Russian PM attended Investment Forum “Russia Calling”

 With Russia’s investment potential in focus at VTB Capital International Investment Forum 'Russia Calling', Prime Minister Putin and Presidential aide Arkady Dvorkovich spoke about building a better investment profile.

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin emphasised that tax incentives to promote investment would soon be in place.
“We are not cutting tax incentives but broadening them – to encourage investment in modernizing the economy.
Within days we’ll introduce a draft law to the state Duma to release investors from income tax when they sell shares – so long as they have owned them for more than 5 years and the equities are not traded on stock exchanges.
This should help develop venture capital and attract long-term investment.”
