Zurich is proof that slow and steady wins the race. Zurich took its sweet time, accruing Chicken and Pressure Penalties in the interim, landing it a Speed Score of 0. It may have been a tortoise compared to peers such as Generali, which acted two months earlier, but it ran a lot further than the other insurers, all of which seem to be snoozing before the finishing line. Confirming that it has found the counterparty for its divestment in the form of local management is good progress, but of course Zurich needs to confirm the sale has actually been completed. Once done, it will have avoided the mistake of making a Circular Exit to another foreign company that would simply be filling Zurich’s shoes.
Divesting from Russia can be very difficult. But this didn’t stop Zurich, which is in the process of selling its Russian business to local management. It made a textbook Denouncer statement against Russia, and it's refreshing to see a company’s words and actions pointing in the same direction. Zurich is thinking a lot better than Allianz, which is keeping a 49.9% stake in its Russian business.
The race goes not to the swift, but to those who do not cut corners. We’ll give Zurich a medal for breaking ranks with the Swiss companies behaving like their nationality gives them the right to be neutral to whatever is going on in the world. Other Swiss groups, like Nestlé, have dug their heels in during the race out of Russia.

This is a company that has prided itself on not getting its hands dirty with Russia, specifically citing its long-standing policy of working with the Russian market from the outside. Given this pre-invasion distancing policy, it is surprising it took the company so long to make its move. Peers in online businesses moved earlier (Meta on 25 February and Alphabet on 4 March). For this delay, Amazon's Speed Score suffered a Chicken Penalty of 2. It also suffered a Pressure Penalty of 2 for moving after it received a letter from the Ukrainian government asking it to cut off the AWS Cloud Services in Russia. Also, the wording of Amazon's statement (referring to historical policies and not ascribing its "horror" to the perpetrator) puts it in the Mealy-Mouther category. If it has never wanted to associate with the Russian government, why can't it admonish the invasion properly?
Meanwhile, it made a big deal of the contributions to Ukraine, but as a percentage of its profits these are de minimis. For all these reasons, this without-excuse company could have got a rating of 100 instead of 62. What's really important, however, is that Amazon did the right thing and delivered impact. Our calculations show an Exposure level of only 1, partly on account of the sheer size of Amazon, in contrast to a Power level of 10. This meant the company was looking at a morally/commercially irresistible Return on Sacrifice opportunity of 1,000%. Amazon made the right decision even if it was a no-brainer.

The company discontinued "new capital investments" in Russia, and suspended media, advertising, and promotion. It reduced its Russian activities "significantly" to "focus" on providing "basic health, hygiene and personal care items" needed by Russians who "depend on them", as per its 7 March Announcement.
The company condemned aggression "in any circumstance" and said its hearts go out to "all people who endure the unspeakable toll of war". It said it would support its employees in Russia.

Abbott has three laboratories and manufacturing facilities in Russia. It also exports products to the country. On 4 March, the company said it "condemns the war and violence in Ukraine". At the same time, it said it would give financial support to Ukraine.
On 14 March, Abbott made the Announcement that they would be “suspending non-essential business activity in the country, including new investments, business developments and advertising”. They added that healthcare products are “generally exempt from sanctions for humanitarian reasons”.
It seems like Abbott and J&J have the same PR firm, or at least announced their very Partial withdrawals from Russia in the same way.
The model seems to work like this. Make an initial statement that reacts in shock to the invasion (both companies did so on 4 March). Say how terrible it is (both companies condemned the war in one way or another, getting Denouncer points from us). Make donations to Ukraine (which they both did). Then, think for a while about what they really should do. Abbott waited ten days versus J&J's three weeks. Otherwise, the actions were similar. Both continue to do business unless the products are deemed non-essential in some words by the company benefitting. Both are Confused Humanitarians. Both also said they would not make new investments, which we classify as Red Herrings because, in these times, it's hardly likely any Western company would pour money into Russia, and it has nothing to do with withdrawing from concrete business.
Like J&J, Abbott's initial generous donation, in the absence of any action, earned it a Do-gooder-do-badder classification. Its initial Denouncer words get the company a Big Talker classification for not putting its money where its mouth is. To make matters worse, when we consider what suspending "non-essential" products means in practice, it may be more of a non-event. The range – including nutritionals, vascular devices, diabetes car, vision care and pharmaceuticals – could all be argued to be essential depending on the definition used and its application. Indeed, we could not identify which of Abbott's products are still on the table. We also spotted no statement about how the non-essential cut would impact the company’s three factories in Russia or its approximately 3,500 Russian employees. Absent further explanation, the commitment to cease all advertising also looks weak since most sales may come from the salesforce and wholesale network. Weighing it all up, we are estimating the Degree of withdrawal at 1 point.
Back to the J&J comparison – Abbott got a slightly better moral rating because it moved faster. Although Abbott has higher Exposure to Russia, it also has more Power over Russia. The ratio of the two approximately equaled out, meaning both companies were looking at Return on Sacrifice opportunities of around 200%.

'Laggard' for a 0 to 5 Speed Score; 'Faint-hearted' for a 1 to 4 Degree Score.
Marubeni has had extensive links to Russia over past decades, such as commodities trading and infrastructure projects. One notable investment is its 20% stake in Russia's high-profile offshore joint oil venture project Sakhalin-I. According to Bloomberg, Japan's prime minister confirmed Japanese businesses will not pull out of the Sakhalin-1 offshore joint oil venture with Russia as the country's policy is "not to withdraw", on 1 April.
The company itself stated it will be freezing all new transactions in Russia and will seek to terminate existing deals as much as possible on 21 April. It said there will not be "any new Russia-related business" and it is "negotiating to divest from existing transactions".
On 6 May, Reuters reported that CEO Masumi Kakinoki said the business wanted to exit Sakhalin-I due to the war situation but was not doing so in accordance with government policy.
This is a rare case of a company that wanted to do the right thing but was held back by its government’s determination to keep interests in Sakhalin. The Japanese Prime Minister said it is not Japan’s policy to withdraw from Sakhalin-II, but this does not legally tie Marubeni’s hands. Respecting your government may be a good thing in a democracy, but we believe there are higher moral callings.
It is unclear whether Marubeni is genuinely concerned for Ukraine or if it is shedding crocodile tears. Nevertheless, we commend Marubeni for what it has said: its statements since the invasion deserve its high-scoring Russia Denouncer status.
Words, however, are only one part of our rating. Even if the CEO genuinely had good intentions, the fact is that the company hasn’t taken any useful action. That makes it a Big Talker by our rules.
Mr. Kakinoki, every day that the invasion continues should give you more courage to practice what you preach. You can be the unshackled hero, free of your bonds.
