Lecture on “Major Transactions” with Roman Sadovsky

The Center for Private Law Studies at the Department of Civil Law of the Faculty of Law at Moscow State University, in collaboration with the law firm “KKMP,” will host a lecture titled “Major Transactions” on November 19, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.

The session will be led by Roman Sadovsky, a counsel at KKMP, who has been practicing corporate law and corporate governance for over 20 years. Roman played an active role in the working group that developed the draft reform of the legal framework for major transactions and related-party transactions, which was implemented in 2016.

During the session, we will discuss the legal framework for major transactions and current approaches in Russian case law to their regulation.

In this session, we will examine:

• which transactions are considered major (from a legal standpoint);

• current approaches and “new developments” in judicial practice when assessing transactions for “majority”;

•  the procedure for approving major transactions; and

•  the procedure for challenging major transactions.
