National Model of Target Business Conditions. How Will Economic Disputes Be Resolved in 2030?

Based on instructions from the Russian government, a special working group has been created with representatives of key government bodies, the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, companies, the bar association, academia, and the regions. Its goal is to formulate specific steps based on the needs of business to ensure favourable conditions for the effective resolution of economic disputes and make Russia one of the top ten countries in global dispute resolution rankings by 2030. The working group has prepared a draft roadmap of forty steps that envisage large-scale changes in key areas: from arbitration courts and mediation to the reform of legal costs and approaches to settling disputes with the state and enforcement proceedings. Once coordinated and approved, the roadmap will serve as a detailed reform plan and shape the dispute resolution system for the coming years. What are the main provisions of the roadmap, the proposed changes, and the reform projects in the legal sphere?
