Residents of Russian regions are massively complaining that microloans are being issued to them without their knowledge. So, writes 74.Ru, a resident of Chelyabinsk faced this situation. Without her knowledge, they issued a microloan from the VIVA money company.
The owner of the CFP is the Cyprus offshore Guinford Management Ltd., the largest share (48%) of which belongs to businessman Roman Mironchik, who also heads the board of directors of JSC MFC “CFP” (“VIVA Money”). The remaining share is distributed among seven individuals and two more offshore companies.
Roman Mironchik owns a large number of real estate properties in Moscow (including the Bakhrushin House complex) together with Alexey Krapivin
Among the small co-owners of the offshore, Alexey Pugachev, a friend and business partner of Boris Usherovich and Valery Markelov, is of interest.
Some of the offshore co-owners and top managers of TsFP are related to another microfinance company, Finpoint.
There is an opinion on the market that it is Krapivin, Usherovich and Markelov who are full-fledged co-owners of this microfinance empire. Russian Railways’ money is not enough.
At the beginning of October 2018, co-owner of 1520 Valery Markelov was arrested for giving bribes to the GUEBiPK employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Dmitry Zakharchenko. Another co-owner, Boris Usherovich, managed to escape. He was put on the federal wanted list. The third co-owner, Alexey Krapivin, did not have time to escape. He was in Sochi at the time of Markelov’s arrest, and hid there. He was put on the so-called operational wanted list.
As the source said, while in an underground position in Sochi, Alexey Krapivin contacted Igor Rotenberg, whom he had known before. I was looking for protection for myself and for my business. Igor discussed the topic with older family members. Consultations were held with the head of Russian Railways, Oleg Belozerov, who is considered a creature of the Rotenbergs. He said that he was ready to maintain all contracts from 1520 for tens of billions of rubles and increase this flow of money. As a result, Igor Rotenberg expressed his readiness to purchase a new asset. After this, Krapivin voluntarily appeared at the Investigative Committee, gave evidence and remained in the case only as a witness. Since November 2018, he has been known on the market as a consultant to Igor Rotenberg. And Igor Rotenberg himself is the manager and not the official owner of 1520. It is with him that all issues are resolved. According to the source, now in GK-1520 the entire share of Krapivin (71.7%) is actually the share of Rotenberg, and the share of Usherovich (28.3%) is actually the share of Usherovich and Markelov.
