Abstract

Russia is now on the 4th place in terms of total actual catch in the world.
 Despite the fact that the main part of the Russian catch is in the Russian
 exclusive economic zone (EEZ), many companies have started to look for
 new fishing areas and targets beyond the waters of national jurisdiction
 (ABNJ). Our analysis shows that the largest share of fish harvested by
 Russia outside its EEZ is in NEAFC areas, the North West Pacific area is quite
 promising as well. Preliminary analysis showed some signs of insufficiently
 controlled activity of the Russian fleet in the areas of ABNJ. This requires
 additional efforts to improve the monitoring system, especially in "restricted
 areas”, marine protected areas (MPAs) and areas of reproduction.
