If there is any sector that demonstrates the difficulties of operating in the Russian property market, it is probably the gaming industry. Though regulated by the government, the sector is still subject to the vagaries of Russian president Vladimir Putin.

Clive Tilley, the British founder of international gaming management firm Tilley Entertainment, is one of the few foreigners with experience of running a casino in Russia.
