Russian term or phrase: проблемно-тематический признак
В АТП [American Chamber of Commerce in Russia] сформировано 17 комитетов ***по отраслевому и проблемно-тематическому признакам***. На ежемесячных заседаниях комитетов представители компаний получают самые последние новости из тех областей бизнеса, в которые они вовлечены. Комитеты готовят аналитические материалы, а также организуют различные мероприятия, на которых обсуждаются конкретные и наиболее острые проблемы ведения бизнеса в России.

I am thinking of condensing this to "on industrial and problematic themes", doing away with "признакам". Is this OK? And what exactly does it mean anyway?

It means " the committees were formed on the basis of both particular industries and particular topics (current issues)".

issue specific criterion


Explanation:
I would elaborate the sentence as:

17 committees have been formed to monitor industry and issue specific criteria....

What do you think sir?

Generally monitoring is a subject matter of regulators and not committees, so I would like to correct my suggestion for sentence formation. So we can go for:
"to look into problems related to different industries and their specific areas". I hope, we now understand what the source text is all about and the translation can be amended as per one's style of writing. This is just a humble suggestion...

agree  Hasmik Avetyan: Just a little amendement: 17 committees have been formed on industry and issue specific criteria/ basis. // Literally it means: "Each committee was formed to focus on a specific industry or problem area".

  -> Thank you very much Hasmik! Actually just after submitting my answer, I reconsidered and proposed a different version which is close to yours. Anyways, we all translators are basically striving towards shortening the communication gap and we do our best.
