The best Russian specialists have taken part in the EMP implementation, they have been selected on a strict competitive basis and have been approved by the IBRD. The selected specialists have had additional training in some foreign companies.

The Upper Volga Branch (UVB) CPPI has carried out its activities in five oblasts: Vologda, Ivanovo, Kostroma, Tver and Yaroslavl.
