Translation Note
As inevitable with any translation, this translation has discrepancies between the English and the
original Russian text, which arise out of the differences in common usage, legal terms of art, and
grammatical structure. In some cases we have chosen to use an Anglo-American legal term of art
over a direct translation. In other cases, where a Russian legal term of art does not translate easily
into English, we have used a term, which, in our opinion, best suits the context. Readers of the
translation should bear in mind, however, that such terms of art, both English and Russian, may
carry a range of assumptions and inferences that might not exist in the other language. Ultimately,
reference to the Russian original is necessary.
While we believe that this translation of the Russian Federation Law “On Joint Stock Companies”
is the most accurate and readable yet produced, if a substantive error exists in the translation which
is not explained by the above comments, please contact us.
