The list, yet to be approved by the governmental commission to improve the resilience of Russia's economy, is not by any means definitive and can be amended by the commission. That a particular company has been picked does not immediately guarantee it financial aid, the government's press released indicated. The main task in dealing with companies on the list is to maintain their sustainability using not only credit instruments, but also other measures such as government guarantees, interest rate subsidies, back tax rescheduling, government orders, customs and tariff policies etc. If necessary, the government will also take action to mitigate the negative social and economic effect of their shutdown.
To monitor the financial, economic and social situation on an ongoing basis, the ministries and banks concerned will create joint working groups, which will decide whether to draft a rehabilitation plan for a particular company or continue monitoring its condition.
