One of the few departments that have been created on the territory of four regions is the department of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service. The FSFM is known for monitoring cases of money laundering obtained by criminal means, and also maintains a list of terrorists and extremists (it includes, for example, Alexey Navalny and Facebook owners). The new department of Rosfinmonitoring was registered in Donetsk, Ivan Anichkin became the head of the department there. Prior to that, he was deputy head of the department for Crimea and Sevastopol, for which he fell under the sanctions of Ukraine.
But a native of Krasnoyarsk, Honored Economist of Russia Yuri Chikhanchin, who has been the head of the Russian Federal Financial Monitoring Service for the past 15 years, is one of the few representatives of the Russian elite against whom Western sanctions have not been imposed. Undoubtedly, the top leadership of the country (primarily Vladimir Putin) trusts this man. Last year, the official turned 70 years old – the age limit for being in public office. But the head of state made an exception for Chikhanchin and extended his term of service by personal decree. The same thing happened this year.
Despite the huge bureaucratic experience, little is known about this person. Even Wikipedia page consists of literally a couple of dozen sentences. It is still unknown about his family or about his property. More precisely, it was not known. The “interlocutor” found out that the relatives of the seemingly poor Chikhanchin achieved great success in business. In the best Russian traditions.
@infobomb, 24.02.2021 12:18: Director of Rosfinmonitoring Yuri Chikhanchin slandered Putin and stole a billion. Thinks so Igor Bederov, former security guard at the US Consulate General in St. Petersburg. Chikhanchin, a 70-year-old KGB officer, promised to learn how to deanonymize cashers and crypto owners. Knocked out a yard on it. Reported: they started spying on cryptocurrencies. Created a unique system “Transparent Blockchain”. The American comrade Bederov writes that all this is a lie. And the weak Rosfinmonitoring is not capable of even the simplest thing – to check the addresses of crypto-exchanges. It’s hard to pick someone to blame. After all, the president does not know what blockchain is – Sidebar K.ru
@irozysk, 02/23/2021 06:14 PM: On Friday, February 19, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a working meeting with Yury Chikhanchin, director of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service. On it, the Russians learned that a service has already been created in the Russian Federation, which “will make it possible to track transactions in cryptocurrency in order to identify criminal activity.”
Recall that Rosfinmonitoring twice (according to public procurement data) developed such an application. In August 2018, 195.5 ml were spent on this. rub. from the budget. On December 31, 2018, the service was put into service and … in November 2019, it suddenly turned out to be non-working. At a conference organized by St. Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, a representative of Rosfinmonitoring admitted that “the service does not meet the requirements of the terms of reference and is not even able to determine whether a crypto wallet belongs to a particular exchange.
In August 2020, Rosfinmonitoring announced its desire to create a system for tracking crypto transactions using artificial intelligence (AI). It is reported that the prototype of the system (based on data from the bitcoin network) was developed jointly with the Physical Institute. Lebedev and tested in the field of countering the drug business. It is not known whether this was a new service, or it was an update for the 2018 service, but the cost of the new system required another 760 million rubles. from the federal budget – 440 million rubles. in 2021, 230 million rubles. in 2022 and 90 million rubles. in 2023. — Inset K.ru
business uphill
In 2002, Yuri Chikhanchin joined the Russian Committee for Financial Monitoring (the future Rosfinmonitoring). And, by a happy coincidence, at the same time his wife Margarita began her business career. On August 5, 2002, she, along with several comrades, becomes the owner of a production and commercial firm “Barguzin”. It is still not very clear why this was necessary, because the company was liquidated the very next day.
The rest of Chikhanchina’s business was more durable. To this day, she remains the founder of the production and commercial firm “Sinegor”located in Krasnoyarsk. This company is engaged in the rental of real estate.
However, there are more successful businessmen in the family of the head of Rosfinmonitoring. More specifically, a businesswoman.
Dairy Shores
In 2015 on the TV channel “Present Time” * there was a report, the main character of which was the Krasnoyarsk farmer Anatoly Adashkin. He bought the abandoned Semiradskoye Lake and at his own expense turned it into a popular resort.
“I did it not because of it, but in spite of it. There were many problems with officials, but if you just go with the flow, then nothing will happen, ”Adashkin said in an interview with the TV channel.
According to the businessman, the local authorities did not help in any way in this project, he developed it exclusively at his own expense.
Adashkin by that time was quite a successful entrepreneur. His most famous asset was LLC “Emelyanovskoye”, which owned an agricultural enterprise of the same name in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. First of all, the company is known by the brand “Emelyanovskoe milk”.
On November 25, 2016, Anatoly Adashkin died at the age of 75. After that, the owners of Emelyanovskoye LLC began to change. So, Yulia Chikhanchina, the full namesake of the daughter-in-law of the head of Rosfinmonitoring, took over a quarter of the company’s share. Interestingly, shortly after that, Yemelyanovskoye received the largest government contract in its history. Almost 8 million rubles. the company was paid by penal colony No. 31 for the supply of wheat.
In general, public procurements, in which Yemelyanovskoye participated, are noteworthy: they all took place on a non-alternative basis. “Emelyanovskoye” was the only participant and, accordingly, the winner. However, one fact spoils the success story: not all of his relatives liked the section of Adashkin’s company.
Dispute for a share
In October 2019, Adashkin’s daughter Natalia filed a lawsuit. The case concerned an extraordinary general meeting of the owners of Yemelyanovsky. After the death of the entrepreneur, his company was divided among eight founders, including Natalia, follows from the data of the SPARK system. But then strange things began.
In early October 2019, an extraordinary meeting of owners was convened. On it, the authorized capital of the company was increased from 1.6 to 5 million rubles. Subsequently, after a series of financial procedures, Natalya Adashkina dropped out of the owners of Yemelyanovsky.
The full chain of what happened is lost – it is not described either in the decisions of the courts or in the data of the counterparty system. But it is known that the daughter of a businessman appealed against the same meeting of owners. And she asked to be recognized as insignificant. The arbitration court dismissed the claim. Adashkina appealed against this decision several times, but in the end something happened and she refused to appeal right in court.
Litigation did not interfere with Yulia Chikhanchina’s business in any way. Soon after that, she became the owner of the lake-park “Emelyanovskoye”, which rents cottages near Krasnoyarsk. And the agricultural enterprise of the same name last year received a record profit of 83 million rubles.
son with gratitude
Andrey Chikhanchin, like no one else, fits the proverb “An apple from an apple tree.” He was educated at the Academy of Budget and Treasury of the Ministry of Finance of Russia. And at just 26 years old, he became the head of transport projects at the State Corporation “Bank for Development and Foreign Economic Affairs”, and soon – the director of the corporate finance department of Aeroflot PJSC.
In 2009, Chikhanchin Jr. joined the board of directors of the Terminal company, which managed Terminal D, one of the most expensive Sheremetyevo projects. Since September 2018, Chikhanchin has served as Deputy General Director of PJSC Aeroflot for Commerce and Finance. In August of this year, he went on promotion, becoming the first deputy head of the airline for commerce and finance. Has the gratitude of the Minister of Transport.
“Novaya Gazeta”, 11/17/2020, “Inherited Principles”: According to the register of legal entities, the full namesake of Chikhanchin in 2010 was a co-owner of the Krasnoyarsk full-cycle furniture factory Mekran with a capacity of 13.5 thousand cubic meters. m per year. During the same period, the company attracted more than 5 billion rubles. investments, most of which came from VEB, where he worked. — Inset K.ru
