The lawsuit to cancel the auction results was filed with the Kuibyshevsky District Court of St. Petersburg, said Navalny’s representative Lyubov Sobol.

Rossiya Bank is negotiating the purchase of a stake in St. Petersburg Bank

The main shareholder of Rossiya Bank is Yuri Kovalchuk, he owns 30.3% of the bank, Interfax recalls.

Putin's friend, who controls 40% of Russia's oil, took first place in the ranking of rich people

Against the background of these business monsters, the successes achieved in the field of finance by direct relatives of GDP are somewhat lost. Thus, Mikhail Shelomov, the cousin of the head of government, owns 4% of the shares of Rossiya Bank and 12.5% ​​of the shares of Sogaz. Another successful businessman bears the surname Putin - this is Igor Putin, cousin Russian leader. He is on the boards of directors of many companies, in particular Volgaburmash, AvtoVAZbank, Samara Reservoir Plant, MTL production and commercial association and others.

Russian businessmen arrested in Spain had indirect connections with Putin

The interests of Gennady Petrov's son, Anton Petrov, and his partners intersected with the largest investment and construction group in Russia - Baltic construction company"(BSK). Bank Rossiya was among the shareholders of the BSK St. Petersburg branch until February 2005, and Putin’s cousin Mikhail Shelomov was listed as the founder of BSK-65 from May to December 2007.

How Putin's relative Mikhail Shelomov ended up with assets worth 20 billion rubles. Among the people close to the Russian president there are those who are not involved in politics or big business. They do not hold prominent government positions, are not members of the management of state corporations, do not receive lucrative contracts, and lead a modest lifestyle.

But formally they are listed as owners of companies through which billions pass, but they do not give the impression of billionaires. Apparently, real entrepreneurs can use them to further secure their own wealth. And make sure that any attempt on their personal business is perceived as an attack on the relatives of the president himself. About this in the material of Roman Shleinov.

The German Hermann Tilke is called the “court architect of Formula 1”, and the race tracks he developed are called “tilkedromes”. Squat fireballs fly along them at speeds of up to 300 km per hour, demonstrating what space materials and technologies are capable of. He created these “tilkedromes” in three dozen countries - from the USA to China. And at the end of 2016, he designed another track in Russia - not far from St. Petersburg in the area of ​​the Igora ski resort and can now become a real “court architect”.

Hermann Tilke

As Novaya Gazeta found out, the banker’s firms want to invest in tilkedrom Yuri Kovalchuk, businessman Vladimir Vasiliev and a distant relative of Russian President Mikhail Shelomov. Shelomov is the son of the cousin of the country’s president, which was previously confirmed to the Vedomosti newspaper by the press secretary of the head of state, Dmitry Peskov. Construction was planned to begin this year and be completed in 2018. The chosen location is also noteworthy - the Igora resort is known for the fact that funds for its development at 1% per annum were provided by an offshore company indirectly associated with the cellist Sergei Roldugin.

“It’s a very interesting track, very smooth,” Tilke told Motosport last November, noting that it could later be upgraded to Formula 1 level if desired by building a permanent main grandstand and expanding the infrastructure. According to him, construction of the highway near Igora should have started after the snow melted.

Autodrome is not a cheap hobby. Its approximate cost is 11 billion rubles (according to Business FM estimates). It is known where Kovalchuk and Vasiliev got their money. Kovalchuk is the main owner of the St. Petersburg "Bank Russia" and enters Forbes list with a fortune of $1 billion. Vasiliev is a major contractor for Russian Railways and the former hunting partner of their retired leader Vladimir Yakunin. Over the past four years, R-Industry Corporation, owned by Vasiliev, has signed contracts worth 17 billion rubles with the railway (according to SPARK).

But Vasiliev and Kovalchuk’s structure each have a quarter of the St. Petersburg company Igora Drive, registered in November last year to operate the race track. And half is from Shelomov’s company “Accept”. Shelomov has been working since the 2000s and still works in a modest position as the chief specialist of one of the state-owned companies in St. Petersburg. Nevertheless, he has assets worth 20 billion rubles.

"Only on paper"

“Why are you calling me, turning to me?” - Mikhail Shelomov is perplexed about the questions “ Novaya Gazeta"about the race track and Igor Drive. Having heard that his company “Accept” owns half of “Igora Drive” and that we are interested in whether the autodrome project is connected with it, Shelomov hastily adds: “I know, yes.” “I heard, of course. I heard, but no more,” he says.

Shelomov explains that he is not aware of all the subtleties and knows only what we know. “There’s still an empty field<…>. Everything is still only on paper,” he assures.

Mikhail Shelomov is 48 years old. Since the 2000s, he has worked as a chief specialist in the St. Petersburg office of the state-owned Sovcomflot, which deals with the maritime transportation of oil and petroleum products. He is modest, polite, answers questions himself phone calls and in no way resembles a billionaire.

The company does not disclose the income of ordinary employees. According to the portal Trud.ru, in St. Petersburg and the region, people in such positions receive an average of 40.5-42 thousand rubles per month. You can't build a race track with this.

But, as you know, Shelomov has other sources. For example, the companies “Accept” and “Platinum”, which own a small stake (in the amount of 8.4%) of the St. Petersburg “Bank Russia” Yuri Kovalchuk, according to the bank’s report. Among its shareholders are entrepreneurs Nikolay Shamalov, Gennady Timchenko and musician Roldugin.

Experts find it difficult to estimate the value of this bank's shares. Very approximately, if the stake (3.22%) owned by the musician Roldugin was valued by RBC at 550 million rubles, it can be calculated that Shelomov’s stake is worth about 1.43 billion rubles.

Since 2004, Accept has also owned 12.47% of SOGAZ, Gazprom’s insurer. At that time, the gas concern sold 49.98% of its shares for 1.69 billion rubles, then another 25.99% for 879.3 million rubles, and SOGAZ found itself under the control of structures associated with Bank Russia.

Considering the price for which Gazprom sold, the stake that Shelomov then received could initially cost 421.61 million rubles. Several years have passed. In 2013, Gazprombank valued SOGAZ at 49.5 billion rubles (according to Business FM). This means that Shelomov’s package could increase in price to 6.17 billion rubles.

In addition, since 2009, Accept has fully controlled the former subsidiary of the Gazprom insurer SOGAZ-real estate. Its assets in 2011 amounted to 1.07 billion rubles. SOGAZ did not answer the questions.

“These are not our companies”

As Novaya Gazeta found out, structures associated with the SMP bank of the brothers Arkady and Boris Rotenberg could increase the assets belonging to Shelomov’s company. In November 2009, Shelomov’s Acceptance became the sole owner of the Platinum company with assets worth 11 billion rubles. What connected this company with the Rotenbergs and where did it get its billions?

Before leaving Shelomov, she was part of the circle of companies associated with SMP Bank for many years. These companies formed a kind of ring - they owned each other (for more details, see the diagram), had a common founder who belonged to the bank, a common telephone number, a general director and were located on Sadovnicheskaya, 71, in a building next to the central Moscow office of the Rotenberg bank.

The general director of Platinum and the companies of the circle was Nikolai Tsed, the scientific adviser of Arkady Rotenberg at the time when he defended his Ph.D. at the St. Petersburg Academy of Physical Education. Rothenberg’s theme was: “Adaptation combat sports in the physical training system educational institutions pre-university level". He successfully defended himself in 2002. The career of Tsed, who worked as a coach of the St. Petersburg hand-to-hand combat team, was very successful. He moved to Moscow, where he first headed the enterprise of the presidential administration, and then became deputy director of Rosspirtprom. Now Tsed is the head of the administration of the Primorsky district of St. Petersburg. He did not comment on the situation.

The scope of activity of the circle firms was very diverse. One of them in October 2009 received 2 thousand square meters of Moscow stores from the bankrupt Samokhval group, which was financed by the Rotenberg bank. Another subsequently owned the Putinka vodka brand, which was valued at $540 million, as RBC reported.

And Platinum in 2008 was among the largest creditors of Rossiya Bank: according to the report, the bank owed the company 4.08 billion rubles. By 2009, the debt was repaid. At the same time, Platinum received a small stake (2.27%) in Bank Russia.

Shelomov did not speak on the topic of “Platinum”. A representative of Bank Russia did not explain how the company became its major creditor and then a shareholder. SMP Bank strongly denies any connection with these firms.

Attempts to talk to the current general director of Platinum and Acceptance, Tatyana Salova, by her direct phone number were unsuccessful.

"Why do you need to know this?"

In a conversation with Novaya Gazeta, Shelomov was perplexed why we were interested in him. Having heard that people who own assets worth 20 billion rubles do not often work as humble chief specialists of branches, he only said that “the reasons may be different,” without disclosing details.

When asked whether all this is really his property, Shelomov answers with the question: “Are you very interested in knowing this?”

Having heard that there are people who do not know about their companies, because they are simply covering for their owners, he sighs: “Well, those are your thoughts.”

When Novaya Gazeta got through to Shelomov in 2009, who was then working as a chief specialist in the St. Petersburg office of Sovcomflot, he replied that “Acceptance,” “one might say,” was his personal project. And that top officials have nothing to do with his business, as well as its promotion.

Race track architect Hermann Tilke declined to comment.

Sergey Roldugin. While working on Panama Papers, obtained thanks to the Sueddeutsche Zeitung and the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), Novaya Gazeta journalists asked musician and friend of the Russian President Sergei Roldugin a direct question about the offshore companies through which $2 billion passed. According to the documents, Roldugin was listed as the owner of some of them, some were owned by people close to him. The musician could not remember the names of the companies. And I didn’t understand why they were contacting him about them.

Petr Kolbin. An old acquaintance of entrepreneur Gennady Timchenko, Petr Kolbin, was listed as a minority co-owner (about 10%) of the large oil trader Gunvor, through which approximately a third of Russian oil passed. And in 2010 it turned out that Kolbin owner of 25.1% shares of Yamal LNG, which has a license for the South Tambey gas field (these shares were sold by Gazprombank in 2009 for 2.6 billion rubles). In 2011, Kolbin sold this stake to Novatek for $526 million and is now listed as Russian list Forbes with a fortune of $550 million. When Vedomosti asked Kolbin in 2012 about his large business, he replied: “I’m not that big. And not a businessman. You were a little misled." Friends said that Kolbin always led a rather modest lifestyle, and in the past he worked as a butcher. Presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov denied information from the Dozhd TV channel (September 2016) that Kolbin was allegedly a childhood friend of the Russian president, saying that he had not met Kolbin’s name among the head of state’s acquaintances.

The companies “Platinum”, “Real-invest” and “Stik” were created on the same day in 2004, each of them owned each of them. Their common founder was JSC YUSB, which was a quarter owned by SMP Bank and was located at its Moscow office. Another co-owner and general director of YUSB is Alexey Tikhomirov, a car racing enthusiast and partner of Boris Rotenberg. Together they founded the non-profit partnership “SMP Motorsport and Racing”.
Shares in Platinum, Real-invest and Stick belonged to the Cypriot Ermira Consultants, which was controlled first by the chairman of the board and co-owner of SMP Bank Dmitry Kalantyrsky, and then by cellist Roldugin’s partner Vladislav Kopylov (together with Roldugin they created the non-profit partnership “Support” children's sports").
The circle's firms had extensive and varied assets. In October 2009, Stik acquired ownership of four premises of the Samokhval retail chain in Moscow with a total area of ​​2.3 thousand square meters, namely at Zagoryevsky Proezd, 3, building 5 (there is now a Pyaterochka supermarket there), on Bulatnikovskaya, 9 (there is now a grocery supermarket "Magnit"), and part of the building at Akademika Volgin, 25, building 1 (there is now a store "Perekrestok"). This is stated in the decisions arbitration courts, Stick was suing to remove restrictions on this property. The Samokhval group went bankrupt in the summer of 2009. SMP Bank was one of the group's creditors.
Real-invest subsequently owned the Putinka vodka brand, which was valued at $540 million. And the Cypriot Ermira owned shares in the operating company of the REN TV channel, which also holds the license for the channel’s website, and a share in the Petersburg Television and Radio Company, which owns Channel Five and Radio Petersburg (as reported by RBC).
SMP Bank denies any connection with the companies Stik, Real-invest, Platinum and Ermira. “We have nothing to tell about the activities of these organizations,” said the bank’s press service. How “Platinum” with assets of 11 billion rubles in 2009 fell out of the circle of companies “Stik”, “Real-invest” and Ermira and went to Shelomov, SMP Bank does not answer.
