“…In the Russian Federation, a large network of researchers has also produced major studies on inward and outward FDI in the country -and also some other post-Soviet economies In the monitoring work, a leading role was played by Alexey Kuznetsov In these studies, in the majority co-authored by various researchers, the focus was on mutual investment among the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States [Kuznetsov, 2013;Kuznetsov et al, 2012;Kuznetsov et al, 2013;Kuznetsov, (1) 2014;Kuznetsov, (2) 2014] and in the EAEU This monitoring prompted studies on the role of FDI in Eurasian integration [Kuznetsov, 2016] and relations with the European Union [Kuznetsov,(2) 2010] Studies dealt with both inward FDI (cf [Kuznetsov, (1) 2010;Kuznetsov, 2012]) but more often with outward FDI [Bulatov, 1998;Bulatov, 2017;Kuznetsov, 2009;Kuznetsov, 2011;Kuznetsov, 2021] In addition, multi-authored monographies analysed various aspects of capital exports form the Russian Federation [Bulatov et al, 2015;Bulatov et al, 2019] In St Petersburg, research focused on Russian outward FDI, corporate strategies and policy issues Andrei Panibratov played a leading role in preparing monographies (eg, [Panibratov, 2012]), articles on home country and State influences [Panibratov, 2016;Panibratov et al, 2015;Panibratov, Michailova, 2019] and the internationalization strategies of Russian multinationals [Kalotay, Panibratov, 2013;Dikova et al, 2019] From a global perspective, the Division on Investment and Enterprise of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and its predecessors 7 have been the focal points for the analysis of FDI in the whole UN system and for more than four decades It started its in-depth research on economies in transition in the early 1990s (see [United Nations, 1992]) It has been in close cooperation with the other centres, catalysing their research, and also providing the global context to the analysis of those centres It has provided its analysis in the World Investment Report series since 1991, and its staff also participated in the international debate on post-Soviet FDI 8 Its academic journal, Transnational Corporations, published articles by researchers from the international centres…”
