Western firms reportedly paid at least $46 billion in taxes to Russia amid full-scale war in Ukraine
Western companies have paid at least 40 billion euros ($46 billion) in taxes to Russia over the past three years, according to an investigation by investigative outlet Follow the Money published on June 10. This figure represents almost one-third of Russia's defense budget for 2025. Seventeen of the 20 largest foreign corporate taxpayers in Russia come from G7 and EU countries, Ukraine's main international supporters, the investigative outlet wrote, citing an earlier report by the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) and the B4Ukraine association. Foreign firms still operating in Russia represent a crucial lifeline for Russia's war chest amid Western sanctions and skyrocketing war expenditures. Earlier reports by KSE said that only 472 of over 4,000 foreign companies have withdrawn from Russia after the outbreak of the full-scale war in Ukraine in 2022, while 1,360 have scaled down their operations. Austrian bank Raiffeisen remains the largest European payer of corporate taxes in Russia, with 457 million euros ($522 million) paid only in 2023. Philip Morris tobacco company, PepsiCo, UniCredit Bank, Mars, and other Western business giants have also continued filling Russian coffers, even though Western governments have donated some $170 billion in military aid to Ukraine to face Russian aggression, according to the investigation. The firms provided various explanations for their continued presence in Russia. Some argued that their products are essential for Russian consumers, while others cited concern for the safety of their employees, the outlet reported. Follow the Money also noted that Russia makes it difficult for companies to exit its market, for example, by allowing them to sell their assets only at extremely low prices. Companies that have decided to leave the market reportedly had to pay over $170 billion in write-offs and exit taxes. Russia has previously directly seized assets of some companies that had remained in the country. Russian President Vladimir Putin called for punitive action against Western companies still operating in Russia, saying they must be "strangled" in response to what he described as Western attempts to suffocate the Russian economy. Despite the rhetoric, Russia continues to explore paths for re-engagement with foreign businesses. In February, Putin instructed his government to prepare for the eventual return of Western firms. Still, no formal requests have been received from companies seeking re-entry, according to Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council and former president.

Flight From UK Markets Is Broader Than Listing Rules, Rathi Says
The exodus of companies from the London stock market is driven by volatility in the pound, tax and pension policies as well as the 'sheer size of the US market,' rather than its listing rules, according to the Financial Conduct Authority Chief Executive Officer Nikhil Rathi. 'I'm not hearing that it's regulatory, I'm hearing that it's much wider in terms of what's happening in UK, European and indeed certain other non-European capital markets,' Rathi told the Treasury select committee on Tuesday.

Omdia: Eastern European Media Market Reaches $20.1 Billion with Significant Digital Growth Potential
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Eastern European media and entertainment market is projected to reach $20.1 billion in 2025, growing at an impressive 7% rate outpacing global industry averages, according to the latest industry analysis presented by Omdia's Maria Rua Aguete at NEM Dubrovnik. Traditional television continues to dominate the region's media landscape with $9.1 billion in revenue, but the most significant growth opportunities lie in digital transformation, particularly in streaming video and connected TV (CTV) advertising. Key highlights from the research include: Market composition: Traditional TV ($9.1 billion) leads, followed by online video ($4.6 billion), games ($3.4 billion), cinema ($2.25 billion), and music ($0.8 billion). Streaming market potential: With subscription video on demand (SVOD) penetration at just 34% compared to 91% in North America and 73% in Western Europe, Eastern Europe represents a significant growth opportunity for streaming services. Global players dominate the online streaming market: Netflix (25%), Disney+ (12%), YouTube Premium (11%) ; MAX (10%) lead the region's streaming market. CTV advertising gap: While global CTV advertising is rapidly approaching linear TV levels, Eastern Europe's CTV ad market remains underdeveloped at just 3% of total TV screen advertising (versus 23% globally); partnerships with YouTube could help broadcasters in the region. Platform landscape: Android, Tizen, and WebOS control over 70% of the European smart TV operating system market, with Korean manufacturers Samsung and LG accounting for 40% of the market. "Eastern Europe represents one of the most promising growth markets in the global media landscape, with significant untapped potential in streaming and connected TV advertising," said Maria Rua Aguete, Senior Research Director of Media & Entertainment at Omdia. The report highlights that while traditional TV will continue to grow modestly to $9.76 billion by 2029, online video is expected to see more substantial growth, reaching $6.10 billion in the same period. "The findings underscore the significant transformation underway in Eastern Europe's media landscape, presenting valuable opportunities for both regional players and global companies looking to expand their footprint. As digital adoption accelerates across the region, strategic investments in streaming services and connected TV advertising will be crucial for capturing market share in this high-growth environment,' concludes Rua Aguete.
