PRIME-TASS. Moskovsky Mezhrespublikanskiy Vinodelcheskiy Zavod (MMVZ) that, according to the media, is controlled by former Bank of Moscow CEO Andrey Borodin, has bought a 19.9% interest in Russian National Commercial Bank (RNCB, a former subsidiary of the Bank of Moscow), Prime-TASS wired quoting RNCB.
The latter has no information on the day when a record was made in the buyer’s customer account, as the securities are under nominal holding, the news agency reported.
At the same time, Ridder Holding pulled out of RNCB. The beneficial owner of this company is Greek citizen Christos Ioannides.
MMVZ is part of Mezhrespublikansky vinzavod (MVZ) that is one of the Bank of Moscow’s major debtors. MVZ’s debt to the Moscow-based lending institution is estimated at Rub 12 bln.
RNCB’s major shareholders are Khimpromstroy (19.96%), Garanttekhnologia (19.49%) and Remslade Holding (19.9%). The Federal Agency for Federal Property Management holds a 0.0072% interest.
In early September Kommersant business daily wrote quoting Valery Miroshnikov, deputy head of the Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA), that the state-run corporation intends to apply to the Bank of Russia that it is reasonable to perform audit at the Bank of Moscow’s former subsidiary. DIA supposes that dozens of billion rubles might have been withdrawn from the parent banks through RNCB’s accounts.
RNCB, as the business daily noted, is run by former executives of Mint Yard Capital that, according to unofficial information, managed non-core assets of the former Bank of Moscow CEO Andrey Borodin.
