[QUOTE="Amgrad, post: 221905, member: 42426"] Hi, For open Day application at law firm with strong private wealth practice. Is it safe to mention Russia on my essay? I know when I worked 3 years ago at the UN the sanction just started to be lifted. I recently read in 2025 sources that countries where wealth offshores are mostly happening and where self made millionaire (not inheritance) are born. Russia is on top of both list, followed by China and the UK. But I also saw competitors like BCLP and HSF Kramer got fined and shuttered their offices because of serving Russian clients and managing related transactions within that country. Surprisingly I heard rumours that Unilever still operate in Russia this day? I just wondering whether the ban has been loosened or getting tighter instead. If so, then I must remove and just mention the next on the list like Indonesia and Turkiye. These countries are also part of emerging markets, geopolitically neutral and where exactly this law firm has offices. [/QUOTE]
