According to some reports, Nikolai Tokarev was Vladimir Putin's boss for some time. Sources of the Kommersant newspaper claim that Tokarev and Putin are connected by personal friendship. Before Dresden, Tokarev served in Leipzig, and then was transferred to Berlin.

In the period from 1993 to 1996, Tokarev was the head of the foreign relations department at the Russian-German Leasing Company, a closed joint-stock company, a subsidiary of the state-owned Sberbank of Russia.

The head of the Transneft company took a large loan from Sberbank. How will he use it?

Sberbank will help in this, which has allocated more than 250 billion rubles of a loan, and at an interest rate lower than the loan taken by Transneft from the Chinese, reports The Moscow Post correspondent.

The loan debt must be paid in full in 6 years.

Preferential terms of the loan are caused by a settlement agreement signed at the end of last year with an oil transportation company after a rather long lawsuit with a credit institution. But this may be fraught with Sberbank (SB).

The fact is that Sberbank's interest rates are tied to OFZ yields. And if this profitability suddenly grows, the state bank will suffer quite significant losses for itself.

"Pipe" King Tokarev?

The Ministry of Energy, headed by Alexander Novak, as the correspondent of UtroNews learned, submitted a bill to the government for consideration, which makes oil companies completely dependent on Transneft.

Under the terms of the legislative initiative, the operator of the main oil pipelines, Transneft, is proposed to be made the sole owner of them, and at the same time to consolidate the principle of "pump or pay", which will remove almost all possible risks from the state-owned company.

Among other things, the draft law proposes to consolidate the establishment of long-term tariffs for oil companies for the transfer of raw materials by Transneft structures. These tariffs are based on an agreement between Transneft and shippers on the construction and modernization of pipelines. Its essence lies in the fact that the pipelines will be built at the expense of the oil companies, and as soon as the pipelines are ready, they will become the property of Transneft.

Tariffs in the bill are proposed to be made dependent on the dividends of the company headed by Tokarev. Experts believe that this item will actually make it unprofitable for the top management of the backbone operator to cut costs and increase efficiency.

Tokarev's daughter Maya Bolotova and her husband Andrey Bolotov have become successful entrepreneurs in recent years - firms associated with them deal in expensive real estate in Moscow, Latvia and Croatia. Meduza publishes an investigation by Roman Shleinov, regional editor of the Center for Corruption and Organized Crime Research (OCCRP), about how the businesses of relatives and acquaintances of the head of Transneft correlate with enterprises that provide services to the state-owned company.

As noted in the investigation, Maya Bolotova, daughter of Putin’s former colleague and head of Transneft, Nikolay Tokarev, applied for Cypriot citizenship in 2014, indicating as the Cypriot address the office of Ronin Europe, part of the Ronin group, which specializes in trust management of large capital and works with the money of the pension fund "Transneft". In total, Ronin managed 64 billion rubles in 2015. In addition, the investigation refers to a conflict between the pipeline company and Rosneft. In response, Rosneft announced "attacks on companies with state participation."

An investigation published by Meduza says Tokarev's daughter Maya Bolotova and her husband Andrey Bolotov have become successful entrepreneurs in recent years. In the past, Maya Bolotova was a co-owner of a pharmaceutical company, and together with her husband controlled a company that supplied and washed bed linen for Russian trains. Today, the Bolotov companies are associated with a historic villa in Croatia and an elite residential complex in Jurmala.

“I started working in 1975 at the Ministry of the Navy (at the age of 18, in 1980 I graduated from the Moscow Technological Institute of the Food Industry with a degree in engineer-economist. - Vedomosti), she said about the beginning of her career in an interview corporate newspaper VPB. – In 1989, I was transferred to the Sea Joint-Stock Bank. During this time I have gained experience, found friends and like-minded people. At a certain moment, I realized that I had the strength and opportunity to try my hand at my own business. So in 1994 the idea to create the VPB was born.”

A year later, VPB was founded with an authorized capital of 6 million rubles. Serious structures turned out to be among like-minded people. The archived version of the VPB website names the major participants of the bank in 2000–2001. Sovtransavto, the Sakhalin Shipping Company, Obschemasheksport, the Temp radio plant in Moscow, and the state-owned Zarubezhneft, headed by the then current president of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev, an old acquaintance of President Vladimir Putin.

How did a young bank manage to get such a solid participant? An acquaintance of Tokarev recalls that at first the Plato insurance company, which belonged to Tokarev's friend Vladimir Kushnarev, and his wife Tatyana, became a client of VPB. In 2000, Tokarev invited Kushnarev to Zarubezhneft as his first deputy for finance, and soon the VPB listed her among its participants. Kushnarev and his wife were themselves clients of the VPB.

The main owners of VPB, Markus and Bedzhamov, sit on the board of directors of the Sakhalin Shipping Company affiliated with the bank, together with Tokarev's son-in-law Andrei Bolotov, a member of the presidium of the Russian Bobsleigh Federation. It is headed by Bedzhamov.

Heads of state companies. Genealogy. It is difficult to understand where the personal life of the Russian elite ends and politics begins.

The daughter of Transneft President Nikolai Tokarev, Maya, married Andrey Bolotov. In the late nineties, he worked at the Russian-German Leasing Company (equipment was leased to Russian enterprises, the main shareholder was Sberbank), and since 2000, at Deutsche Leasing Vostok.

Family clans of Transneft: Chemezovs, Tokarevs, Bolotovs

Nikolai Tokarev, director of the Transneft corporation, runs what is probably Russia's most corrupt natural monopoly. FSB General Tokarev has a large family. His matchmaker is a retired lieutenant colonel of the FSO Yuri Bolotov (pictured), a companion of General Alexander Korzhakov in the Association of Veterans and Employees of the Presidential Security Service. Previously, the business of Bolotov Sr. was associated with the Informenergo company, which operated under RAO UES. The lieutenant colonel has a daughter, Olga Bolotova, and a son, Andrei Bolotov, the husband of Transneft's daughter Maya Bolotova (Tokareva) and a friend of Stanislav Chemezov, the offspring of Sergei Chemezov, the head of Russian Technologies, a KGB foreign intelligence officer.

By 2004, the daughter of Nikolai Tokarev, Maya Bolotova, was related to little-known companies (Promsvyazavto, Stroyvip and Industry Import), which are attributed to Promsvyazbank, controlled by brothers Alexei and Dmitry Ananiev. Firm "Stroyvip", with the same address as the bank, in 2002 became one of the shareholders of the largest publishing and printing complex "Press-1" (former "Pravda").

Golden daughter of the head of Transneft Nikolai Tokarev

Materials about the corrupt business of the family of the head of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev, have been published. As it turned out, his daughter Maya Bolotova received contracts totaling more than 8 billion rubles. The money was given to the Irvin-2 concern, which Bolotova owns together with Stanislav Chemezov, the son of the head of Russian Technologies, Sergei Chemezov. In turn, the Tokarev-Bolotov family thanked the Chemezov clan by allowing it to cut the budget of Transneft.

Preferential drugs - shish or die yourself.

Let's start. Russian Technologies is headed by Sergey Chemezov. His offspring, Stanislav Chemezov, is friends with a certain (so far) son of FSO lieutenant colonel Andrei Bolotov, who is married to ... but now it’s interesting to the daughter of the director of the Transneft corporation, Nikolai Tokarev. It is Maya Bolotova (Tokareva) who is so passionate about medicine - through PharmEKO LLC, she owns Irvin 2 LLC, the largest pharmaceutical concern.

According to the registrar (with the last update in February 2010), since 2003 it has been owned on an equal basis by Stanislav Chemezov (son of Sergei Chemezov), Natalya Yakunina (wife of Vladimir Yakunin), Dmitry Artyakov (son of the Governor of the Samara Region Vladimir Artyakov) and Maya Bolotova ( daughter of Transneft President Nikolai Tokarev).

The company of the daughter of the President of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev, bought Kekushev's profitable house on Ostozhenka for 390 million rubles

The company "RPA Estate" became the winner of the auction for the sale of the apartment building of the architect Lev Kekushev on Ostozhenka, 19, building 1, follows from the message of the Department for Competition Policy of Moscow. With an initial cost of the object of 291.5 million rubles. RPA Estate agreed to pay 390 million rubles for it.

According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, RPA Estate is owned by Maya Bolotova (75% of the shares) and Management Company Regionpromaktivy LLC (25%), the sole owner of which, in turn, is Andrey Bolotov. A source close to Regionpromaktivy Management Company previously said that Maya Bolotova is the daughter of Transneft President Nikolai Tokarev, and Andrei Bolotov is her husband. It was not possible to contact them yesterday, no one answered the telephone of RPA Estate on Monday evening. The representative of Transneft declined to comment, explaining that the Bolotovs had nothing to do with the company directly.

Kekushev's three-storey profitable house with a total area of ​​1500 sq. m - an object of cultural heritage of federal significance. The building was renovated in the early 2000s. 390 million rubles for this complex - "absolutely the market price," says Alan Baloev from Knight Frank.

It was not possible to find out how the Bolotovs plan to use the complex (see inset). On the one hand, the future owner is not limited in the possibilities of using the asset, on the other hand, in the case of a commercial project, he is obliged to maintain the proper condition, appearance and interior of the cultural heritage object, its head Gennady Degtev was quoted in the department's message. The building is best used for offices, Baloev believes. Maria Kotova, managing partner of Blackwood, agrees with him. “The building would be a good fit for the head office of a large company,” she said. However, in her opinion, it would be possible to place an apartment complex or a boutique hotel there. Baloev is sure that the building is not suitable for housing - it is located on the first line of houses near a noisy road and there is no comfortable adjacent territory, and for a hotel the area of ​​​​an apartment building is too small.

Little is known about the Bolotovs' real estate projects. Maya Bolotova, according to SPARK-Interfax, together with the son of the head of Rostec Sergey Chemezov Stanislav and the former adviser to the former president of Russian Railways Vladimir Chernyshev, is a co-owner of the Gelendzhik resort complex Meridian. The Alexei Navalny Anti-Corruption Foundation reported in 2013 that this company owns 0.6 hectares of land in the prestigious area of ​​Gelendzhik, five cottages with a swimming pool and technical outbuildings. Also, Bolotova, according to SPARK-Interfax, is the chairman of the board of the HOA "House on Bryusov".

Relatives of Transneft President Nikolai Tokarev bought Kekushev's tenement house on Ostozhenka

There were other contenders for Kekushev's apartment building: three more companies took part in the auction, according to the capital's competition policy department. In addition to RPA Estate, applications were submitted by Avenue, Platform Finance and Vladislav Senik, an official from the Moscow City Hall said. Several dozen companies with the name "Avenue" are registered in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. It was not possible to find Senik. Until 2013, the owner of Platforma Finance was the Otkritie holding, now it is the Cypriot Sakopa. Platforma Finans was sold several years ago, a representative of Otkritie said, without naming a buyer.

Is the head of Transneft profiting at the expense of the state?

Members of the family of Transneft President Nikolai Tokarev - Maya and Andrey Bolotov - became owners of a tenement house on Ostozhenka.

The Bolotov firm bought the rights to the object from the capital's mayor's office. Taking into account the restoration of the building for a hotel or apartment complex, the total costs of buyers may exceed $9 million. ($6.09 million), which is 34% more than the starting price.

The experts immediately remembered the peculiarities of the family business of the head of a large state corporation.

At the expense of the state?

78.1% of the operator of Russia's main oil pipelines - "Transneft" - belongs to the state. But the benefits from the "black gold" go to friends and relatives of the company's president, Nikolai Tokarev. Data appeared according to which the wife, father-in-law and daughter of Mr. Tokarev, with the help of corrupt tenders from Transneft, acquired a multi-billion dollar hotel business in Croatia.

Balkan trail

Croatia has a 5-star Bellevue hotel with a giant spa that opened last summer in Čikat Bay. Nearby is Villa Hortensia in an elegant Austro-Hungarian villa built in 1912 for 10 suites, with its own garden.

So, he has the most direct relation to the head of Transneft! The state manager has a daughter, Maya Bolotova, who changed her last name after she married Andrey Bolotov. After that, Mr. Bolotov became a major entrepreneur, and a very wealthy person.

"Transneft"

And everything is simple: all this multi-million dollar property, spread over tens of hectares in the bay, officially belongs to four Croatian companies - Katina d.o.o., T.G.A. d.o.o., Magnum XP Nova d.o.o. and "Jadranka d.d."

The founder of the Croatian company T.G.A. d.o.o. was a certain Galina Alekseevna Tokareva, born on September 24, 1951. All the data of this founder completely coincide with the data of the wife of the head of Transneft, Mr. Tokarev.

Thus, Villa Carolina is owned by Katina d.o.o., and the founder of Katina d.o.o. is an offshore company Xerate Investments Limited. And here is the most interesting thing: when acquiring shares of Katina d.o.o. On behalf of the offshore Xerate Investments Limited, none other than the son-in-law of the head of Transneft Tokarev, Andrey Bolotov, acted by proxy. He, Andrey Bolotov, subsequently became the director of Katina d.o.o.

How did it happen? In the late nineties, Bolotov worked at the Russian-German Leasing Company (it provided equipment for leasing to Russian enterprises, Sberbank was the main shareholder), and since 2000, at Deutsche Leasing Vostok. In 2000, Ingosstrakh caused great surprise in the market by signing a $50 million property insurance contract with Deutsche Leasing Vostok without even looking at the property itself.

Nikolai Tokarev, Head of Transneft

After Tokarev became the general director of Zarubezhneft, Bolotov worked in a state-owned company since 2001! In the same year, he became an employee of ITERA Holding, and in 2002, also of Gazkhiminvest (owned by ITERA), as well as the Zarit joint venture for oil and gas production on the Turkmen shelf of the Caspian Sea. Zarit was founded in 2002 by Zarubezhneft, Rosneft and ITERA. In 2003, in addition to Zarit, Andrey Bolotov was related to the ITERA Gazneftekhim Company, and since 2005 he worked at Vneshtorgbank.

Again, Bolotov was associated with ITERA, then his sister Olga was with LUKOIL Overseas Service Ltd. Nikolai Tokarev was not entirely alien to LUKOIL either. In 2005, he received income from an affiliate of LUKOIL, the Russian Innovative Fuel and Energy Company (RITEK).

Maya Bolotova by 2004 was related to little-known companies (“Promsvyazavto”, “Stroyvip” and “Industry Import”), which are attributed to Promsvyazbank, controlled by brothers Alexei and Dmitry Ananiev.

Maya Bolotova

The Stroyvip company, with the same address as the bank, in 2002 became one of the shareholders of the largest publishing and printing complex Press-1 (former Pravda). By 2005, Bolotova was receiving income from Caprice-Stell. At that time, the company was part of a group of shareholders (the management company Promsvyaz, Promsvyazinvest, Dokhodnaya Investment Company) owning 2.28 percent of the shares of the largest Russian fixed-line communications operator CenterTelecom OJSC.

But we missed one more hotel - Bellevue, located next to Villa Carolina, belongs to the company Jadranka d.d., the largest shareholder of which is a certain company Beta ulaganya d.o.o., which is owned by the Russian OOO Managing Company Promsvyaz. This same Promsvyaz, it turns out, is not just an LLC, but “the trustee of the closed-end mutual fund of long-term direct investments“ De Fund ”, that is, the office simply manages someone’s big money, investing, for example, in the Bellevue hotel!

And here additional intrigues come up - a member of the Supervisory Board of the Jadranka dd company, which owns both the Bellevue hotel and the bulk of other real estate in the Čikat Bay of the Croatian island of Losinj, is a certain Kresimir Filipovich. He also works as the first vice-president of Velesstroy.

The state-owned company has a subsidiary, Transneft-Far East, which actually named the winners of tenders for the construction of a branch from the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean (ESPO) pipeline system to Rosneft's Komsomolsk oil refinery without a tender. Two tenders for the construction of 146.7 km of the oil pipeline were won by the Velesstroy company, which will perform the work for 7.06 billion rubles.

It should be noted that Velesstroy is one of the main contractors of Transneft, participates in the construction of the ESPO, BPS-2, Purpe-Samotlor oil pipelines. The company increased revenue from 33 billion rubles. in 2013 to 50 billion rubles. in 2014, Velesstroy has received contracts for more than 200 billion rubles in recent years!

But the piquancy is that Velstroy, through a chain of offshore companies registered in Cyprus, is directly related to the Croatian oligarch Mihailo Perenchevich. The latter is not only a citizen of his sunny country, but also has a US passport. However, he conducts his business mainly with Russia, or rather, with Transneft.

And if anyone has any doubts, then here are some more amazing facts that speak of the close connection of the Tokarev-Bolotov family with expensive real estate on the Croatian coast. Katina d.o.o. and TGA d.o.o. registered at the same address. Subsequently, TGA d.o.o. changed its address, moving to the location of Jadranka Trgovine d.o.o. - a subsidiary of Yadranka dd, owned by Promsvyaz LLC.

Interestingly, TGA d.o.o., officially owned by Maya Bolotova, was located at this address for free. And an accountant at Katina d.o.o. and TGA d.o.o. was one and the same - this is a certain Milenka Vidulich. Why the extra spending in a family business.

By the way, back in 2005, Bolotova received official income from a certain company, Caprice-Stell. At that time, Kapriz-Stell was part of the group of shareholders owning 2.28 percent of the shares of the largest operator of the Russian fixed-line communications OJSC CenterTelecom. This group included the Promsvyaz company, which, through the Croatian companies Beta Ulaganya d.o.o. and Jadranka d.d., owns the Bellevue Hotel and other real estate in Cikat Bay on the island of Lošinj.

Velstroy became the main contractor of Transneft, having received tenders for 7 billion rubles, building other oil pipelines, and that the daughter and son-in-law of the head of Transneft, Maya and Andrey Bolotov, became owners of multi-million dollar real estate on the sea coast in Croatia.

Mani, mani?

Transneft has been repeatedly criticized for its uncharacteristic informational secrecy for a public company, which allowed the “Croatian scheme” to materialize.

Thus, the well-known opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who is a minority shareholder of the company, repeatedly tried to obtain various documents on its activities, including minutes of meetings of the board of directors, but could not do it!

By the way, the management of the corporation "throws" and its minority shareholders. Recently it became known that minority shareholders are also outraged by the management of Transneft. The corporation pays dividends on preferred shares 2.5 times less than on ordinary shares. This means that Tokarev's managers do not comply with the legislation in the field of privatization.

Nikolai Tokarev has been managing Transneft since October 13, 2007. In February 2008, the Accounts Chamber of Russia decided to check the spending on the construction of Eastern Siberia - the Pacific Ocean.

The department's statement said that 78.5 billion rubles out of almost 250 rubles spent on the ESPO by the end of the first half of 2008 was distributed "without tenders", which indicates that the regulatory documents of Transneft contain "a broad interpretation of cases attracting contractors without holding tenders.

Then Sergei Stepashin, who led the auditors, during his speech in the State Duma, said that an audit by the Accounts Chamber revealed the amount of damage during the construction of the ESPO at 3.5 billion rubles, and that a criminal case was initiated against the management of Transneft on this fact. But nothing came of it...

Mr. Tokarev is a very influential person, a former FSB general, a member of United Russia, and his wife owns a large estate in the village of Akulinino, where, in addition to her, the estates of Yakunin, Chemezov, Rotenberg and other officials and businessmen close to Vladimir Putin and also family friends are located Tokarev.

Great schemer?

From Tokarev's personal biography, according to the report of the UN Commission of Inquiry Paul Volcker, who investigated the fraud around the UN Oil for Food program, two firms with the name Gunvor collaborated with Saddam Hussein's regime.

Trade with Iraq went through Zarubezhneft, which was headed by a good friend of the head of Gunvor "and Timchenko, later - the head of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev! According to Paul Volcker's report, Gunvor was involved in a total of about 500 million worth of oil sales dollars.

Every year, as a result of inaccurate operation of oil metering devices, surpluses are formed in the Transneft pipeline system. These surpluses are sold by Transneft itself, and the proceeds, according to the company itself, are directed to charitable purposes. Here begins the most interesting.

In total, in 2007, the transport monopoly donated 7.2 billion rubles to charity. (in 2006 - 5.3 billion rubles), of which 644 million rubles. received the Assistance Fund, and 422 million rubles. - the interregional public fund for assistance to federal state security bodies "Kremlin-9" (created in 2001 to "support employees and veterans of the FSO"). In 2009, 3.2 billion rubles were allocated for these purposes, in 2010 - at least 3.98 billion rubles.

In May 2009, Transneft disclosed its beneficiaries for the first time. Among them are such as the fund to assist employees and veterans of the Federal Security Service "Kremlin-9". The peak of charitable payments (more than 5 billion rubles) fell on the third quarter of 2007. This is exactly the time when Nikolai Tokarev replaced Semyon Vainshtok in the management of Transneft.

It should be noted that in 2009, 749 million rubles of one of the Transneft subsidiaries was donated to a certain international charitable foundation Konstantinovsky, where Nikolai Tokarev is a member of the board of trustees. But the money evaporated in an unknown direction.

If the authorities really want to defeat corruption, then they need to closely deal with the head of Transneft and his relatives!
