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.

Date of Announcement: 7 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict
P&G got almost everything wrong except the timing. It beat Unilever and L’Oréal by 24 hours, for which it got a Leader of the Pack bonus. After that, everything went downhill. Its move was Partial & Incomplete. Partial because it excluded health-related products, as a Confused Humanitarian does, and Incomplete by continuing to support employees, as a Nibbler does. Although it used the word "focus" to describe the continuing products, we don't know if it is focused on the majority of what it had. On top of that, after a Red Herring statement about not making future investments, it had poor Attitude, with a Mealy-Mouther statement that didn't clearly take sides. To make matters worse, it would be a small Sacrifice even if the company withdrew from every product because we estimate Russia at less than 1% of profits. To make matters worse still, this small Exposure compares to a Power Score of 8.5 since P&G employs about 5,000 people in Russia and could have had an Ostracizing effect by pulling so many consumer brands from the shelves. This meant P&G was looking at an 850% Return on Sacrifice. It's a pity it made only a slice of this commercial-moral investment. It needs to cut the rest and sell the factories.

It operates numerous services to support the life sciences sector in Russia, from pharmaceutical sales, distribution, storage, consulting and running clinical trials in the country. Its Announcement stated it would "cease any new business initiatives in Russia", but that it would be "continuing distribution of pharmaceutical products" where it will provide "limited" logistical support. It will continue with its 60 clinical trials in Russia. It believes not following this policy would likely "amount to punitive action against the most vulnerable". It said, "hopes are that there will be a speedy resolution to the conflict with minimal loss of life", and as of 9 March, committed more than $600,000 through grant donations.
Date of Announcement: 9 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict

It is difficult to assess how much AmerisourceBergen has really pulled out of Russia. Most of its vast range of Activities have been included in the decision for some action, but they have made many exceptions. The big picture impression is the company is trying to draw a line under existing business (such as distributing pharmaceuticals, and ongoing clinical trials in the country). The company doesn't seem to be taking on new clients and or any new projects for existing clients (with the exception of pharmaceuticals distribution on which the wording keeps that option open). Therefore, we consider the Announcement Full in Breadth of Activities and very Incomplete and vague in Depth, assessing the withdrawal at 25%, or 2.5 points for Degree. Unsurprisingly, like many in the pharma sector, the company justified its ongoing business like a Confused Humanitarian. We support exceptions for life-saving drugs subject to them not being available as generics or equivalent from local producers, and for clinical trials of life-saving drugs, but not in a blanket way as is used by many companies in the sector to cover pharma and anything related to health, nutrition and even food.

AmerisourceBergen gets credit for its fast action, but gets a weak Attitude score because its statement about the war was a Mealy-Mouther and its donation was a tiny portion of its profits. Companies in this sector undoubtedly have difficult choices to make, but we expect each to make a clear statement that it withdraws from all Activities as a default position and then disclose and justify any exceptions in a specific way. Being a business with a humanitarian angle isn’t a carte blanche for doing whatever you want.

It has "suspended" shipment of retail products to customers based in Russia and Belarus and will "no longer be accepting new Russia and Belarus-based AWS sign-ups and Amazon third-party sellers." The statement also reported "suspending access to Prime Video for customers based in Russia", and said it had stopped taking orders for New World, its only video game directly sold in Russia. As for the reason, it said, "We have a long-standing policy of not doing business with the Russian government" and it expressed "horror and concern" about the situation.
Date of Announcement: 8 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict

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 stated it recognizes "Russia's attack on Ukraine" as "an act of aggression", and concluded that its "involvement with Rosneft, a state-owned enterprise... cannot continue". It "will exit" its shareholding in Rosneft where it has held a 19.75% since 2013. The statement said that both BP-nominated directors resigned from the Rosneft board. Changes to its accounting treatment of Rosneft mean that the British gas giant will "no longer recognize a share in Rosneft’s net income, production and reserves".
Date of Announcement: 27 February 2022
Our Moral Verdict
BP is a mixed picture. It moved lightning fast and might have had a statement ready in advance of the invasion, beating its peers to the punch and setting off a Domino Exit within the sector: Shell and Equinor the next day, and Exxon Mobil, Chevron, and ENI a day after that, followed by many others in the industry. Moreover, BP made a picture-perfect leadership statement and its donations to Ukraine were generous, fast, detailed and involved its own employees in the field. On top of that, its Exposure is immense. 5% of profitability or cash flow is one of the highest we have monitored. So far, so good. However, its rating was harmed by absence of real actions: the assets must be disposed of. Not many people want to buy Russian assets and their value is huge, making it harder to find someone with deep enough pockets. We rate Announcements of unsold assets without a concrete timeframe with a Degree Score of 4 because, unless the sale of the asset actually happens, there is zero economic impact on Russia and it remains an empty promise. Companies may be unable to find a buyer or find offers insultingly low. Indeed, it's an interesting moral question how many low offers a company should be allowed to reject before accepting what may actually be today’s full market price for Russian assets. In fact, we predict that many promised sales of foreign-owned Russian assets will never be realized because local offers for them will be rejected and the process may run on long enough till the seller can justify canceling it. BP reporting it will not recognize the Rosneft assets and profits in its accounts does not mean that BP won't recognize them in the future if the shares can't be sold and BP can then justify patching things up with Russia. The company has been rated under the rules of Full but Incomplete, but this is one to watch for an Upgrade if BP indeed completes the sale or for a U-Turn if our fears come to pass. BP, currently you are classed as an Asset Sloth with 57 points. Make sure you offload your Russian assets without delay and don't be tempted to sell them to another foreign company which would simply fill your shoes with another foreign investor in Russia, as Shell is reported to be trying to do with Chinese buyers. If you do, we will classify it as a Circular Exit.

On 2 March, CA stopped "new" financing to Russian companies and "all commercial activity in Russia". On 22 March, it suspended all Russian operations. It expressed its solidarity since "the very first day of the war", which it dedicated to "the population of Ukraine", whom it called "victims of the war".
Date of Announcement: 22 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict

CA was unique in a depressing group of Western banks mostly doing the very minimum, some simply complying with sanctions or with amended sanctions enacted to close the very loopholes they were slipping through. Investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan made open-ended commitments with words like "winding down" or "no new business". By contrast, CA said it is actually suspending its business in Russia.

This may look like semantics, but the devil is in the detail with these statements and every word means a different thing: CA closed in Russia while others still operated with excuses or carve-outs.

Moreover, CA was the only Denouncer in the pack, slightly blemished in its enthusiasm by making a strange comment about being in solidarity since “the very first day of the war’, which makes us wonder why it didn’t say so at the time. That said, using words like “victims” won’t make it likely Putin is going to welcome CA back to Russia anytime soon, which is why our rating methodology gives points for words. By contrast, its US banking peers were either Cowards or Mealy-Mothers when it came to describing the elephant in the room. CA also made the best donation among the peer group relative to its profits. The combination of Denouncer statement and generous donation earned it the highest score possible for Attitude.

We are pleased with CA, but it has the chance to put even more distance between itself and the American banks – by finishing the job and getting out completely, while they are still trying to get to the first milestone of ceasing working with existing customers. CA should not, however, rest on its laurels of being the best of a bad lot.

AXA's Announcement showed it had stopped underwriting new insurance business and renewals for its Russian clients’ assets located in Russia. It also stopped new reinsurance, including renewals, as well as investments in Russian assets.

Regarding its 38% stake in Russian insurance company Reso Garantia, Axa stated it has "no operational or management control” and has decided to remove its directors from the board. The company stated it “condemns the invasion of Ukraine”.

Date of Announcement: 25 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict

Some companies take a long time to make a move but have a lot to offer when they do. Other companies are swift but do very little. Then, we have Axa, which did almost nothing slowly. Axa’s Announcement came after peers such as Generali, earning it a Chicken Penalty, and after public criticism, earning it a Pressure Penalty.

Axa's Degree score of 0.7 is about as low as you can get without doing nothing. We don’t give much credit for stopping new business, plus it did not take any action on its investment in Reso Garantia, apart from removing directors. Leaving the board may send a signal but it does nothing to damage the Russian economy. Axa should look to peer company Zurich, which is divesting totally from Russia. As for its promise to stop investments in Russian assets, how many companies with the understanding of risk that the insurance industry has would do such a thing in the current climate? We therefore class this statement as a Red Herring.

The irony of waiting so long to do so little is compounded by then making such a strong statement against Russia. For that, we define Axa as a Big Talker.

Axa and Generali are competitors in the market, but they are also competitors in the ‘moral market’, to such an extent that it is difficult to separate one from the other. Both curtailed their directly owned business in Russia with carve-outs (making them Nibblers in our terminology). Both failed to make any move out of their investments in minority stakes in Russian businesses. And both resigned from the boards of those companies, as though that somehow makes it okay. Both can be admonished for the same deficiencies in a single breath.

As a large and disparate conglomerate, Sony has a wide variety of business interests in Russia, and they have not been doing or saying the same things. Indeed, Sony Entertainment, for example, was criticized by the Ukrainian government for its Russian operations. In an official Announcement, a spokesperson for Sony Entertainment said it "will be pausing [its] planned theatrical releases in Russia." On 9 March, Sony Interactive said it "would cut off hardware shipments and software launches in Russia in light of the Russian government’s escalating hostilities", as reported by Tech Crunch. A day later, Sony Music Group said it had “suspended operations in Russia" but, by contrast, said it "calls for peace in Ukraine and an end to the violence".
Date of Announcement: 10 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict
This is a story with many 'Shades of Red' and a complex series of events to unravel. We monitored separate statements from three Sony units quite close in date and are treating them as one Announcement based on the date of the third, leading to a lower Speed Score but higher Degree Score. Sony's Announcement was Partial because we have no reports about it ceasing gold imports, nor curtailing its electronics exports. The areas of action were themselves Incomplete because Sony Pictures, Sony Music and Sony Interactive were all Mothballers. Combining the Incompleteness to the Partial produced 3.9 for Degree. The Leadership statement from Sony Music didn't take sides in the war and is classed as Mealy-Mouther, but Sony Interactive did take on Russia by ascribing the hostilities to its government. The average of these plus a small credit for a donation to Ukraine of only about 0.05% of profits produced 1.8 for Attitude. Sony's Speed Score was also eroded, first with a Chicken Penalty for being after Samsung Electronics and Honeywell, and further because it moved after Ukrainian government criticism of Sony Interactive inaction. The battery of Sony statements looks good on the surface, but the deficiencies on each led to a weak result. Sony needs to get all its divisions in one room, form a unified policy, move out of the remaining Activities and complete the withdrawal of the ones it has started.

The company classifies its activities in Russia as an investment, called AliExpress Russia (a joint venture, of which it owns 48%). AliExpress Russia currently controls about 10% of Russia's e-commerce market. Nikkei Asia first reported via an "employee with knowledge on the matter" that "its joint venture in Russia has laid off about 40% of employees since the invasion of Ukraine". This is believed to be a result of Western sanctions' impact on the Russian market, leaving these positions untenable for the company.
Our Moral Verdict
We were not sure whether we should compare Alibaba morally with Amazon, to show the contrast, or with fellow-Chinese company JD.com, to show the moral similarity. One is a comparison of apples and oranges and the other a comparison of two rotten apples. Comparing a company from a democracy with one from a totalitarian state is dramatic but perhaps obvious. We will look at Alibaba both ways. Amazon is one of a handful of companies in the world that has been able to get out of Russia completely. We graded it Full & Complete twelve days after the invasion. Alibaba is at the opposite end of the spectrum. It's a pity that the two companies don't have the same customers because the moral difference might win Amazon a lot of new users. Like JD.com, Alibaba operates in Russia with its strong local partner, with Alibaba owning 48% in AliExpress. Both JD.com and Alibaba ship Chinese and foreign goods into Russia from their own China-based platforms. Both have the Chinese government as cover for their inactions and both stand to gain from Russia's increasing dependence on trade with China. Indeed, we could say one is copying the other, were it not for the fact that inaction has no date to show which failed to act first. The only difference we see is in Exposure level. Alibaba's 48% stake in AliExpress is worth $3.2bn (1.25% of Alibaba's own market value), which translates to a 3.8 Exposure Score. This compares to JD's Exposure level of 2. So, mathematically, we can say that Alibaba is 75% less likely, or at least less motivated, to leave Russia. Unless of course one chooses to be more moral than the other!

our Moral Badges

Notice

The entire website and our rating methodology are based on a company’s involvement with Russia being measured by Announcements.

We measure this against the ways a company can be involved with Russia through its Activities.

Please also be aware of the Scope of our research, limitations due to Incomplete Information, our Rating Methodology , and our policy relating to any Errors, Omissions & Corrections.

Also, be aware that brands carry the rating information of the company that owns, controls or is associated with them as defined more precisely in Brands Displayed.

The basis of “Rating as of” date is explained here.

Want to give us information on a company?

We will be extending our service from the top 200 companies in the world to the top 500. We are interested in information about their continuing involvement with or in Russia from reliable published sources.

Want to suggest a correction to your company?

If you represent a corporation and feel it is inaccurately or otherwise unfairly presented, you should email us in the window below a scan of a document signed by a director of the ultimate parent company (“Parent”) we listed on the site, stating your position about our information as of the ‘Rating as of’ date listed below our information providing a clear factual statement in support of your disagreement in such a manner and in sufficient detail that we will be able to re-rate the company in accordance with our Rating Methodology. If you do not provide sufficient detail, we will not consider re-rating and do not have time to engage in discussions but will solely consider sufficiently comprehensive information via this process.

Contact Moral Rating Agency

You can contact us by filling in this form. We will respond if and when able and thank you in advance in case we are unable to attend to your communication due to the volume of inquiries.
