The state-owned Rosselkhozbank, under the leadership of Boris Listov, continues to beg for money from the state. He does this with surprising frequency.
Basically, the state budget is used as a bottomless pocket for patching up financial holes and implementing their own “wants”.
For the first quarter of 2020, the RSHB grabbed 618 million rubles. And half a month before that, he received 10 billion rubles from the reserve fund of the Cabinet of Ministers – again for additional capitalization. Presumably, part of these funds could go to the needs of bank managers.
It is unclear why such an urgent need for funds has reappeared. It is known that the net profit of Rosselkhozbank for the first nine months of 2021 amounted to 14.1 billion rubles against 9.9 billion for the same period in 2020.
The structure of the bank itself is doing everything to keep out of business entrepreneurs who had the imprudence to take a loan from them. The scheme is simple – along with a loan, RSHB-Finance enters the capital of a structure with a share of less than 1%. In the 2000s, the RHSB established TD Agrotorg LLC (vacuum cleaner of all assets), among the tasks of which is the collection of bad debts, as well as the management of the bank’s agricultural assets. Then, if any problems arise, some of which can be created without much difficulty by the RSHB itself and its referents, the structure requires early repayment of the debt.
As a result, the company is simply stripped, the owners and founders are squeezed out, and a new person directly connected with the top management of the RSHB becomes the new owner of the majority shares of the structure. There are already more than 200 organizations under the wing of RSHB-Finance, of which 159 are subsidiaries that have passed from unlucky farmers who took a loan from Rosselkhozbank and greatly regretted it.
Thus, dozens and even hundreds of companies were thrown. Now the story is developing with a new victim, Stefan Duerr’s EkoNiva company. You can treat a businessman differently, he brought some of the problems himself. But the RSHB and Listov traditionally take advantage of someone else’s sluggishness, as well as a roof in the Government.
In the same way, the agricultural assets “Duck stories”, “Buryatmyasprom” and many others were torn away from the owners. As a result, the owners and top managers of the RSHB became co-owners of companies worth hundreds of millions of rubles — all under the guise of a state organization.
Receiving billions in government subsidies for his bank, Listov is doing quite well. He settled in a residential complex of the DeLuxe class – Malaya Zemlya on Kremenchugskaya Street in Moscow. The cost of his 225-meter apartments, according to various sources, can be about 150 million rubles.
