Roland Berger launched its first projects in the Soviet Union in 1988, at a time when international companies had begun to take a closer look at the Russian market. Today, Russia is one of the fastest growing markets for management consulting in Europe.

Until the mid-1990s, the major topics were market surveys and partner screening, but there was and still is growing demand among leading Russian companies for projects involving restructuring, business planning, and corporate strategy. Roland Berger's Moscow office, established in 1994, enjoys a high level of client loyalty and an excellent reputation.
