After the start of the war in Ukraine, the United Kingdom and the European Union imposed sanctions against Abramovich. The US did not, but the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the FBI launched an investigation into the consulting firm Concord Management, which controlled the businessman's $ 6 billion investment in hedge funds (the money is actually frozen). A week ago, Canada announced its intention to confiscate $26 million from Abramovich's Granite Capital Holdings and use the proceeds to rebuild Ukraine. It will be bought by a group of investors. Most of the money should go to charity, and Abramovich will get almost nothing, the agency writes. A spokesman for the businessman did not respond to a request.
