions of a restrictive nature may be applied to foreign investors only to the extent
necessary to protect the constitutional order, health, rights and legitimate interests of
citizens, national defense and state security.
Foreign investors have full and unconditional protection of their rights and interests. A
foreign investor, according to the civil legislation of the Russian Federation, has the right to
compensation for losses caused by unlawful actions or omissions of federal state authorities
or state authorities of subjects of the federation.
The law also provides for protection of foreign investors from unfavorable changes in
Russian legislation, provided that the foreign investor owns more than 25% of the company's
authorized capital. The law also provides for protection of foreign investors participating in
priority investment projects regardless of the foreign investor's share in the project's
authorized capital.
