AGC is a Construction & Architecture company based in Japan. Current Russia status in our dataset is exited: an announced exit should still be checked against local filings, remaining subsidiaries and any sanctions-list matches. Eastern Europe Impact translates those facts into business consequences — sanctions screening, supply-chain exposure and reconstruction-side opportunity — with transparent confidence labels rather than speculation.
