The decision of the Supreme Anti-Corruption Court came into force, according to which PIN Bank (“First Investment Bank”), owned by the president of Moscow CSKA Evgeny Ginner, was nationalized in Ukraine. This was reported by the press service of the Appeals Chamber of the VAKS.

" Namely, 88.890583% of the bank's shares were collected to the state's income..

It is noted that the bank was confiscated at the suit of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. In particular, the Ministry of Justice applied against Giner the sanction provided for in paragraph 1-1 of the first part of Article 4 of the Law of Ukraine "

The decision entered into force from the moment of announcement and is not subject to appeal in cassation..

It is reported that Evgeny Giner is the president of CSKA Moscow. He is under Ukrainian sanctions, in particular, because of his connection with the Rostec corporation, which supplies weapons and ammunition to the Russian army..

Last year, on this basis, law enforcement agencies secured a court arrest on the shares of PIN Bank, one of Giner's key assets in Ukraine..

During the investigation, information was checked on the legality of obtaining and using by the bank for refinancing a loan in the amount of more than UAH 1.6 billion. The financial institution received these funds after the start of a large-scale offensive. The amount is more than 50% of the bank's assets and more than 5.5 times the amount of the authorized capital of the institution, which is contrary to the current legislation.

Recall that the NBU decided to overhaul the legislation in order to take another bank with a Russian owner into state ownership.. In particular, a draft law has been submitted to the parliament for consideration, the adoption of which will allow the nationalization of Sens Bank, aka the former Alfa Bank, but according to a new procedure that did not exist in the country before..

The main idea of \u200b\u200bthe bill is to take the bank into state ownership under a simplified procedure. And so that this can be done not only with a bank that has lost liquidity, but simply if Ukrainian and international sanctions are applied against the owners of such an institution.

This will be the second draft law within six months aimed at the nationalization of banks in Ukraine.



The first one, on the nationalization of systemic banks under martial law, was adopted by the Verkhovna Rada back in autumn. The law created the conditions for the nationalization of systemically important banks to be put on a de facto conveyor belt (according to the same scheme that PrivatBank was nationalized at one time, but in war conditions).

By the way, the state budget of Ukraine has already received the first 3.1 billion. hryvnia as a result of the nationalization of several Russian banks - "
