Over 400 Companies Have Withdrawn from Russia—But Some Remain

March 17, 2022


Since the invasion of Ukraine began, over 400 companies have announced their 
withdrawal from Russia—but some companies have continued to operate in Russia 
undeterred.

Originally conceptualized as a simple "withdraw" vs. "remain" list, our new 
list of companies now consists of four categories:

1) WITHDRAWAL - Clean Break: companies completely halting Russian engagements;

2) SUSPENSION - Keeping Options Open for Return: companies temporarily 
curtailing operations while keeping return options open;

3) SCALING BACK - Reducing Activities: companies scaling back some but not all 
operations, or delaying investments;

4) DIGGING IN - Defying Demands for Exit: companies defying demands for 
exit/reduction of activities

as an excel document rather than "previewing" for best file quality)

The list is updated continuously by Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and his research team at 
the Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute to reflect new announcements from 
companies in as close to real time as possible.

Our list has already garnered extensive coverage for its role in helping 
catalyze the mass corporate exodus from Russia.

When this list was first published the week of February 28, only several dozen 
companies had announced their departure.

Hundreds of companies have withdrawn in the days since, and we are humbled that 
our list helped galvanize millions around the world to raise awareness and take 
action.

Although we are pleased that our list has been widely circulated across company 
boardrooms, government officials, and media outlets as the most authoritative 
and comprehensive record of this powerful, historic movement, we are most 
inspired by the thousands of messages we have received from readers across the 
globe, especially those from Ukraine, and we continue to welcome your tips, 
insights, and feedback.

Please refer to Jeffrey Sonnenfeld's insights and commentary below on why our 
work matters.

and sanctions pressure Putin by crippling Russia's economy.
