Currency Inflows to Russia Dwindle as Trade Shifts to Rubles
More than half of Russian exports are paid for in rubles, according to Bank of Russia data published late Wednesday. Payments in so-called friendly currencies — mainly the Chinese yuan — now account for just a third of receipts, down from nearly half at their peak a year earlier, while 'unfriendly' currencies make up only 15%.

Use Hyper-Collaboration To Build A More Resilient Supply Chain
Igor Rikalo is President and COO at o9 Solutions. Since the outbreak of Covid-19 in late 2019, supply chain professionals have navigated numerous challenges. This year is no different, as ongoing trade negotiations have been top of mind for business leaders. While leaders continue to monitor the situation closely, supply chain teams are working to mitigate the effects that potential tariff increases may have on the near-term operational decision-making cycle. But the traditional decision making processes and data-sharing protocols used during this phase are often too slow, fragmented and reactive to meet today's rapidly changing demands. Real-Time Disruption Requires Strategic Coordination When a business faces a real-time disruption with bottom-line implications, cross-functional collaboration and shared data insights become essential. Timely coordination allows planning teams to proactively respond to developments that could affect supply chain performance at a critical stage. For example, if there is a sudden shift in consumer demand in a specific U.S. region, planners can redirect inventory to appropriate distribution centers—preventing stock-outs and maintaining high customer satisfaction. But effective collaboration must go further. To build true supply chain resiliency in short-term operational planning—typically defined as zero to three months—organizations must embrace a more integrated approach. This is where hypercollaboration comes in: an evolution of traditional practices that connect teams, systems and data across the network using next-generation technologies and shared insights. A Networked Approach To Resiliency Hyper-collaboration requires a digital planning platform that can enable end-to-end visibility and enable all stakeholders to align decisions across planning horizons. When applied internally across execution and customer service teams, and externally with suppliers and partners, it creates a shared layer of visibility that empowers teams to respond more cohesively to supply chain risks and opportunities. Here are three ways companies can apply hyper-collaboration in practice. Digital planning platforms that integrate execution-level data—such as logistics or order management information—can provide real-time visibility into inventory, order flow and shipment status. This helps teams quickly identify potential disruptions and address them before they escalate. By working from a shared dashboard, planning and execution teams can prioritize urgent issues together, resolve bottlenecks faster and maintain operational continuity. Interactive dashboards like Control Towers can link planners and customer service teams to real-time inventory and order data. Many companies still rely on manual planning processes to allocate inventory, which often requires teams to spend hours juggling priorities to meet on-time, in-full (OTIF) fulfillment expectations. Hyper-collaboration enables teams to automate allocation rules using scenario-based planning. This allows for a touchless planning model where customer service teams can focus on exceptions, resolve issues collaboratively and preserve the customer experience. Hyper-collaboration also applies across the broader supply chain ecosystem. Digital platforms can connect upstream and downstream partners, enabling shared visibility into demand signals, inventory levels and production constraints. By sharing timely data and surfacing joint risks and opportunities, organizations can involve suppliers and partners in decision making that supports resiliency across the short-, mid- and long-term planning cycles. A Proactive Path Forward Building greater supply chain resiliency will remain a priority—not only to address today's volatility, but to prepare for future disruptions. Hyper-collaboration enables cross-functional teams to align faster, share data more meaningfully and respond with confidence across the network. With every planning cycle, teams that embrace hyper-collaboration build stronger muscle memory and learn to better assess and mitigate risks while continuously improving operations. They respond faster, adapt smarter and improve resilience across the entire supply chain.
