The Boston Consulting Group has been active in the Russian market since 1990. At that time, the majority of BCG projects in Russia were dedicated to economic reforms in different branches of the Russian economy. Our client list comprised, for the most part, international organizations, such as the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and commercial companies. In 1994 we opened the Moscow office to be closer to our clients in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
During more than a decade of significant growth, BCG Moscow attained a leading position in management and strategy consulting in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States, which are among the world’s most dynamic emerging markets. With many consultants permanently working in our office and in addition consultants from other offices working as experts on projects in this market, BCG Moscow offers world-class consulting services to leading Russian and international corporations.
In 2007—at the initiative and through the efforts of the Moscow office—the company’s representation in Ukraine was opened, which instantly became the leader in the market. Shortly afterwards, the BCG CIS system was established to serve international clients entering or present in the CIS markets, as well as for the largest local companies.
A selection of BCG Moscow's past work includes the following:
Development of corporate strategy and organizational structure
Enterprise restructuring and reorganization
Supply chain and distribution strategy
Evaluation of investment projects
Organization of financing and attracting investors
Strategic mergers and acquisitions advice and support
Development of recommendations for effective management of cash flow and increased operational efficiency.
We are also proud of our not-for-profit projects such as serving as an adviser to the State Tretyakov Gallery on its sponsorship program.
BCG Moscow is home office to a diverse group of people. Consultants in the Moscow office are graduates of leading Russian and Western universities. Most of them came to the firm with an M.B.A. or other graduate degree in addition to professional experience.
