PICC has said it has teams in Russia, about which we have not monitored any withdrawal Announcement.
Our Moral Verdict
Anyone might reasonably wonder why a company, which is an expert in risk management, would want any dealings in Russia, instead of trying to take down its exposure as soon as possible. Apart from the fact that a risky market doesn’t always mean higher risk or lower profits for the insurer, Russia isn’t necessarily the best place to be doing business. However, the real reason People’s Insurance is hanging on may be for an entirely different risk calculation: the danger of arguing with the Chinese government.

Sinochem is a large importer of Russian oil, from which we have not monitored an Announcement. On 7 April, Reuters reported Sinochem is honoring existing oil purchase contracts but ‘avoiding’ new ones, along with three other Chinese state refiners.
Our Moral Verdict

This is not the first time Sinochem was reported to abstain from Russian oil purchases, and we sincerely hope this rumor is true. By estimating its Chinese market share and potential Strategic Disturbance effect, Sinochem is sitting on a 5-fold Return on Sacrifice opportunity.

We can’t rate companies based on rumors, so we hope it will make an Announcement soon. That said, Sinochem is state-owned, and it would be difficult for it to rebel against China's policy of getting close to Russia. We aren't too surprised about the lack of an Announcement and this story only confirms our expertise with autocratic regimes.

We haven't seen an Announcement from Tesla. It exports its vehicles and provides support services in the Russian market, and, according to invoices obtained by CNBC, has bought aluminum from Russian giant Rusal. Indeed, it has been subject to a Twitter campaign calling for it to be boycotted for its Russian Activities and inaction, including requests for it to deactivate Russian cars. It has offered to charge electric vehicles at no cost in the afflicted region around Ukraine to help refugees displaced by the war, and to keep paying staff who were recalled to fight for Ukraine. It also opened a satellite to support Ukraine’s internet access at no cost. CEO Elon Musk tweeted, "Hold Strong Ukraine" and mocked people for supporting Ukraine with memes. He has also refused requests not to carry Russian state media on Tesla's satellites.
Our Moral Verdict
Tesla has disappointed us. Stopping sales of Tesla in Russia and confirming it would no longer import aluminum would have been a start. But the real lost opportunity is that it could 'unplug' the existing cars in the country through its Supercharger system. This would be a bold action since it would upend the company's policy of proactive customer service through a proactive customer 'disservice'. You can see why such a brand would not want its customers to see how dependent their expensive cars are or how easily they could be played with. However, the rules change when we need to undermine Putin, and Tesla's CEO is famously unafraid of taking stands on a huge range of topics when he's inspired. This would have triggered a Ripple Effect, not just inside Russia but across the world, that a Western entrepreneur could simply 'switch off' cars in Russia from his desk and this is just the sort of shock Russia needs. What a lost opportunity, over and above any economic effects of these expensive cars becoming useless in the Russian economy. The company should cease its hypocrisy of doing business with a country that is harming another that it is then trying to help. It's an Immoral Vicious Cycle that indirectly needs more reparations for more business, the profits of one being used to pay for the other. Leaving aside whether Tesla is making more money from Russia than it is spending to help Ukraine, it's a sick self-feeding cycle to be involved in.

Xiamen ITG imports Russian commodities such as wood and coal. We have not identified an Announcement.
Our Moral Verdict

It is disappointing not to see an Announcement from a company able to tell investors that Russia doesn’t constitute a major part of its business. Peer Chinese company Sinochem is at least rumored to be avoiding Russian oil, despite having a greater Exposure.

We don’t expect much from Chinese companies, but even a rumor from Xiamen ITG would be nice, even if it isn’t allowed to speak directly to the world.

XMXYG has been a major importer of Russian coal, and, since the invasion, it indicated on a Chinese platform that a small proportion of its business is in Russia. No withdrawal Announcement has been monitored.
Our Moral Verdict

It is disappointing that the company can make a statement that it isn’t highly exposed to Russia but, at the same time, not say what it will or won’t actually do. Peer Chinese company Sinochem is at least rumored to be avoiding Russian oil, despite having greater Exposure than XMXYG.

We don’t expect much from Chinese companies, but, even if XMXYG isn’t allowed to speak directly to the world, a rumor is always welcome.

This is a conglomerate with numerous Russian operations. We have not monitored any withdrawal Announcement.
Our Moral Verdict

The two remaining largest insurers in the world that haven’t started to move out of Russia are Japan Post Holdings and neighboring People’s Insurance in China. Although People’s Insurance has the excuse that its hands are tied by the Chinese government, Japan Post hasn’t a leg to stand on.

We have seen no statement from the Japanese Prime Minister calling for insurers to stay in Russia – in contrast to his instructions to Japanese oil companies. In that case, Marubeni’s CEO said he wanted to leave Russia, made a strong Denouncer statement against the regime, but explained that his government had effectively overruled what his conscience told him to do.

Japan Post seems to have no such conscience and no such excuse and has said nothing about Russia. Its hands are not tied, so it should get out and do what Marubeni was unable to do in another sector.

On 2 March, Bloomberg published an article stating Marathon was the largest USA buyer of Russian crude in 2021. Marathon declined to comment on whether it would halt purchases.
Date of Announcement: 2 March 2022
Our Moral Verdict

Marathon is not a major player in Russia. Even though the company is the largest US importer of Russian oil, the United States is such a small importer itself that it doesn't add up to very much in Power over Russia, nor even in Exposure to Marathon. The company can relatively easily source elsewhere in this commodity market.

Marathon is lucky compared to most of the major oil groups in the world which are up to their ears in Russia, with stakes in production and other operations inside the country worth billions and accounting for significant shares of their profits. Selling assets in a foreign country is clearly vastly more difficult and economically damaging than switching supplier. Many of these oil companies have made commitments to withdraw and have disclosed a fair amount of detail. So, it is disappointing that Marathon did not even respond when asked by Bloomberg if it would stop buying from Russia. Sanctions will no doubt force its hand.

Bank of America operates in Russia where it has 50 employees, according to the Financial Times. We have not monitored any withdrawal Announcement.
Our Moral Verdict

This is a rare case of a bank from a democracy behaving worse than one from a totalitarian regime that is in cahoots with Russia. BoA remains in Russia, while HSBC, with its close Chinese relations and perhaps facing the prospect of retaliation from the government, has at least made an effort to partially get out.

This is the severest admonishment we can give to a Western company that it is free to do the right thing and does less than another that isn’t free. There is nothing more to say.

According to Reuters, Exor increased its stake in Dutch telecom company Veon, which receives 30% of its revenues from Russia, to 5.08%. Regarding its direct business in Russia, EXOR has stated it will "continue to comply with and implement sanctions". It expressed “solidarity” with “all who are and will be suffering the consequences”.
Our Moral Verdict

Although Exor’s increased indirect investment in Russia through Veon is small, it is a very strange time to be financially supporting a company tied to Russia. This mixed signaling shouldn’t distract from the main point, which is that that it failed to make any withdrawal Announcement. The company’s statement about the situation in Ukraine didn’t take sides, making it what we call a Mealy-Mouther.

We checked Exor’s mission statement which says the company wants to make a “positive contribution to society”. Its Russian behavior shows the statement is nothing but empty words.

Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) sold its Russian business, Alliance Healthcare Russia, to a listed Russian health and beauty retailer named "36.6" in 2016. In return, it received a 15% stake in 36.6.

The company confirmed to the Moral Rating Agency (MRA) on 5 June 2022 that its ownership in 36.6 has been reduced to less than 5% as of 5 June. It did not disclose whether any of this reduction was made after the invasion.

The company also told MRA that it has not carried on any activities in the local market or made any investments since this sale in 2016 and that its continuing stake in 36.6 is a "legacy of the sale".

Prior to its response to MRA, on 10 March, the company said its thoughts were with the people of Ukraine, as well as "all those affected" by the "humanitarian crisis". It also said it was giving humanitarian support to Ukraine, including a donation of over $1 million.

Our Moral Verdict

WBA has to all intents and purposes moved out of Russia many years ago. According to our rating rules, it should have sold its remaining stake in Russian company 36.6. In the absence of information to show that this stake has been reduced since the invasion in its Announcement to us, we cannot give it credit for withdrawing.

The rating is low but if the company confirms that it has sold its stake, or that this is in process, we will re-rate it accordingly. Unlike other pharma and pharma retail groups involved in Russia, WBA is not a direct participant in the market and is a de minimis financial player.

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.
