Through the years we have published several volumes of our legal reference guide “Doing Business in Ukraine.” The latest edition is a comprehensive analysis of Ukrainian business laws and practices, and contains 650+ pages of highly valuable information (see table of contents here). Our guide has been well-received by the foreign community, including diplomats, bankers, and multi-national companies alike. Here are just a few comments:
"Your firm has compiled a very useful reference guide. I hope it will help investors open doors to doing business in Ukraine."
Carlos Pascual, Ambassador of the United States of America in Ukraine
"Your book will be a welcome addition to the Embassy library and will be of particular use to my Commercial Section when assisting British investors in Ukraine…. I will continue to appreciate your firm’s analysis of Ukrainian corporate legislation."
Roland H. Smith, Her Majesty’s Ambassador, British Embassy in Kyiv
"The book entitled “Doing Business in Ukraine” has clearly involved a considerable amount of work and will be an invaluable source of reference for addressing issues, especially in the area of taxation. I will ensure that some of my banking colleagues are aware of the publication."
Julian Exeter, Senior Economist, EBRD
"For me the guide "Doing Business in Ukraine" is an essential and easy to use guide for a wide range of legal questions when operating in Ukraine. It also helps to have a "second opinion" to what your local business partners tell you is the law or procedure. This "second opinion" is especially necessary as we found that most local business partners are not always up to date with the quick changing legal environment in Ukraine."
David Zak, CFO, Vetropack Group
"If you are developing business as a foreigner in Ukraine, you need guidelines. "Doing Business in Ukraine" is a valuable tool for my company, but also to give to potential customers to give them a better understanding of this amazing country. To develop business in Ukraine is not very difficult, but it is different from many Western European countries, and therefore you need partners to guide you to the right decision making. Our cooperation with Frishberg & Partners has been both pleasent and very productive."
Helge Ranvik, CEO, Scandinavian House AS
