The EBRD funds aim to help introduce in the Russian Federation a new concept of retail and international retail practices.

Transition impact:

The financing of IKEA MOS is expected to promote competition in the sector and raise standards in the retail market, which would eventually lead to a more efficient market environment. Local customers would be provided with an innovative, customer oriented retail environment. IKEA, which is regarded worldwide as a professional company with stringent operating rules and high standards, would help raise industry standards and transfer skills to various players across the retail and property markets as well as set sound corporate governance standards.
