DEAR FRIENDS,At the end of 2019, which we named a year of re-newal and transformation as we celebrated the 30th anniversary of EY Russia, we did not expect the message to mean so much to us in 2020. It took us mere days to adjust our habits, working ways and business approaches as we rushed through changes that had long been brewing but were not yet made. Predictably, this year’s report focuses on change, while its title reflects our readiness to embrace change and successfully adapt to it.

Transformation is needed across the board. As ad-visors, we have tried to contribute to tackling COVID-19: we launched a useful service — which op-erated during the first lockdown phase — to monitor state support measures for businesses and indi-viduals. We conducted research into the pan-demic’s impact on businesses and worked out a new strategy called Now. Next. Beyond. for business re-covery and continuity.

We did our best to keep jobs and made remote working arrangements for more than 3,500 em-ployees, with a broad array of training and devel-opment opportunities now available from home.

We continue to work closely with Russia’s Foreign Investment Advisory Council, which marked its 25th anniversary in 2019, and we are still holding our En-trepreneur Of the Year and Entrepreneurial Winning Women contests. We remain committed to all cor-porate social responsibility projects and continue to provide pro-bono services.

The pandemic gave us the catchphrase “progress is only possible under restrictions.” Certainly, restric-tions came as a shock to both the public and busi-nesses, but we were able to adjust and work under new conditions. We revised our business processes and offered clients new services. I am confident that Next and Beyond hold good news for us because our future is always in our own hands!

Enjoy the read!

Share of Russia’s assurance services market, FY20*

* In FY20, we audited 19% of Russian companies on the Forbes Global 2000 list. EY’s share was lower than before because one of our big clients was not included in the ranking, while the overall number of assurance firms was higher, and therefore others’ shares were lower.

ASSESSING SERVICE QUALITYAs part of a global initiative, EY Russia conducts annual ESQ (Expectations of Service Quality) and ASQ (Assessment of Service Quality) programs involving key clients in all service lines.

The ESQ program gives us a better understanding of clients’ expectations of quality before the start of an engagement so that we can design a more holistic approach.

The ASQ program measures the degree of client satisfaction with our relationship, enabling us to act on feedback and improve the quality of our services.

In the ASQ program, quantitative and qualitative statistics are collected and assessed by means of:

• Face-to-face interviews with the client’s key people, in-cluding audit committee chairs and directors, con-ducted by independent partners not involved in serving that client

• Electronic questionnaires used to gather objective feedback on specific engagements or the overall client relationship

DEVELOPING AND SUPPORTING OUR PEOPLE THROUGH WORLD-CLASS LEARNING

EY has a unique program called LEAD that creates a framework for career development, taking into account each individual’s unique abilities and needs. Each employee has a counselor to provide advice on building their career and enhancing their professional skills.

LEAD is closely linked to EY’s Performance Management and Development Process (PMDP), which helps our people monitor their performance and make appropriate improvements.

TRAINING IS TAILORED TO INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND DEVELOPMENT PLANS

EY has a special program for promising employees that lasts between 1.5 and 2 years, and is designed to prepare the next generation of partners.

Participants respond to a series of challenges that develop their leadership and entrepreneurial skills. This prepares them for their role as partners in a motivating and structured way and ensures transparency of the partner promotion process.

To promote women’s leadership, EY has designed the 1.5-day Navigator program for women at manager level.

The program, aimed at personal and career development, allows women:

• To give thought to their values and career aspirations in a comfortable and supportive atmosphere

• To determine their strengths and weaknesses as well as personal obstacles and how to overcome them

• To understand what sets each participant apart, her personal brand and how to put it across

• To gain inspiration from an EY woman partner and ask her about matters of concern

ENTREPRENEURIAL WINNING WOMENLaunched by EY Global in 2008, the Entre-preneurial Winning Women Program is de-signed to support entrepreneurial women and open up opportunities for career growth among women. The program in-cludes an annual competition and a series of learning projects and has been held in Russia since 2013.

The competition is open to women who are established entrepreneurs and senior exec-utives of major Russian and international companies. It is intended to encourage en-trepreneurship among women and ensure equal opportunities for professional devel-opment and career growth, thus promoting the economic development and prosperity of society as a whole. The competition pro-vides unique opportunities for women in

business, including information support, enhanced brand recognition and a wider network of professional contacts as well as motivation and inspiration for business and career growth.
