These are the companies that have pulled out of Russia since its invasion of Ukraine

Car shipments were paused. Beer stopped flowing. McDonald's shut down sales of Big Macs. Cargo ships dropped port calls and oil companies cut their pipelines.

Russia'sinvasion of Ukraine is leading some of the world's best known brands — from Apple to Disney and Ikea — to abruptly exit a country that's become a globaloutcast.

"Youbasically have Russia becoming a commercial pariah," said economistMary Lovely, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for InternationalEconomics in Washington. "Pretty much no company, no multinational,wants to be caught on the wrong side of U.S. and Western sanctions."

Along with needing to comply with Western sanctions against Russia, companies are increasingly aware of the potential risks to their reputations by continuing with business as usual in the country, while some have cited their own corporate responsibility standards for pulling back. They'realso expressing concern about the plight of Ukrainians as the war takes a mounting toll on civilians, with more than 2 million people having fled Ukraine since Russia's invasion of the country, according to the United Nations.

Complicatingcompanies' flight is an order from Moscow temporarily restrictingforeign investors from selling Russian assets. The Russian Economy Ministry has detailed new policies to take temporary control of exiting companies in which a foreign entity holds a greater than 25% stake, according to Bloomberg News. The proposals would allow for a court to freeze shares of foreign-owned companies in an attempt to safeguard property and workers, the news service reported.

"The Russian government is already working on measures that include bankruptcy and nationalization of the property" of foreign companies made to leave Russia, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said in a statement posted Thursday on the VKontakte social media site and cited by Bloomberg.

Here is a running list of companies that have scaled back or cut ties with Russia. This list will be updated regularly.

"A smart business proposal"

For many companies, exiting Russia is as much about business as it is about morality.

"It'sreally tough to do business in Russia under the best of conditions.Nowit's become just crazy. So getting out is a smart businessproposal,"said James O'Rourke, professor of management at theUniversity of NotreDame's Mendoza College of Business, who specializesin reputationmanagement and business communications.

"Thisislike going into business with the Manson family," O'Rourke added,referring to the followers of cult leader Charles Manson. "You honestlydo not want your name associated with those people, and it's probablynot going to cost you that much to disinvest.

As the war's human cost grows, companies will have to respond not just to sanctions, but public sentiment, too.

Company commitments to environmental, social and corporate governance, knownasESG, are being put to the test. ESG has become a buzzy acronymthat'sincreasingly seen as an important way for corporations to tout responsible business credentials.

"Butthere can also be anelement of 'green washing,'" where companies saythings that make it seemlike they hold certain values or are on theright side of ESG issueswhile their practices and behavior suggestotherwise, Columbia BusinessSchool associate professor Vanessa Burbanosaid.

"Stakeholders like employees and consumers will want to see if companies' actionsandbehaviors are consistent with the communicated support thatcompaniesare expressing for Ukrainians," she said.

However, there's also the chance that the boycotts by American and European corporations, on top of broad sanctions by Western governments, could drive more anti-Western sentiment in Russia, Brian Grodsky, professor of political science at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, noted.
