The global market conditions require Russian companies to adapt to changes. Regulatory inefficiencies should be eliminated and changed for modern contracting schemes. Combinative, multi-tasking and multi-level transactions should be preferred. The article deals with several kinds of complex multi-level transactions such as leveraged lease, full-package lease etc. Besides, particular attention is paid to different types of countertrade, including intra-firm trade, and pros and cons of expanding trade in national currencies.
