Investors leery of Western financial turmoil are clamoring for insight into Russia’s relatively safe havens, and they say the firms that do the best job of providing the type of guidance they need can be found at Renaissance Capital and Troika Dialog. The two outfits share top honors in the 2010 All-Russia Research Team ranking of the nation’s top equity and fixed-income analysts.
