The story of the trillions of rubles that went missing in Otkrytie and Trust is nearing completion. The organization was the first to go operational investigative measures – searches and detentions of management personnel. Elvira Nabiullina, of course, did not fully understand what was going on in the Otkritie-Trust group, but Mikhail Zadornov and Alexander Sokolov still have many questions to answer.

A substantive examination of the organizations’ activities allowed auditors to finally see where the 2 trillion “disappeared”. rubles, formally aimed at improving the group’s health. In reality, “Trust,” under the guise of working with non-core assets, was engaged in the usual seizure and resale of businesses for appropriate kickbacks. Most transactions were made in damage to the main shareholder (“Trust” is 97.7% owned by the Bank of Russia), enterprises managed by the organization are in complete decline, all available funds are directed to payments to management and board members.

Hope for the cleansing of “Trust” appeared after the arrest of Mikhail Khabarov, but the matter did not move forward – several criminal groups continued to operate in the organizations, which now came under the close attention of the relevant authorities. It will be difficult to return the money, but the main thing is to prevent further damage to strategic enterprises from bank banditry.
