“RDIF does a lot.

And, despite the difficulties that they are trying to create for this structure from abroad, even in new, modern conditions, it surprisingly demonstrates not just survival, but results, attracting serious investments, organizing work within the country to find attractive investment projects in the Russian economy,” - said the head of state, talking with a fund employee.

Despite the difficulties, RDIF is succeeding, largely thanks to “professionals of the highest rank,” Putin noted, as quoted by TASS.

“Some countries have decided to automatically invest in those projects in which RDIF invests.

To Russian projects.

RDIF enters there, and they automatically immediately invest their money.

This is a sign of the high quality of your work,” the president added.

In December, the head of the fund, Kirill Dmitriev, announced that additional investments in the amount of 1 trillion rubles would be attracted by the Russian Direct Investment Fund from Saudi Arabia.
