Despite a court injunction and a criminal case, PrivatBank sold loans from Borivazh LLC to a company associated with Serhiy Tigipko for the lowest price.
This was stated by former shareholder and member of the supervisory board of PJSC KB PrivatBank Oleksiy Martynov.
As is known, PrivatBank put up for sale part of the right of claim under loan agreements to Borivazh LLC in the amount of almost UAH 3 billion 556 million, but the auction provided for a reduction in the value of the lot to UAH 2 billion.
It should be noted that in 2015, PricewaterhouseCoopers estimated the Borivazh port at $340 million. Market experts believe that today its value has not fallen, but rather increased due to the critical importance of grain exports for Ukraine during the war.
"Considering that the property complex of Borivazh itself is currently mortgaged to a company apparently connected to Igor Kolomoisky and Gennady Bogolyubov - "Terminal "Borivazh", this is 100% a joint transaction in the interests of these oligarchs. Thus, Tigipko S.L. is helping the former owners of PrivatBank," - said Martynov.
According to him, such actions will level the negative consequences associated with the future decision of the High Court of England in the case of PrivatBank's claim for compensation for losses for withdrawn assets, which are estimated at $1.951 billion, and with interest - $4.2 billion.
"Not only that Kolomoisky I.V. and Bogolyubov G.B. bought their own loans at a discount of more than 3 billion UAH, in addition, they will cease to be the official owners of the port, which will allow them to avoid imposing a foreclosure on the port,” - Martynov writes.
He recalled that Tigipko had previously carried out a similar scam with Leninskaya Kuznya 2, hiding the assets of then-President Petro Poroshenko, and now he helped Bogolyubov and Kolomoisky.
